This layered boat neck frock is decidedly feminine and fun, and since yellow is mood-boosting color, this is an ideal winner for an afternoon get-together.

Daytime Bridal Brunch

Baby-blue gingham and a contrasting pattern clutch work perfectly if you're headed to celebrate your friend's upcoming wedding. This nostalgic print has a lot going on so you'll want to keep your heels simple.

Weekend Getaway

The nautical stripes on this multipatterned dress are an appropriate choice for any warm-weather locale.

City Tour

Black ankle boots help keep things casual, which is just what you want when touring a new town. A flat-brim hat keeps the sun out while giving the no-fuss outfit a big boost.
