With everything they do, mothers should be celebrated every day of the year. But alas, everyone has busy lives (run efficiently because of them, of course) and that's just not feasible. That's why Mother's Day is so important! Take the day to honor her, whether it be with a heartfelt card, a bouquet of flowers, or a spending the day together.

If that Mother's Day activity includes say a brunch or an event where you want to look your best, then you'll need a special Mother's Day outfit. Since it's springtime, the easiest way to dress up is right there in the phrase: a dress! From trendy midi dresses that give you a little more coverage to cute floral dresses that celebrate spring, you'll be sure to find a least a few Mother's Day dresses to choose from right here.

Whether you're the woman of the hour, a sister, a daughter, a daughter-in-law, or just a family friend, every option on this list can just be popped on with a cute pair of flats, heels, or sandals, and off you go! And of course, they're all versatile picks that would be great for a more casual wedding guest dress, a baby or bridal shower, or any other spring or summer event you might attend.
