In the summer, nothing makes more sense than throwing on a maxi dress. It’s the ultimate throw-it-on-and-go kind of garment-effortless, easy to style up or down, breathable, and the kind of piece that makes you feel your prettiest.

This gorgeous dress by Sidress was perfect for a slow afternoon relaxing in the backyard (shop it here). The details are stunning. I absolutely adore the high neckline and low scoop back, finished with a beautiful flared hem. And the print and color? So good. It has this gorgeous, abstract animal-inspired pattern that feels playful yet elevated.

To style it, I went the minimal route with a pair of thong sandals, delicate earrings, and this necklace I’m so obsessed with (shop it here) to keep the look effortless.

Style tip: I love the idea of mixing prints and letting the accessories add an unexpected little moment. The polka-dot horse pendant paired with the organic, spotted print of the dress feels luxe without being too matchy-matchy—just the perfect little mix.
