With summer just around the corner, it is time to slowly shed the warm clothes to make way for fun, comfortable and cute sundresses in your wardrobe. Sundresses are a summer staple, and a woman can never have too many of these must-haves. Be it the light evening breeze or the warm sun that your legs have been craving for all winter, the sundress is your answer. Here is all that you needed to know about sundresses and nailing the look!

Trendy yet Comfortable Besides being a trendy summer staple, the sundress personifies comfort and style. Designed in light fabrics like cotton, gauze and linen, which let the skin breathe, are the perfect picks for a hot summer day. No matter what length you choose, this fashionable attire is made to give you maximum comfort without compromising on looking fabulous.

Body Type Matters

Sundresses do not discriminate any body type. Whether you are curvy, petite or an hourglass, these cute dresses can dramatically change the way you look and by picking a dress that suits your body type, you can flatter your best assets.

If you are a top-heavy, you could opt for short dresses or knee-length dresses that give emphasize on your sexy legs. To also hide the heaviness of the top, pick dresses with an empire line which will give the illusion of a slimmer waist. If you have a to-die-for cleavage, flaunt it! Choose from sweetheart necks and halter neck dresses. If bulky arms are the problem, you could opt for off-shoulder dresses with baloon sleeves or bells sleeves.

Bottom heavy? Choose flowy or a-line dresses that hide the problem area. Focus on the top half of your body. You could choose interesting necklines like a dress with a plunging "V" neck or pick strapless dresses with pretty bows or sundresses with a girly cap sleeve. Maxis have made a comeback, and are here to stay. These long summer dresses are suitable for this body type, plus you can oomph up your summer look.

If you have an hourglass figure, feel free because most styles will look flattering on this figure.

Colors & Prints

Cute sundresses are all about the color and prints; this is one dress that you can be bold with your color and print preferences. Colors like yellow, red, blue, turquoise, orange, fuschia, purple and pink render this attire the much needed fun, girly and sexy elements. For a day look, pastels and bright colors work very well. With the right styling and accessories, you could look super cute in a sundress with a burst of colors. For a party in the evening or night, dresses with shimmer and embellishments will be perfect. You could also play around animal prints to oomph up your dress.

Prints, like colors, matter a lot; they can add a fun twist to your dress. While overdoing the prints is a fashion crime, you could put them to clever use to make you look fabulous in a sundress. Choose from geometric, paisley, flowers, stripes, animal prints and more for your dress.If you are full-figured keep away from the big bold prints and horizontal stripes as they can be unflattering.

Beach Buddy

Sundress for a beach outing or party is an ideal choice; pick fun and bright colors. The beauty of a sundress is that it can double up as a cute cover up for your swimwear. The comfort the attire offers makes it perfect to lounge around the beach/pool. Sheer fabrics like gauze server the purpose. The maxi comes handy here as well. For an evening/night in the beach, the maxis are ideal; it works well because you do not have to worry about the breeze blowing your dress, and it keeps your leg covered from the cool wind. A cute maxi is also a suitable choice of sundress for pregnant women. You can look fabulous even with your cute baby bump.

Accessorize

Accessories can complement a sundress beautifully. Think colorful beads, charms, big earrings. You can have fun mixing and matching the accessories with your dress. If the dress is busy with prints, you could tone the colors of your accessories down. Including a big tote bag or clutch can do wonders to your look. Don't forget the sunglasses too!

Choose footwear like flip-flop or strappy wedged sandals to complete the look. Wedged sandals and shoes are hot this season, and it is a perfect accessory-addition to your cute sundress.

Avoid over accessorization. While being a major fashion faux pas, it can ruin your look in an instant. For instance, if you are wearing a sundress with animal prints, avoid carrying a bag with animal prints or any other accessory with the same prints.

The following tips will help you look your best in a cute sundress:

If you are stepping out in the sun, don't forget the sunscreen/suntan lotion. You don't want your hands or legs with unwanted tan. Plus UV rays do more harm than good.

Avoid very short dresses if it is windy or you are headings towards the beach.

Always wax/shave your underarms, hands and legs if you plan to sport a sundress. A hairy arm or leg is not a pretty sight.

You can wear a sundress even on a cold winter day. Team it up with a pretty cardigan, leggings and boots with an interesting scarf, you are all set for a cold weather.
