It’s time to welcome some ultra-chic midi dresses into your life, my friends. Because nothing possesses versatility quite like a demure mid-length frock. Easy to dress up for an evening out (just add strappy sandals and layers of necklaces), easy to dress down for a casual picnic in the park (wear with slide sandals and a straw bag) and easy to wear to work for a day of meetings (simply throw on a blazer and some kitten heels, et voilà!)—the midi dress has obvious appeal for every occasion. It’s also important (and my duty) to report that there are some seriously good midi dresses on the market right now, filling up my cart faster than I fill up on pasta. From slip dresses to floral-print frocks, there’s something for every sartorial taste. And the best part? The stylish midis I’ve found ring in at under $200. (Insert clapping hands emoji here!) Scroll below for all the affordable midi dresses worth buying right now that will get you through the season in style.
