Beat the Heat with a Shirt Dress

With this south Louisiana weather there isn't much you can wear to help you beat the heat. And, if you are like me, shorts really aren't your thing. Well, there is one sure way to help with the heat - a little shirt dress.

Shirt dresses are quick and easy. All you have to do is throw it on with a pair of flip-flops and run out of the door. You are sure to look polished and are sure to stay cool throughout the day.

One of my favorite brands for shirt dresses is Lacoste. From stretch-cotton and jersey to linen, Lacoste dresses come in great light-weight summer materials. And, since these materials have a little weight to them and aren't just a flimsy t-shirt, they do not cling to your body so you don't have to worry about every bump and bulge. Plus, each dress comes in a variety of colors so there are plenty to choose.

To dress up the shirt dress, wear it with a great pair of summer wedges and add fun jewelry. Or, just keep it simple with flip-flops or sandals. Either way you will be comfortable and breezy throughout the rest of the summer and possibly.....beat the heat!
