64 Spring Dresses to Snag While They’re Still on Sale
Spring means a few things. It means Fridays so sunny you’re tempted to sneak out of work at 4 p.m. It means routine trips to your local ice cream parlor. It means stocking up on all kinds of spring dresses—and sometimes even spring dresses on sale—because really, what piece of clothing is more fit for spring’s dreamiest days than a romantic, flowy, colorful sundress?
I know it feels like spring just got started—and by most definitions, it did. The spring equinox came and went on March 20, blessing us with the season we’d been looking forward to since temperatures started dropping last October. But in the retail world, spring—or at least, spring clothing season—kicked off in February. Avid online shoppers know retailers swapped their winter wares with spring-facing options while snowstorms still loomed overhead, leaving us all with a veritable plethora of spring clothing to admire while we remained bundled in our puffiest puffers and our coziest snow boots.
This seemed like a cruel joke at the time. How could we justify dropping dollars on chic dresses we wouldn’t be able to bust out for months to come? But there’s an upside to this situation that’s just now kicking in: Since spring selections hit retailers in February, they’re already getting marked down in April. In other words, there are a bunch of cute spring dresses on sale right the eff now—in the middle of the season, while there’s still plenty of time to wear them.
So go forth and shop the myriad spring dresses that await you. They’ll look great at happy hour, your local ice cream joint, or any other idyllic location you’re tempted to run off to while the sun is shining overhead.
