Black can be tricky to wear in the summer. Today I want to share 4 ways to wear a black dress in the summer!
Black isn’t a typical color for summer, but I’ve had a lot of questions about how to wear a black dress in the summer, and I found the perfect black dress from Nordstrom. It’s a lightweight cotton so it’s perfect for summer. I love that Nordstrom has great basics and essentials from dresses to bags to shoes to accessories.
Here are 4 ways to style a black dress in the summer!
How to Wear a Black Dress in Summer
1. Dress up your black dress with summer accessories
A black cotton dress works well with summer-y accessories, like tan strappy sandals and some white beaded earrings!
You could wear this to a wedding, to church, a dressy date night, or any other dressy event.

2. Wear a black cotton dress for date night
If you’re headed to a restaurant or the theater or somewhere nice for date night, this cotton dress is perfect. But definitely add a jacket cause it’s always freezing in restaurants.
I paired with my favorite neutral statement wedges. They’re so comfy!

3. Dress down your little black cotton dress
A cotton dress like this can absolutely be dressed down! Add a pair of sneakers and a cute baseball hat. A nice-casual bag goes well with the look, or you could do a cute small backpack.
