In case you missed it, coastal is having a moment! To determine if an outfit is coastal, simply ask yourself, “Could I see myself wearing this on a trip to Santorini, Greece or to the Amalfi Coast?” If the answer is yes, you found yourself a coastal outfit!
Coastal-looking dresses are slightly boho, slightly rich mom and extremely luxe. Most coastal dresses are patterned and loose, making them comfy, lightweight and flattering. The patterns themselves distract from any lumps or bumps while the relaxed fit keeps them airy, an ideal combo for the hot summer days to come!
