The Perfect Summer Dress - Deborah Savage

1901 Nordstrom Dot Popover Maxi Dress / brown saddle crossbody bag (budget vs luxury) / Calson Finn Sandals (sold out, available here on eBay)

Whether you’re going for a dreamy and romantic dinner date with your soul mate or a fun and happening day trip with your girls, a shoulder-baring summer dress is always flattering. You don’t have to show A LOT of skin to be sexy. And summertime is the perfect time to show off a little skin!

While browsing at Nordstrom Rack, I came upon this classic navy blue shoulder baring dress that features a subtle pattern of embroidered circlets flowing throughout the darling dress. It belongs to the label 1901 that is Nordstrom’s own clothing line, and I must say it has got some on trend pieces.

Not only does this summer dress look cute, but it also gives off that effortlessly stylish vibe that we as women here in SoCal aim for! You do not have to do much with this beautiful dress.

I am a total fan of crossbody bags. They come in a variety of fun designs and I can’t leave home without it! For some crazy reason I have a second one in a different color in my car to match outfits if my main one doesn’t work with my #OOTD.

Trust me, crossbody bags are the ultimate accessory that look amazing with everything and I love that it is hands free because you can strap it around your shoulders allowing you to comfortable hold your child’s hand, bag of grocery or push a shopping cart with ease.

Nordstrom’s line 1901 boasts a fine collection of stylish pieces that are perfect for the summer season including this summer dress. From striped silhouettes to bold floral patterns, and the price points are too shabby either! These are the two 1901 t-shirts I just purchased today on Nordstrom.com.
