Shirt dresses strike a great balance between relaxed summer style and serious closet staple. They can be paired with an army jacket or a light sweater for day at the office or worn alone to show off some leg on a night out.

Solange Knowles slayed when she showed off her stems in this shirt dress. By pairing it with a bold red lip and big hair she stayed true to her signature beauty style. Her sandals are sexy in their simplicity. We all know the newlywed is good for a major moment and this look is no exception. Find a similar shirt dress from Free People here.

Tanesha Awasthi of “Girl With Curves” tried out the trend in this dress from Talbots. While on trend for this summer I can easily see this dress transitioning to cooler weather with the addition of a pair of opaque tights making its sweet style a smart investment.
