What’s your typical summer date outfit? Do you still get all dressed up for your partner or, if you have little kids, are you just happy to get time alone? Do you have rules like “no talking about the kids”? These best-selling espadrilles give you a ton of height but are actually only 2″ high with the platform, so they’re a good medium, and I could see them working with everything from a casual outfit to a more dressed up look for a summer date or brunch with your girlfriends.

The dress is part of the new Nordstrom collaboration with the blogger behind Gal Meets Glam (with sizes up to 18 in this dress), comes in a beige/orange version as well, and is $178.

If memory serves, I bought these last year for a lightweight, waterproof sandal to take with us to a waterpark — and it was a nice upgrade over my usual Reefs. I’ve long been a fan of Birkenstocks for weekend wear, and this bright color was a fun change.  Nordstrom has a zillion other colors, including a great yellow, coral, and pink, as well as sleek all-black and all-white versions. The sandals are $40, and highly rated at Nordstrom; they’re also available at Amazon and Zappos. Essentials – Gizeh Flip Flop
