Colorful

is the word for spring dresses, and nothing brightens our day more than a lovely dress in a flattering shade, perhaps with a swing in the skirt that sways as we walk. 

Spring dresses are the ultimate option for easy dressing in the upcoming warmer weather. Throw in some sandals and sunglasses, and you are ready to get started with your day. There are so many options of colors, silhouettes, and prints available. 

While there are many dress choices in solid colors, look for fantasy florals, fruit stripes in bold colors of the rainbow, watercolors, and paisley. This spring is not a time to go subtle in your attire. In fact, if you are looking to add only one new garment to your spring/summer wardrobe, make it a memorable dress! Here are our top dresses for women over 50.

One of my favorite styles to wear is Bohemian, whether it’s a flowing top or a pair of embellished bottoms.
