The piece: Gap 1969 Button-Front Denim Dress [1]

The price: $80

Why we want it: The only jeans we really wear all Summer are our cutoffs, but for this dress, we'll make an exception. Where the hot sun usually makes sporting denim downright unbearable, this alternative lets us breathe — and show off our tan. And, lest you forget Memorial Day is sneaking up on you, we just found your perfect dress to kick off Summer.
