A summer wardrobe staple: breezy, body-skimming caftans. I absolutely love the microtrend of bib-style ones I’ve been seeing at Wiggy Kit, Asha (wore yesterday, seen above and somehow on sale!; try code ASHA10 for an extra 10% off), and Tuckernuck. More generally, caftans definitely fall within my “clothes that barely touch my body” provision — a.k.a. all I want to wear in my 40s. These have the added benefit of airiness during peak DC summer heat. Sharing all my favorite sources and selections for this elegant but giving silhouette this summer —
SPECTACULAR PATTERN // BLUE EYELET // CHIC IN COBALT
01. I adore the crisp bib front on this dress — on sale. I bought this in green (seen above) and wore it yesterday! Very into the bib style.
02. Julia Amory short sleeve eyelet caftan — use code JEN-15. She’s perfect.
03. The drape, the color, the sleeves on this chili colored dress…!
04. Absolutely stunning chinoiserie-inspired motif on this dress.
05. The navy ornamental border details on this dress stopped me in my tracks.
06. The stripe on this under $160 lovely brought to mind Johanna Ortiz.
07. This beachy v-neck caftan is on sale in select patterns. Spectacular!
08. Love this paired with a colorful swimsuit.
09. Who remembers this hand-block printed style from a few seasons ago? I lived in mine! Just pulled out for the season ahead.
10. Crisp, on-trend cobalt blue with striking white trim.
11. A whimsical print!
13. This for an early summer lunch – it’s 50% off!
14. A splurge — but how spectacular is the design?!
15. A perfect hydrangea blue (and on sale). Pair with a big stack of bangles and ankle-wrap sandals for date night.
16. This feminine face-framing collar. My mom and I both own one of these dresses — so, so gorgeous IRL, and made of the softest and airiest cotton.
17. Dress this up or down. 30% off and already well-priced. Love.
