One thing about me: I'm a sucker for a good sundress. It could be adorned with puffy sleeves, smocked or embroidered; mini-length or ankle-grazing; simple or brightly printed—for as many summers as I can remember, I've had a never-ending rotation of sundresses in my closet. Of course, the types of sundresses I've worn have varied as I've explored different aesthetics and lived in different parts of the country from L.A. to NYC, but no matter what else my summer wardrobe looks like, it will always have a few key staples not least of which is the perennial sundress along with sandals, swimsuits, and sunglasses.
As I look to build out my summer wardrobe this year, I'm craving some fresh styling inspiration. Naturally, my first instinct was to look to my fashion friends on Instagram who are always a wealth of outfit ideas and today is no different. Ahead, I'm highlighting the nine sundress outfits I've screenshotted to re-create myself because of how fresh they make the timeless dress style look. Keep scrolling for the unconventional-but-cool ways I plan to wear mine this season.

Up the school uniform vibe when you add a headband and blazer.We talk a lot about matching sets for spring and summer but have yet to consider matching our scarves to our sundresses. Until now. This look alone has me beelining to Amazon to order a bandana in the same color as all the dresses in my closet.Fans of western style are no strangers to pairing their cowboy boots with sundresses, but for anyone who's not as familiar with the combo, it's undeniably fresh.Another unexpected shoe choice that just somehow works? Clogs. The shoes ground an airy cotton sundress so perfectly and have us dreaming about spending the summer in a cottage in Sweden.My first instinct wouldn't be to throw a blazer over my dress, but that's why this works so well. It's casual but polished.Even classics like little black dresses are updated with cool midriff cutouts that bring the classic into the present-day.
