Why would you want to stand out from the crowd when you could blend in with Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Angelina Jolie, and Jennifer Garner in a breezy white dress?
It’s hard to not to notice just how similar all three’s recent sartorial choices have been: Chopra Jonas wore a $1,190 Proenza halter dress with a dramatic deep V-cut on a press outing for her new movie Love Again; Jolie recently wore two different white maxis, a linen-looking one and a sleeveless ruched one, just a few days apart; and Garner opted for an elegant off-the-shoulder look to attend a charity event.
Even though all three clearly broke the cardinal fashion rule by wearing white before Memorial Day, you won’t have to — the holiday weekend has officially arrived, and discounted dresses have come with it. Yes, breezy white dresses are on sale at many major retailers right now, like Nordstrom, Abercrombie & Fitch, Madewell, and more.

Two’s a crowd, three’s a trend, but anything more than that? It’s a style to pay attention to. So, listen up, because Naomi Watts was recently spotted walking her pup in a midi dress that featured pretty puff sleeves. On the simpler side, Elsa Hosk wore a high-neck fit and flare version from her brand, Helsa.

When shopping for summer clothes, there’s always two very important things to consider: the cool factor and, well, the cool factor (read: light and breezy). The Abercrombie & Fitch Cap Sleeve Corset Midi Dress has both. Its cap sleeves are similar to Jolie’s and the corset design around the bust reminds us of hers, too. While you’d normally have to dole out $110 for the style, it’s currently available for $75 thanks to double discounts.

A one-shoulder design, like this Anrabess Ruffle Tiered Maxi Sundress, is another great option to consider for dressier occasions. One shopper, out of the 1,200+ who gave it a perfect rating, said it’s the “perfect sundress,” adding: “[It’s] simple to layer with a jacket or sweater in spring, and beautiful on its own in warmer weather!” Given its “stretchy material on the top,” as another shopper described, the flowy tiered silhouette, and lightweight rayon material, it’s easy to see why you need it.
