Sunny days and flowy frocks? We can't wait for summer! (Amazon)
With spring in full bloom and summer around the corner, we're revamping our wardrobes with fresh, flowy frocks — and nothing is better on a sunny day than a light, lovely sundress. We're constantly on the lookout for the best seasonal styles, and we've found 12 lovely spring dresses on sale at retailers including Amazon, J. Crew and Nordstrom Rack that deserve a spot in our closets.
Here are our picks for the best dresses at the best prices.
A Yahoo reader favorite, this top-selling maxi dress — up to 80% off in certain colors — doubles as a coverup for the beach or pool. Its flowy silhouette skims the body, so it's incredibly flattering. Choose from 15 colors.
"I've tried a lot of eye creams," says Senior Beauty Editor Jennifer Romolini. "And, for my money, CeraVe makes the best drugstore depuffing/under-eye brightening treatment currently on the market. Not only does it feel good on your skin (absorbs quickly, no gross pilling), it's also fragrance-free, hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic. Olivia Wilde loves it, along with thousands of reviewers, who say it's like Botox in a cream. I'm not sure about that claim, but I do know this is a quality skin care staple at a price everyone can afford."
At over 40% off, it's within a dollar of its best price all year.

"There’s something about the simple design and the soft gentle stretch of the fabric that makes the fit very flexible and forgiving," wrote one of nearly 28,000 five-star fans.

Made of a polyester-rayon-spandex blend, this tiered maxi is light, soft and flowy, with a nice amount of stretch and thickness to elevate comfort and prevent undergarments from showing through.

Who doesn't love a dress with storage?
