IMO, nothing marks the transition from spring to summer more so than a breezy dress made for picnics and brunches seated under patio umbrellas. Dresses are my summer uniform from Memorial Day weekend until mid-September (begone, layers and leggings!), so I always like to buy a few new styles so that my wardrobe feels fresh and exciting.

But new clothing can be expensive. Which is why, as a shopping editor, I’m always on the lookout for good deals on high-quality pieces. One of my go-to retailers as of late? Walmart. The store has really been serving some high-end-looking pieces on their site — at impressively affordable prices. From star designers with exclusive labels (Pioneer Woman and Sofia Vergara come to mind) to lesser-known (to me) brands with eerily-similar-to-designer styles, it’s so easy to pick up an entire new dress haul for under a hundred bucks.

Below are some of my personal favorites I’ve already added to cart.
