Psst: Can we tell you a secret? Have you ever wondered how some women look effortlessly put together yet casual and comfortable at the same time? Well, we're here to tell you that it's easier than it seems, especially in warm weather. All you have to do is pop on cute summer dresses. You just have to find one that fits you well. And the easiest of those to pop on, the least fussy, and the most flattering on all body types are shirt dresses.

Our Top Picks

A T-shirt dress combines the casual comfort of your favorite tee and elegance of a flirty little dress. And while most of the dresses on this list are shorter with crewnecks, there are plenty that offer different styles and lengths. Go for super trendy midi dresses or long and flowy maxi dresses if that's more your thing. Either way, all you need to do is switch up your footwear to dress it up or down. They look just as cute with a pair of comfortable heels or espadrilles as they do with white sneakers or your comfortable flip-flops.

Did we also mention how cute T-shirt dresses look in transitional weather, too? Buy one for summer and then as the weather cools, pop on your favorite jean jacket and a pair of ankle boots and you've got an entirely different look that's just as comfortable and fashionable. So now that the secret's out, it's really up for you to decide which one of these options will keep you looking casually chic no matter the weather!
