[Anonymous]

Also interested in recs on jackets to wear with these dresses. Other than the classic denim. Any other good jacket recs to throw in?

Just saw a bunch of cute dresses on the Pact website, too. And some that look like frumpy nightgowns. It's a mix.

I got some cute sleeveless linen dresses at Kolks for super cheap. I don;t like to spend too much on a summer dress cause once you sweat all summer its not likely to last for many years.

You could look for jean style jackets in linen.

I got this at Kohls. Good length, I am 5'9" and hits just right.

That's a dupe of the Faherty dress - it looks very cute and also very wearable!

I like that Liberty maxi a lot. I would get the green but I've already bought 3 green dresses, and I feel like if I get more, it will be like a weird thing (like those disney princesses who only are allowed to wear dresses of a certain color....). Green is one of my favorite colors, and I love that it's been in the last couple of years, but I think I'm going overboard. Wish they had a blue or a purple.

Uniqlo has a lot of surprisingly good light jackets.

Quince has one for $60, with more colors. Wonder how the quality is.

I may get this in black. I don't generally like this potato sack type dress on me (at age 49 I need structure!) but for $23 it can work as a beach cover-up.
