We'd literally spend entire shopping trips devoted to collecting dresses for every occasion if we could, but since that's more fashion dream than reality, we spend a lot more time figuring out how to style the pieces we have. That means drawing inspiration from the street style darlings and bloggers who have the dresses — and all the right accessories — for just about any occasion. Think brunches, weddings, cocktails, and beyond — all you have to do is scroll through for the styling cues straight from a few of our favorite fashion bloggers.
