25 Walmart Dresses To Celebrate No Pants
Important to note: some reviewers felt that the design ran a bit large, so it may be best to size down for a more structured fit. Promising review: "Why are the pockets not being mentioned on this adorable dress? Firstly, I fell between sizes. I usually take a small, but wasn't sure how the bust area would fit. I ordered the lime color in a medium and it fits with a bit of room to spare. It's not so big that I'd need to send it back, but I could've ordered a small. Great high quality fabric. It has a linen or linen blend kind-of feel, even though it's not. I really took a chance on this little dress — it was marked down — and I'm so glad I did. And I'm so happy with my purchase. Thank you Walmart for upping the game on the quality. Five stars!" —JulesPrice: $28 (available in sizes S–4X and four colors)
A square-neck mini dress with wide, billowy short sleeves and decorative medallion-accented eyelets in Jelly Bean Green. Eye-catching and elevated. Plus, discreet pockets. And I mean, who doesn't love pockets??
Reviewers report that this dress is true to size for taller folks or those who want a fuller look, but if you're on the shorter side or want something a bit more fitted, look into sizing down.Promising review: "Have received so many compliments on this dress! The green is perfect for summer and excellent quality after a few washes. (Short time on low in dryer, then hang to dry.) Could dress up or down, great to throw on for errands or perfect for baby or wedding shower!" —Gabby"Embroidery is perfect. Slip liner fits perfectly. Washes like a dream without shrinkage. Color green is very brilliant and looks amazing on everyone." —AnnPrice: $14.99 (originally $28; available in sizes XS–XXL and three colors)

The stitching is on point. The material is lovely. Can't believe I got it from Walmart, but definitely will be keeping my eye out for more." —lindy"This dress is gorgeous! The fabric quality is amazing and not what I would expect from Walmart. It has little rubber bits on the bodice to keep it up, the skirt is nice and long and a thick linen-like material. Great for summer and spring. Could be layered with a cute jacket for fall or winter, even. Super comfy." —anonymousPrice: $28.99 (originally $38; available in sizes XS–XXL and two colors)

It's important to know that the fabric of this dress is a bit heavier than reviewers expected. That being said, some did end up removing the bottom layer and found that it became much lighter to wear. Best worn on cooler summer days and nights.Promising review: "I'm absolutely in love with this dress. It's 100% cotton and it fits amazingly. There are draw strings across the waist and the back of your neck that you can adjust to be as loose or as tight you prefer. The material is stiff, but I don't mind it. It also has pockets!!! I'm 5'3" and it's short girl-friendly and hits me at the top of my ankles. It's become one of my favorite dresses. I might get it in different colors because it's so gooood." —Tiffany"The fabric is thick and holds its shape, the color is bright and stunning—sort of an orangey, red tomato color. I am curvy and have a bigger lower belly/ hips and this dress looks so good. I found that it's easy to breastfeed in too because of the elastic at the shoulders. Love it! Wish there were more colors!!!" —KassiaPrice: $30.60 (available in sizes XS–XXL and four colors)

The dress is fully lined (in polyester, my only beef). The hemline isn't just folded and sewn, it's taken a step further with a banded hem. The pockets are deep. The straps are adjustable. You don't need to wear a bra!!" —Stephanie"Listen, I'm a bougie girl. I love looking fancy, I have a lot of designer bags, but I saw this dress on TikTok and I needed it. My expectations were low, "I'm like, 'Hey I have a Walmart close by, I can always return it.'" Needless to say, I've purchased two others in different colors because I love it so much. I get so many compliments on it. It is my favorite dress. I basically live in it. It's the best!" —KatePrice: $19.99 (originally $26; available in sizes S–XXXL and five colors)

The waistline is a little high if you want to wear a belt with it. if you have broad shoulders, it will accentuate those." —Jennifer"Let me start by saying I am petite 5'0'. It hits mid calf and it does not drag on the ground. This is so pretty and I wear it with wedge sandals or low profile sandals and I feel so beautiful in it. I do have to use fashion tape if I want to wear it off the shoulders. Otherwise, wearing it on the shoulders, it looks really nice as well. The colors are vibrant and I get compliments everywhere I go. The quality of the fabric is so nice and it's not see through." —TdcarePrice: $19.99 (originally $26; available in sizes M–XXXL and three colors/patterns)

The fit is perfect for me and I live in dresses all summer." —Barbara"Great fit and good quality. Fabric is lightweight and comfortable." —GrandmaPrice: $18.44 (originally $34; available in sizes XS–XXL and three colors)
A one-shouldered midi dress because who doesn't love an adjustable waistband?! Cinch it or wear it loose for a versatile and adaptable fit while showing off a little skin with this botanical printed piece.

Win win!" —ElizabethPrice: $32 (available in sizes XS–XXL and two colors)
A green floral print mini dress made in a rayon/linen blend to help you beat the heat. This piece screams daytime coffee date. Pair it with some strappy sandals and a wicker bag to complete the look.

