Alright, it's time to talk frocks. Not the frilly dressy things you never really wear. No, these are perfect for any day or anywhere. You must consider that your wardrobe might be lacking some personality if all you don are jeans and the boring khaki capri pants that every single mom seems to claim as her uniform come summer. SKIP IT!! They are making you look like a blah, boring, mommy who is older than her time.
The plus side here is that it will take you one pull over the head to get dressed and look chicer than your old self ever dared. It's weird but a lot of ladies are afraid of dresses. There's no need to be when you have lovely chic frocks like these...

I can hear you all complaining that you don't want to show that much leg. Remember this is the runway. Any of these dresses would look great just at the knee. Manipulate the looks to suit you. Make them your own by way of longer hem, more of a sleeve, a different color or a more casual fabric. Pay attention to the shape of the dress and have some fun getting updated!

Listen, if you put flat sandals with almost any of these dresses it brings them down to casual wear in one smart move. Try it! You might just decide to trade in your old mommy aging capri uniform or same old college standby jeans for something much chicer and easier.
I hope you enjoyed my favorites from the shows for next year and will be inspired to slip one on yourself.
