Beach Ready – Organic Cotton Caftan Dress

I love an airy summer dress and this organic cotton caftan dress from Everlane is just the ticket.

Shop the Post:

Light and airy, with side slits and a roomy fit, this dress will keep you cool and comfortable on a hot day.  Thoughtfully made sustainably with organic cotton, the caftan is available in Black Check and Sequoia Check. It’s a bit sheer, which adds to the breezy look and feel. Here I’m wearing it over my swimsuit as a beach cover up, but I will also wear it as a summer dress, possibly with a little slip or even leggings.

I’m accenting the look with fun new summer baubles from Kendra Scott.  I’m loving their abalone pieces this season, especially these gorgeous earrings!

A packable sun hat, simple flip flops, Warby Parker sunnies, and an old straw bag completes the seaside look.

I’m really enjoying my summer wardrobe more than usual this season.  I tend to be more of a fall/winter girl, but I’m really loving the beachy vacation-ready vibes right now!  What are you loving lately?

Other summer looks on the blog lately: black gauze pants, Chico’s for summer, and classic basics from Appleseed’s.