Promising review: "I am in love with this dress and how it doesn't touch your body, but still gives you a shape, thick enough it feels high end, and well made but not hot, doesn't show lines from under your dress. I'm 5'10' and ordered a large in the olive color and it hits right above knee and I can wear a bra without it showing. Seriously, best dress ever and it's $10!!!" —JuliePrice: $9.98 (available in sizes XS–XXXL and three colors)

This is perfect for the summer. I love it." —Stephen"At this price point you get a lot of polyester, but not here. Cool, crisp cotton and it looks really nice on. The top ties back so you can adjust it to fit perfectly." —ShoppaholixPrice: $13 (originally $17; available in sizes XS–4X and six colors)
A floral smocked mini cami dress with a tiered skirt because the teensy blue florals are the cutest. The relaxed fit and adjustable straps are just the cherry on top.
Just be sure to size up if you like a roomy fit in the bust area.Promising review: "Very cute and dainty!! Bust area runs REALLY small—I am only a 34A and the small was uncomfortably tight.

I purchase this dress every year, renewing from last year's. I buy at least four to five colors every year! I cannot recommend this enough!!!" —ZMB"I have been wearing this dress for many years.

A smocked off-the-shoulder midi dress in this gorgeous bright lilac shade. It's made with a textured, 100% cotton fabric and features pleated ruching on the skirt to add some visual interest. I'm imagining this at the chicest garden party. 👒

The collar is a boat design that lands about two inches of flexible cover at the beginning of your arm/shoulder. The elastic ribbed torso area is not tight." —Juanita"I love the fact that it's cotton and easy to tie-dye. Cute off-the-shoulder. Skirt gave it a flow.

I have an expensive blouse that looks very similar. I wish they had the blue one in stock too! A real value even at full price. It's not too tight, but also not draggy and too hangy. I'm an 8/10 and got the large because I did not want it to be skin tight. Perfect!" —Judy"Gorgeous dress. It isn't sheer and has a nice thickness to the fabric so it hangs beautifully. I bought in yellow and black." —AshleyPrice: $14.99 (available in sizes XS–XXXL)

Family of 5 Go Viral for $1K Grocery Hauls. Now They're Breaking Down the Reality of the Hefty Price Tag (Exclusive)
YouTubers Gabby and Christian Carlin talk with PEOPLE about grocery shopping for a family of fiveNEED TO KNOW Gabby and Christian Carlin share how they involve their three kids in their grocery shopping routine, from building the list to picking the snacks The YouTube creators break down their monthly grocery costs and why they don't stick to a strict budget The parents of three also open up about balancing content creation with real-life parentingFor YouTube creators Gabby and Christian Carlin, grocery shopping with their kiddos is less about going viral and more about getting through the list, just like any other family. Gabby and Christian Carlin — who go by @TheCarlins on YouTube — are parents to three children, Audrey, 5, Asher, 4, and Abbie, 2, often sharing their family adventures with a growing online audience. Among their most popular content is peeks at their monthly grocery shopping hauls, where viewers often weigh in with their guesses on the price tag. They admit to PEOPLE that buying groceries with three little ones in tow is no easy feat. 'When we do our groceries, we always come with a big list,' Christian tells PEOPLE exclusively. 'Whenever we run out of something, we tell Amazon, 'Alexa, add this to the list,' because if not, we're going to forget.' Naturally, with three kids, sticking to the list isn't always easy. The kids sometimes try to sneak items into the cart — 'Asher, he's like a little ninja,' Christian says of their 4-year-old son — so they make it a point to have them check in before adding anything. 'Sometimes it's something that we actually need,' Christian adds. 'They're so aware of what we need — they're so smart.' To avoid impulse buys, the Carlins say they usually head to the store after breakfast, which helps curb cravings and keep their purchases focused and shopping may be a routine task for the Carlins, but in their household, it's something the kids actually look forward to. 'We just tell 'em, 'Hey, we're going to go do groceries,' and they get super excited because they love going with us,' Gabby time, even staple items have become a source of excitement — from frozen mangoes and peaches to a recent family favorite: Sam's Club egg bites. 'It's like we're going to Starbucks at home,' she adds. 'We make them their little meal, and they eat it.' With a home full of activities — from dance and football to swim lessons and homeschooling — grocery trips also double as prep for the week ahead. The Carlins rely on easy, grab-and-go snacks like fruit, yogurt and veggie chips to keep their kids fueled throughout the go-to picks include easy handheld items like mandarins, veggie chips, yogurt drinks, Babybel cheese and string cheese snacks that travel well between sports, dance and days at the also keeps a small bag in the car stocked with diapers, wipes and other essentials. It's a system that comes in handy not just for the baby, but also for the older kids. 'Even for the bigger kids, the wipes are always needed,' she parents of three don't necessarily have a budget when it comes to groceries, and for good reason. Buying in bulk from Sam's Club allows them to stock up on essentials for the month, while weekly trips to Publix help replenish fresh produce, dairy and other household items as needed. 'Groceries are so expensive,' Gabby says. 'We just need to get what we need, because if we have everything at home, we have no reason to eat out [at a restaurant].' 'When we do go to Sam's Club, it literally lasts us a whole month,' Christian adds. 'People are like, 'Oh my gosh, between $500 and $600 at Sam's Club for a family of five,' but it lasts us a whole month.'Still, the Carlins make quick stops at Publix throughout the week — often for fresh produce, milk or other perishables — which adds to their overall grocery bill. 'So, five to seven hundred for Sam's Club, but on top of that, we go to Publix every week, so that's probably like $120 to $200 a week,' Christian says. All in all, the Carlins spend about $1,000 a month to keep the whole family well-fed and ready for their action-packed days. For the parents of three, what began as a fun, creative outlet while they were still in college has since evolved into a full-time career, one built on authenticity and lots of teamwork behind the scenes. Still, quality time with their family is the priority. 'We are a complete team in this house,' Christian says. 'Family time is the most important.' 'Every day looks so different, so we balance it out,' Gabby adds. Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword

