Ocean Dream's Spring Dress Inspiration

I'm thrilled to do a blog post today for Leeann and since spring time has been on my mind I thought I would write about some recent spring dresses that have caught my eye!

But before I dive in let me introduce myself...

My name is Sierra and I'm a blogger over at my dreamy blog home called Ocean Dreams. I'm also a featured blogger at JoeShopping.com where I blog about fashion, brands and stores twice a week. So as you can see I love to write and especially about fashion!

So let's check out some amazingly cute and sweet dresses!

I am a big fan of ruffles and I've seen them everywhereso far this spring! With this flowy dress I'd feel like I was a part of a fairy tale come true. Plus the "waves" kind of remind me of the ocean. ;)


Royal Wave Dress $59.99 at Modcloth

This dress reminds me a little bit of sailing with its stripes. I also adore the ruffled sleeve and cute ribbon-lined chest pocket.




I wish I could buy this dress right now not only because I love the darling white tee but the bright florals on this dress are so delightful! This dress looks super comfy and perfect for brightening up your wardrobe during spring and summer time.




I've always been a sucker for turquoise. It's the dreamer in me and besides this dress is drop dead gorgeous.




Another favorite color of mine is yellow. It's bright like the sun and instantly you can be cheered up just by slipping a yellow dress on!


Pineapple Princess $86 at Shabby Apple


A delicious dress has the right amount of color and ruffles and for me this coral dress does the trick. I wish I could buy this dress right now too!


Bonita Barcelona Halter Coral Dress $36.50 at LuLu's


What's your favorite type of dress? Are you into the ruffles, bright colors, and lace this season?

I certainly am and can't wait to go shopping in CA for dresses!

{I'll be visiting CA for a month} even though it's more like home since I lived there for 7 years. I'm bound and determined to move back soon but that's another story.

Oh and guess who I get to meet while I'm in sunny CA?! No other than Leeann! I can't wait to meet you girl.

It was nice "meeting" all of you here and hope you are able to stock up on some adorable dresses for the spring time!



This is Leeann now, I just wanted to say that you should definitely check out Sierra's blog! Ocean Dreams is a great go to for various topics and on top of being a great blogger, she's super sweet!

    You'll have so much fun with Leann!! I love summery dresses, cause I also live in California and I pretty much wear dresses every day (even in the winter). I really like bright colors & florals these days, although solid dresses have been catching my eye as well. xo

    the first one is my fave. i wasn't a fun of ruffles until last year. it always reminded me of my grandma and this ugly thing my mom used to make me wear when i was little. i guess ruffles when made properly and designed well can be a good thing :)

    Ruffles are a favorite of mine too because they’re so feminine and girly. I love bright colors for spring, especially turquoise and coral. The dress from Forever 21 and Lulu’s are my favorites.
