12 Summer White Dresses

Summer White Dresses

The Inspiration Dress

My husband is from Sweden, so each year we celebrate Midsommar – which refers to the first day of summer or the summer solstice. It’s become such a fun tradition for our family! We all wear summer white, flower crowns, play Swedish drinking games and eat lots of great food!

I wore this cute fit and flare, summer white dress for Midsommar in the past, but any time I wear it, people ask me where I got it. I bought this dress from Old Navy a couple of years ago, so unfortunately it’s no loner available. ๐Ÿ™ I particularly loveย that it is synched around my waist so it’s figure flattering, and it’s a midi length so it is perfect worn with heels/wedges or barefoot/flat!ย 

So I thought it would be helpful to round up some cute alternatives for anyone who is in the market for a similar style!! Here are 12 summer white dresses that won’t let you down.

Alternatives to the Inspiration

I don’t know about you, but I think summer is the perfect time to wear white. Pair it with a pretty belt, statement earrings or just a pair of sunnies and a cute purse.

Which one is your favorite?!

Get to Know Me!

Hello Friends!

Get to know me

Hey guys! I’m Lindsey and I’m so glad you’re here! This is a hub of all of the things I love and that make up my life. So let me tell you a little more about myself so you can get to know me first!

I know what it’s like to be a wife, mother and entrepreneur… to feel the guilt strings being pulled. However, I’m here to show you that you’re NOT alone and even share some ideas that have helped make things a little easier for myself and keep me sane. Lol.ย 

I LOVE making people feel happy, beautiful and empowered! So I hope you’ll grab a cup of coffee (or glass of wine) and join me on this roller coaster of a ride called LIFE.

I’m a Pro at organized chaos

I’m a wife, a mom, a hair & makeup artist, an essential oil enthusiast and a serial entrepreneur.ย I liveย in Charlotte, NC with my super supportive husband andย cutie patootie, light up my life 6ย year old son. Iย believe in being the bestย version of ourselves throughย positivity, laughter, grace and patience. Ok, who am I kidding… and margaritas!!

Travel abroad with kids
Family trip to Sigtuna, Sweden.

Through my love of essential oils I began designing my own essential oil diffuser bracelets and quickly realized how much I loved it! I personally LOVE to wear my oils so I can, not only smell good, but enjoy the therapeutic benefits all day long!

And even more so, I want to make beautiful pieces of jewelry for women, whether you’re an oiler or not, to add a little style to your everyday wardrobe. To check out my shop, go> HERE.

Among these creative outlets, I love being an entrepreneur, a mom, a wife and a homeowner. I hope to share some tips, ignite inspiration and just share my life with you… because I know I’m not the only Mama out there who’s trying to run a business, keep her sanity and enjoy this thing called life. ๐Ÿ™‚

XOXO – Your Friend,

3 things I wish all newbie entrepreneurs knew when 3 things I wish all newbie entrepreneurs knew when starting their business:

1๏ธโƒฃ There are people who try to find the cheapest deal and then there are people who will value your time, skills & expertise and pay what your service/product is worth! ๐˜ฟ๐™ค๐™ฃ'๐™ฉ ๐™ช๐™ฃ๐™™๐™š๐™ง๐™š๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ข๐™–๐™ฉ๐™š ๐™ค๐™ง ๐™™๐™ž๐™จ๐™˜๐™ง๐™š๐™™๐™ž๐™ฉ ๐™ฎ๐™ค๐™ช๐™ง๐™จ๐™š๐™ก๐™›- ๐™˜๐™๐™–๐™ง๐™œ๐™š ๐™ฌ๐™๐™–๐™ฉ ๐™ฎ๐™ค๐™ช๐™ง ๐™จ๐™š๐™ง๐™ซ๐™ž๐™˜๐™š/๐™ฅ๐™ง๐™ค๐™™๐™ช๐™˜๐™ฉ ๐™™๐™š๐™จ๐™š๐™ง๐™ซ๐™š๐™จ. 

2๏ธโƒฃ Set expectations with your clients from the start.

I added another beauty to my growing collection to practice on. I wanted to get one with darker hair to represent my brunette bridal babes. ๐Ÿฅฐ

Itโ€™s so important to look at hairstyle inspiration pics with your same (or similar) hair color. Details and texture look very different in light hair vs dark hair. ๐Ÿ˜‰

Swipe to see a few different textured styles!
