Shecky’s

Memorial Day is coming up, and the best way to kick off the summer is to host or attend a fun outdoor event! Whether it’s a brunch, barbecue, company picnic, concert or outdoor wedding, you know you want to wear an easy-breezy dress, but you’re not sure which style you should pick.

A cute frock in a light fabric such as cotton or linen is appropriate for daytime events—just remember to bring a cardigan or light blazer for night, both to dress it up and since even the warmest evenings can get quite chilly!

What’s not to love about this nautical Stripe Chiffon Dress (SALE: $34.50) from Delia’s? Pair with some wedges and a light cardigan, and it takes you anywhere from an afternoon brunch to a nighttime barbecue in style.
