    I live in linen in the summer!
    My favorite linen dress will sound so boring but it's beige or natural color and can do an all neutral outfit or act as a base for a pop of a bright color.

    I bought a dress from Old Navy that is similar to the one you show from Banana Republic, with the cutouts in the same place, but it's a shirtdress with a deep v-neck and short sleeves. It is so flattering that I bought it in two colors! It's nice and cool too, 100%cotton. 😊

    Oh yes a definite wow for those dresses. You look so lovely in them MarieAnne. My favourites are the ones with sleeves. I like to cover up a bit more at my age (76). Wedge heels are great too. My favourite has to be the red with big blue patten and longer sleeves.x

    I love summer dresses , especially in linen , cotton , silk. Last fall I was in Provence and bought 4 summer dresses and this season I shopped here at home in the U S and got 5 more linen dresses . So I am ready!!!!! and I bought a few gorgeous belts for those dresses, plus some linen shirts, and pants in white and black +2 pairs of jeans plus a couple of cute T-shirts. Lol I am very bad this season. Thank you for the video. You are a such an elegant lady.❤😊

    Not crazy about cutouts for older women. I know they have to be strategically placed but still...

    Marie-Anne, these dresses are lovely and the accessory you pair with each are perfect. I want to add another opinion about tanning. Since every pigment shade is beautiful we can avoid tanning by picking colors that highlight our pigmentation. It is also removes our desire to tan since it is bad for all pigment shades.

      I agree! I just go with my natural, pale skin, but people try to make me ashamed because I’m not “tan”. There’s a reason I don’t tan, skin cancer is rife in my family history! Nor do I think it’s aesthetically necessary or even desirable at all, we don’t expect darker skinned people to lighten theirs to some arbitrary “perfect” shade.🙂

    The navy LilySilk is my favorite. I like sleeveless. I have a maxi with the slit at the bottom. Very comfortable. The floral is perfect on a hot day. I am really loving the reds! The J Crew is very pretty. I am only 5 feet tall, so some of these dresses could swallow me up. Maybe with some tailoring though. Thank you for sharing! 💕 Dresses are so fun!

      I love Boden clothes as well as I am 5"4 and small. But I had hit and miss purchasing them on line. Sometimes the small fits me well, sometimes, it is too tight on the chest or armholes, for both, I am small. I am still trying to figure out which size to buy for which cut. I wish there is a store here so I can just go and try. but I live in Houston, no Boden store here.

    Yes! I have great difficulty finding dresses for the summer. My criteria includes: slightly longer than midi-length in a natural fabric, short sleeves (I NEVER wear sleeveless as I don't like how my underarms stick together and I know my upper arms are not my best features) a full back (I need to wear a good support bra) and in a style that doesn't hug my belly (I have a tummy!!). In my closet I have only one summer dress - it met my criteria - it's a long sand coloured linen shirt-style dress. I'm not sure the colour is right for me, but I have received compliments when I've worn it. I usually accessorize with a two-toned brown and natural straw bag that has brown leather handles, and simple brown slides - or my beige and black flat Chanel-style sling-back sandals and a black handbag. I would LOVE to have a selection of dresses to wear for summer, but I've given up my search, which has lasted years. Your video, Marie-Anne has wonderful dress ideas, but sadly I don't see myself wearing most of them.
