Guaranteed best-dressed — 15 best summer dresses under $100 in Canada

As a shopping editor, most of my workday is spent looking at beautiful things. And while this is certainly a perk of the job, that's not to say it doesn't come with its own unique set of drawbacks. The foremost of which is that I end up spending a lot of money on those aforementioned beautiful things.

This is especially true when it comes to summer dresses. You see, I am a big summer dress gal. If you catch me on the street between June and September, there is a very good chance you'll see me donning some version of a mini, midi or maxi.

Therefore, I thought I would share with you some of my favourite dresses of the season. Whether you need a wedding guest outfit, a dress for your upcoming vacation or, like me, simply love a summer dress, there are tons of cute styles available right now for less than $100. To see what I have my eye on for the season, scroll below.
