I can’t believe it took me several articles to realize that I haven’t actually written about the most must-have item for summer – the little white dress.

Laundry by Shelli Segal Scoop Neck Cross Dress, $251 (Sold Out)

The little white dress is always the “IT” dress for summer not only because it is cool to wear under the hot scorching sun, but also because it looks clean, crisp, and fresh, especially on hot and bright sunny days when everyone is practically sweating.

Besides, depending on the style, you can actually use the little white dress in many ways – as a bikini cover up, as a casual day dress, as a work dress, or as a date dress.
