Dressing up for casual outings can be both enjoyable and overwhelming. You might feel confident about your outfit selection in one moment, only to find yourself changing your clothes multiple times in the next moment.

Dresses are widely known and loved since they are so easy to style. It’s hard to go wrong with styling dresses, especially for casual outings. 

In today’s article, we’ll go over all the different dress options you’ll need to spice up your casual looks.

Let’s get right into it.

10 Types of Dresses Every Woman Needs to Own

Are you often indecisive when it comes to choosing your outfit? There are so many ways to tackle outfit indecision- these include:

• Choosing one-piece outfits such as dresses as they don’t require much consideration regarding what to pair them with.
• Planning ahead.
• Sticking to your style- if you have difficulty finding your style, you can hop on a chat with one of our virtual stylists to help you figure that out.
• Seeking a second opinion- sometimes you just need someone reliable to help you look at things with a fresher perspective.

Dresses come in about three different types of lengths:

Mini- the longest end of a mini dress falls right at your upper or mid-thigh area. 

Midi- a midi dress’ hem may fall slightly above your knees or below them.

Maxi- these are the longest dresses extending to the ankles or beyond.

What’s your preferred length of choice? When it comes to dressing up for casual outings, the beauty is that you can choose to wear a dress of any length you prefer. The most important thing is to wear what makes you feel comfortable and confident.

So, here are some casual dress options for you:

A shirt dress

It’s a perfect dress choice for running all your short errands. But you can also wear it out to a brunch date with friends. 

A little black dress (LBD)

You’re missing out if you don’t have that one little black dress- but it’s never too late to get one or two. It’s among the most popular party-wear dresses for women. You can wear it on a date too.

A wrap dress

It’s an ideal choice for anyone who prefers the flexibility of adjusting the fit of their dress, especially around the waist area.

A knotted dress

If you love keeping it simple but not too plain- a knotted dress is an excellent choice. You can wear it to baby showers and even dinner dates. Knotted dresses will help you achieve that simple and sophisticated look.

A denim dress

Now, this list won’t be complete without the timeless favourite- denim. We love our denim jeans and skirts for their versatility; denim dresses also bring all that to the table and more!

A pleated dress

It’s an excellent choice for when you want to embrace your playful side and tap into your inner child. In addition to being a playful and fun option, pleated dresses are versatile and flatter pretty much all body types due to their flared design.

A cut-out dress

If you’re looking to break out of your shell and embrace a more daring style, a cut-out dress is an excellent option. These dresses often have unique and creative designs that feature subtle or bold openings in the fabric.

A tie-dye dress

Elevate your casual outfits with sophisticated pops of colour by incorporating tie-dye dresses into your wardrobe. 

A strapless/ off-shoulder dress

Like cut-out dresses, these are also perfect for whenever you’re in the mood to break out of the modest cocoon. Strapless and off-shoulder dresses are an especially ideal pick for those sunny days.

A slip dress

It’s the simplest dress type on the list and is perfect for occasions when you want to keep it simple and not appear too overdressed. It’s an ideal first-date dress.

These are just a few of the many available dress options, so don’t worry! You’ll definitely find one or a couple that aligns with your style. Pause has a variety of options for you!
