2. Erica’s tunic swing dress

This Amazon summer dress is the cutest staple piece and a perfect addition to your wardrobe!

Plus, there are a whopping 40 different styles, colors, and even some patterns to choose from!
Here’s what Erica had to say about her swing dress:
“This dress is so perfect! I live in Florida, so this kind of clothing is much needed! I love that this dress is lightweight but not see-through by any means. It’s very comfortable and flowy!
I chose the burnt orange color as I thought it would be cute to wear around for most of the year here. You can dress it down with flip flops, dress it up with heels, and even toss some cute low-cut boots in the mix once fall starts to approach again. I love the versatility of this dress!”
*Erica is 5’3″ and wearing a size small, which she says is true to size for her.
3. Jessica’s pleated flowy dress
This highly rated Auseilily casual dress has over 16,000 reviews! The fabric is extremely soft and stretchy, but it is cinched at the upper waist due to the pleated waistline. The material is breathable, and it’s complimentary to pretty much everyone! Note that this dress should be hand washed and may be damaged if thrown into a washing machine.
Our reader Jessica looks amazing in it, and I absolutely love the way she styled it with a long necklace! There are 45 color and pattern options to choose from, but the mauve color is perfect for summer.
Here’s what Jessica has to say abouther pleated flowy dress:
“The dress is super soft (probably the softest dress I have ever worn). In all honesty, the design of the dress is not my favorite and the pleats start at the waistline which doesn’t look the best on me. But I love the pockets and will definitely continue to wear it because of how incredibly comfortable it is!”
4. Jami’s pencil dress
This highly rated short-sleeve pencil dress with a belt from Amazon screams elegance and beauty! Not only does it look very similar to dresses we’ve seen from Anthropologie, but it’s much more affordable, with prices starting at only $30.99! 🙌🏻 Plus, not only does it look amazing on Jami, but it’s totally flattering on all body types!
And, thanks to the cotton/polyester/spandex blend, this fitted short-sleeve pencil dress with a belt creates stunning curves without being uncomfortable. Plus, the short batwing sleeves will keep you cool on a hot summer day.
Here’s what Jami had to say about her pencil dress:
“What I love most about this dress is its classic style and versatility. It can easily be dressed up with a pair of heels for business attire, donned with a summery hat and flip flops for the beach, or paired with sneakers and a jean jacket for a comfy casual vibe. And I love that it even has pockets – it’s the perfect dress!”
*Jami is 5’6″ and wearing a size XS, which she says is true to size for her.

5. Saylor’s swing dress
This cute swing dress is so inexpensive and perfect for spring or summer! Plus, it comes in 45 beautiful colors and patterns, so you’re sure to find something that fits your style! I love how Saylor (Bryn’s daughter) paired hers with a cute jean jacket to give it a more casual look for get-togethers on the weekend.
Here’s what she had to say about her Amazon dress:
“I really like how comfortable and soft this dress is and that it can easily be dressed up or down by adding a jacket or sweater and different pieces of jewelry. My only complaint is that it is a bit modest for my taste – I am 19 and I typically wear dresses that have thinner shoulder straps and dip down a bit more in the front and/or back (but my mom says she likes it just the way it is!) 😉“
*Saylor is 5’8″ and wearing a size small, which she says is true to size for her.
6. Erica’s t-shirt dress
Amazon KORSIS Women’s T-Shirt Dress $24+ (regularly $46.99)
A t-shirt dress is basically every woman’s best friend since it’s such a flattering fit. The cut of this dress is flattering for any shape or size! It also comes in 36 different colors and patterns and um…hello!… it has pockets! Total wardrobe win in my book! 😍
I really love this green color Erica chose for her dress. It looks great with her black heels. Adding some gold accent jewelry to dress it up would just complement this color so perfectly, too!
Here’s what Erica had to say about her Amazon dress:
“This dress is FUN!! I really like it a lot – you can totally dress it down and wear it as a beach/pool cover-up with flip flops, or dress it up with heels and a nice necklace! I love that it is super flowy! I actually really like the green color, too. I almost always order black dresses because I love back apparel, but I made myself try a different color I wouldn’t typically order, and I’m a huge fan!”
*Erica is 5’3″ and wearing a size Small, which is true to size for her.

Here’s what we had to say about this Amazon dress:
“I love this dress! I’m very simple when it comes to the clothes I buy. I try to invest in staple pieces that can be worn in many different ways and go with almost anything. This dress was so inexpensive, and I was totally impressed by the quality. Plus, it’s extremely versatile! I would easily spend twice as much if I had tried it on in a department store!” – Sara
*Sara is 5’4″ and wearing a size XS which is true to size for her.
“I love this dress! It feels like super soft cotton and is so comfy with the pockets! For a more dressed-up look, I love to layer it with vests, necklaces, and cardigans; and it’s also perfect just with flip flops for the pool. It doesn’t get more versatile than that! And I’ve been wearing it for the last year constantly, and I’m so happy to say it washes very well!” – Lina

Fun post, thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome, Lisa! ❤️ Thanks for the feedback.
Odd the first dress says “no stretch” when it has 5% spandex listed. This is why I never order clothes from Amazon – I don’t trust the descriptions to be accurate.
