Z Style – Summer Dresses

My Z is a girly girl, that comes as no surprise. So, once she realized how much she loved wearing dresses, she has requested them non-stop!

Summer Weddings

I feel like every summer we have at least one wedding to go to and therefore, I am always on the hunt for a great summer dress.
