HERE’S WHY WE LOVE DRESSES: They’re pretty, feminine and flattering beyond belief. “One-pieces are easy – there’s no need to think of coordinating tops,” says Sun Ngo, 34, mom to Mya, 4, and one-year-old Indiana. And this summer is the season of the dress, whether empire waist, shirt-style, cotton eyelet, lace, graphic patterned, white-on-white, belted… hip mamas can enjoy them all. And so can their Mini-Mes. Admit it: the only thing more fun than dress shopping for one is dress shopping for two (or three!).
Ngo’s summer dress essentials:
1. Look for wrinkle-free
fabrics such as cotton jersey or eyelet lace.
2. Get happy in energetic florals or colours such as blue and pink.
3. Go for a natural glow with luminescent face and body powder. Ngo loves Jergens Soft Shimmer Skin Radiance Moisturizer ($10/300 mL).
