June in Florida means heat… lots and lots of heat lol. We are in desperate need of rain and had less than an inch all of May. When the weather is this steamy the first thing I think of is linen. I’ve wanted one of the Hill House Nap dresses but the price tag is just too high. Enter this cute little dress from Amazon. It’s the perfect dress for the trendy Coastal Grandmother Aesthetic.
Darling Details
It hit all the marks I was looking for – linen/ cotton blend, midi length, smocked bodice, and flutter sleeves. All the little details make it such cute dress. It gives me the same vibe as the Nap dress at a fraction of the price.
I wore it to church last weekend and just loved how comfortable it was. It’s such a girly look. I love the the blue and white stripes but there are other colors available, too. And you can’t beat the budget friendly price point. I paired it with white accessories including my favorite Amazon tote and the Steve Madden Skyler sandals which are sure to be the it sandal of the summer.
How It Fits
As far as fit goes I found it pretty forgiving. I usually wear a 12 but it only went up to a 10 so I took a chance. It fit fine so I would say you can size down if you need to. As is the case with linen it does wrinkle easily so make sure you are ok with that “lived in linen” look.
Cottagecore – Lite
The fabric is great for summer. I think it’s a good way to dip your toes in the Cottagecore aesthetic without looking TOO Little House on the Prairie. It’s romantic without being overly fussy.
I can see this being perfect for summer picnics, church, brunch with the girls, etc. I’m so hoping to resume normal social activities again soon and I keep putting outfits together in my head of what I will wear. Does anybody else do this? Anyway, it’s a great little dress and I’m calling it an Amazon win!
