Looking for the best cute sundresses under $40? These dresses are flattering to your pear shaped body, affordable, and bonus? Some even come with prime shipping! 

It's cute sundresses season for SURE.  There's something about a great sundress that screams summer.  From vacation dresses to wear everyday dresses, sundresses are a staple piece in any summer outfit.  I've been on the hunt for great sundresses that won't break the bank, and these? Are my favorites.  They're classic styles you'll wear for years, and the best part? At this price, you can order a few!

The Best Cute Sundresses Under $40

My information: I’m 5 feet 6 inches with a classic pear shaped body (smaller on top and wider hips and thighs).  I wear a size 10 to 12.  Usually a medium top and large bottom.  In swimsuits I almost always wear a large in a one piece or a medium top and large bottom in a two piece.  In dresses I usually do a medium or size 10.  For each of these? I'll give size specific info.

All the dresses from my try on:

This cute sundress? $14.

Tiered Knit Dress (size medium): How could you not love this dress? It's comfy, comes in a million colors, and it's under $15.  I ordered it in three.  Trust me, it's a must own.

Looking for a great midi sundress? This polka dot one is adorable!

Polka Dot Midi Dress (size medium): This polka dot midi dress is a total classic.  It also comes in a muted red, and a really pretty sage green.  It's a total classic, and will be wearable for summers to come.

Who doesn't love a great tropical print sundress?

Tropical Linen Dress (US size 10):  Isn't this print STUNNING? It looks lush and….expensive.  Warning it comes with European sizes on the label, so that US size ten? will say Size 14 in the label.

Red Maxi Dress (size medium): Who doesn't love a simple maxi dress? This one comes in a ton of colors and is super COMFY!  It's perfect for wearing into fall with a jean jacket!

🚗 Road Trips……Which one are you?⠀ ⠀ Thi 🚗 Road Trips……Which one are you?⠀⠀This weekend we flew to Sacramento and then road tripped north to see my family up in the mountains.  It was so much fun to spend time together, and it reminded me….we are ALL one of these people on a toad trip.⠀⠀Bonus points to the VERY nice road trip vehicle we had…..the team at @MazdaUSA lent us a 2023 Mazda CX-50 Turbo Premium Plus and it was AMAZING (it even had a wireless charging dock for our phones). It made my snack stops even better (yup, we tried Dutch Bros for the first time and OMG we need them to expand to more Southern California locations ASAP).⠀⠀So, which are person are YOU on a road trip? ⠀⠀#familytravel #drivemazda
….and also why are we commenting negatively abou ….and also why are we commenting negatively about people’s appearances in 2023?Double also: if the worst thing people on the interwebs can say about me is that they don’t like my smile…..then I feel pretty good about what type of person I’ve chosen to be.
💕Because we all want our kids to soar………⠀⠀So fitting right? Elvis named this plane after his daughter.  And all I’ve been thinking about throughout our St Jude experience…..is how certain things truly bond all of us.  Certain things cross economic barriers and continent and language differences.  Parenthood is one of those.  It’s a universal experience.  And I think whether we are parents or role models or aunties or friends……we all know what it’s like to dream and hope on behalf of a child in your life.⠀⠀In 2012, when I was newly married and not yet a parent one of my students was diagnosed with cancer.  Without revealing details about her or her family, I think it’s important to recognize that economic barriers prevented what should have been an earlier diagnosis.  It was one of many times I was reminded during my time with the amazing humans in my classrooms that…..we do NOT all have the same access or experiences in life.  That student and her family were one of the miracle stories.  In fact, when she came back to class, she complained about missing soccer games at recess and fell right back in with the rest in a way that to this day brings joyful tears to my eyes. ⠀⠀I said this on my stories during my trip, but…..I didn’t realize until this experience that families at St Jude NEVER receive a bill.  Ever.  No matter what.  That this access gives families hope during their darkest days.⠀⠀I’m going to be teaming up with St. Jude to do a fun challenge that will hopefully inspire y’all to support them too.  Let’s just say that…..for this scared of heights, refuses to take my feet off the ground theme park girlie……I’m going to making the ultimate sacrifices.⠀⠀What rides would you want to see me go on in support of St Jude? (be kind, I’m literally TERRIFIED of any and all rides that have a height limit). You know they REALLY moved me if I’m even thinking of doing this! ⠀⠀@stjude #stjudeambassador
💕Double tap if you know what the Peabody is fam 💕Double tap if you know what the Peabody is famous for…..so many of you guessed it in stories last night!🦆The Peabody Hotel is famous for their duck parade.  And we got to see it as a part of Day 1 of the St Jude Content Creator Summit.  I’m in Memphis to learn all about how St Jude is doing life saving research to fight and cure childhood cancers.💕Real talk: I get to do a lot of fun things because of this little app but projects like this? Are an absolute honor.  Did you know that patients at St Jude NEVER RECEIVE A BILL? What a gift to families in crisis. I’m so happy to share this next couple of days here in Memphis with y’all and to support such an important organization.🦆Now, swipe to see the ducks. @stjude #stjudeambassador
She IS Ariel. We saw it. It’s a gift. This s She IS Ariel. We saw it.  It’s a gift.  This stunning movie shows a princess who is absolutely……royal.  Graceful.  Brave and……the perfect mermaid. Years ago, I was sitting in the theater during the live action Lion King premiere just days after the Little Mermaid casting was announced.  And in walked Halle Bailey.  This young girl and all I could think was……how much weight of the world was on her shoulders.  The room paused.  And people everywhere stood.  They applauded her and smiled and I thought…..she really is a princess. Halle, you are the epitome of royalty.  Thank you for sharing your shine with the world.I would love to encourage you to follow these amazing creators who have been shining themselves and sharing a ton of special Little Mermaid experiences:@jenniferborget @erikaenchanted@davidvaughn@_the_adventurous_rjay@colormemagic@melizzablackLydia’s, Robbie’s and my full review of the film will be on the blog Monday morning.How excited are you for the film? Who is your favorite Little Mermaid character? #littlemermaid #colormemermaid #ariel
