When it comes to summer style, I’ve got two non-negotiables: comfort (will I survive a heatwave in this?) and style (aka, do I look effortlessly cool without trying too hard?). And when I’m on the hunt for pieces that check both boxes, a little celeb inspiration goes a long way. Enter: Vanessa Hudgens.

The actress, who’s currently expecting her second child with husband Cole Tucker, recently shared a carousel of photos on Instagram and while she looked radiant across the board, I couldn’t take my eyes off the dress. She wore a chocolate brown knit maxi with a peek-a-boo chest cutout and a flirty fringe hem. The spaghetti straps and breathable texture? Ideal for keeping things cool, comfy and just the right amount of glam.

Of course, she’s not the only celeb showing us how to dress for the season. Serena Williams also took to social media recently, posting a few sun-soaked snaps in nature. Her look? A silky, brown, spaghetti-strap slip dress paired with black sunglasses, white sandals and her bronde hair pulled back into a sleek ponytail.

Meanwhile, Jennifer Lawrence has been serving peak “quiet luxury” in NYC, spotted wearing a lace-trimmed summer dress that’s minimalist yet eye-catching. (Yes, we found some lookalikes for you.) And Gabrielle Union wore a romantic satin number by Showpo to the Paris Olympics, complete with a corset-style bodice and floral appliqués.

So yes, it’s official: breezy, beautiful dresses are the summer style MVPs. Whether you’re running errands or posing with a baby bump, it’s the easiest way to look pulled together while beating the heat.
