I’m not going to lie—I shop on Amazonat least three times a week. Between buying cute linen rompers for my baby, best-selling fiction books to comfort me through quarantine, and my beloved English breakfast tea, I tend to rack up a lot of mileage on my Amazon odometer. Lately, I’ve been using the easy and convenient one-stop retailer more than ever to stock up on warm-weather wardrobe essentials, from cute shorts to tank tops, but it’s been easy summer dresses, in particular, that have been high up on my wish list.
Shopping on Amazon can feel overwhelming, so I weeded through countless casual dresses to find the coolest and most versatile frocks to live in throughout the warm-weather months. Out of the 27 I saved to my cart, I ordered 12 and kept four. Scroll below to see the keepers along with the other absolute favorites I may or may not have already bought.
I first saw this loose and cool dress on fashion influencer Jacey Duprie and was eager to try it for myself. I love the fact that it's flowy and non-restrictive (ideal when I want to feel comfortable yet put-together while working from home). It's easy to dress up and down with the right accessories and shoes. I'm wearing a size small, and it still fits quite loose, so I do recommend sizing down. Pair it with sporty sandals or minimalist slides and gold hoops.A white linen dress has been high up on my summer wish list, as it's ideal for looking effortlessly chic and keeping cool throughout the sweltering summer months.

It has the added bonus of having handy pockets. (As a mom, I always love a dress with pockets!)
