[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like a lot of these shorter dresses but I find I've been gravitating towards midi or longer simple for practicality reasons. I love the Sundry dresses just linked, for instance, and they look generally easy and relaxed. But then I think about needing to bend down to help my toddler with something, or sitting on sideline bleachers at a kid's soccer game, and those dresses might be just short enough to make me feel like I need to worry about. I know you can wear bike shorts underneath but that undermines the "staying cool in the summer" aspect of a dress. But a midi dress is so nice because if you go with a flared or a-line shape, you can move around in them as easily as short or pants, but look a little more dressed up and it's easier to fit to different body shapes. I like a maxi dress, too. My ideal summer date night dress is something that is really "naked" on top (I don't do strapless, but I like something that exposes a lot of shoulders, back, and chest) but long, maybe with a slit. Sandals with a low heel, maybe a narrow belt and some hoops. I used to wear shorter dresses and skirts but it's so liberating to go longer and not have to think about it.[/quote] For your "date night dress", check Reformation, you described almost all their dresses.
