We’ve all bought a dress that we think we’ll wear “all the time,” only to have it pushed to the back of the closet and not heard from until the next Goodwill run. Getting wiser in our fashion choices, we realize that versatility and comfort are probably two of the most important factors to look for when shopping — and these “everything dresses” make the ordeal easy.
In lieu of grabbing occasion-specific frocks, these everyday dresses are the way to go, taking you from quick Target runs to beachfront dinners in style. All you need to do is swap the accessories and shoes, and you’re golden. Another great detail? The versatility will save you the big bucks and major closet space. Want in on these dresses? We rounded up 15 budget-friendly errand-to-dinner picks that are comfortable, beyond versatile and start at just $15. And because they’re all on Amazon, your loot will be at your door in Prime time!
