I'm always on the lookout for cool (sleeveless or woven) dresses to wear in the summer heat. I've never had enough, so this year I'm making it a priority.

Here's what I'm working with so far. They're neutral and they're dark, but I plan to accessorize with jewelry and toppers to combat icy AC. I'm just starting to play with these pieces, so I'm open to styling suggestions.

#1 - Sleeveless woven shirtdress - this is my DREAM summer work dress!
#2 - Woven shirtdress - love the olive green, and I can also belt it
#3 - Eileen Fisher black dress - Angie's summer black dress formula
#4 - Splendid hi-low black dress - a more casual version of Angie's formula
