27 Comfortable Summer Workwear Dresses Under $100

As much as we wish Summer equaled weeks on end of vacation, most of us have to get up and go to work every day. Bleh. Enter: Summer workwear solutions!

Dresses are one of our favorite ways to feel less humdrum about the whole employment and earning-a-living thing in the heat, with flowy, lightweight versions being the easiest option when you need to look polished but feel cool. Since you probably want to stock up on several styles for the season, affordable Summer dresses are ideal, from linen wrap dresses to cotton shirtdresses and less-than-clingy silhouettes that range from mini to midi lengths. Even if you choose a style with thin straps, lightweight layers like a linen blazer or denim jacket will make them feel a skosh more polished or serve as that barrier you need when you're facing overactive air conditioning.

Because it's excruciating to clothe oneself in anything less than breathable in the heat, ahead, shop the edit of under-$100 Summer dresses (with options for curvy shapes!) that are perfectly sophisticated for work, including a few of our favorite styles from the latest POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's.
