Sometimes you just get tired of baring your arms in the summer. (I know once August comes, I’m about had it with upper-body sun exposure.) To appease the ladies who are tiring of their sleeveless summer wardrobe, we’ve rounded up 5 summer dresses with sleeves you can wear in the morning, for mid-day drinks, and when you’re out at night.
This dress takes the prize in the boho summer dresses with sleeves category because it’s sexy and subtle all in one. This beautiful dress comes from Free People. The floral shift dress features large, flowing bell sleeves that have a scalloped crochet trim. The back of this dress has cutouts that complement its mini length. Priced at $128 and comes in two colors (ivory and coral).
2. Braided Chambray Tunic Dress
Sometimes a simple sleeved dress is all you need (especially when you’re rocking any quirky summer accessories or a vibrant pair of platforms). This dress’ simple design also allows it to be a great seasonal transition dress — just throw on some cowboy boots, a wool hat, and a fringed jacket and you’ll be set for cooler days. This cotton tunic dress is sold at Anthropologie and goes for $148.
ThredUp has a great summer dress selection but this one really stood out to us. We love the pattern, and adore the dress’ length and its flowing sleeves. Dress it down or dress it up, it’ll look great. Priced at $57.99.
4. Long Summer Dress with Short Sleeves and Eyelet Lace Cutout
If you’re looking for a classy vintage number to wear on a date, go this direction. The dress comes from Etsy shop Midnight Flight and is priced at $64. This maxi dress is vintage from the 1970s.
And we wanted to end our summer dresses with sleeves list with the classic, sleeved, summer maxi. This dress is perfect for those late summer nights when the early fall chill starts to set in (because you can wear white after Labor Day).