I tried on 13 Reitmans dresses on sale for under $75 — if you're in your 40s or 50s, these styles are seriously good
Minis, maxis and more — most of these stylish frocks are under $50. If you're Canadian, you might be familiar with Reitmans. The brand is known for their smart, sophisticated clothing that doesn't break the bank — but until recently, I'd never actually stepped foot in a store before. As a busy mom of two, I'm usually ordering clothes online from Amazon, but during a recent emergency trip to Walmart (where I also snapped up this stunning wicker chair — on sale!), I stumbled into a Reitmans in the same plaza — and I was blown away. I ended up trying on more than a dozen dresses, and was surprised how well they fit my 48-year-old body. For me, aging isn't just about gaining weight; it's more about weight shifting (thanks, menopause!). That stubborn mom pooch won't budge no matter what I do. But the way these dresses fit and fall made me feel like the best version of myself. Even better? They're all currently on sale, and they come in a wide range of sizes from XXS to 3X. Check out some of my favourite Reitmans dresses for summer 2025 (and beyond!) below. Split-Neck Shift Dress $36 $60 at Reitmans I love the playfulness of this striped dress. Its non-stretch woven fabric feels like linen, and those short flutter sleeves provide just the right amount of coverage. It's such a cute dress that you can easily pair with casual flip-flops or dressier wedge sandals, taking you from day to night in a pinch. However. one reviewer mentioned that the dress is "very see-through," so definitely keep that in mind when choosing your undergarments. Puffy-Elbow-Sleeve Dress with Split Neckline $22 $75 at Reitmans This chic shirt dress is so easy to style, and features a removable sash, so I'm also looking forward to pairing it with a thicker leather belt. The dress runs big — I'm wearing an XXS, and it was still a bit loose — so keep that in mind when deciding on sizing. Sleeveless Square-Neck Midi Dress $42 $70 at Reitmans The moment I slipped into this vintage-inspired dress, I was all set for a fun day out with the girls. The midi length is perfect, and the bodice hugs my curves for a super-flattering fit. Sleeveless V-Neck Maxi Dress $41 $100 at Reitmans This was my favourite dress of the bunch. The longer length and V-neckline fit my smaller frame so comfortably, and the high elastic waistband showcased my curves in the best way possible. Plus, I really appreciated the support from the thicker straps, making it a fantastic option for a variety of bust sizes. Cap-Sleeve Mini Dress with Square Neckline $22 $75 at Reitmans One reviewer called this dress a "summer must-have" — and I couldn't agree more. The capped sleeves and self-tie back give it such a unique style. Plus, the waistline falls a little higher, keeping it from landing right on my mom pooch. T-Shirt Dress $30 $60 at Reitmans I'm obsessed with T-shirt dresses — they're so casual, cute and comfy. I tried this on in a small, but I'd probably size down to an XS for a less oversized fit. You can cuff the sleeves for a quick coffee run or throw it on over your bathing suit for a fun day at the beach. And hey, if I'm too tired to change at the end of the day? It doubles as a cute sleep shirt. Short-Sleeve Buttoned-Down Dress with Shirt Collar $42 $70 at Reitmans This "super soft" collared button-down shirt dress is the very definition of low-maintenance style. I can wear it with sneakers, sandals or even heels! Come fall, I'd pair it with tights and cowboy boots. Sleeveless Fit-and-Flare Dress $26 $80 at Reitmans The crochet bodice of this fit-and-flare dress is a total showstopper. I also appreciated the 100 per cent cotton lining, and who doesn't love a sweetheart neckline? While I loved the look of the adjustable knit straps with buttons, I noticed the buttonholes got a bit stretched out, causing the straps to loosen. For that reason, I'd recommend sizing down to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions. Cap-Sleeve Buttoned-Down Midi Dress with Cinched Waistband $48 $80 at Reitmans This dress didn't stand out on the rack, but I was so glad I tried it on. The capped sleeves and split neckline with a shirt collar fit perfectly. Also the cinched waistband kept it from being too drapey, giving it a more tailored look. And let's talk about the button-down front. It really makes this longer dress a bit sexier. It's such a fun dress, easily taking you from work to play. Milkmaid Midi Dress with Bubble Sleeves $54 $90 at Reitmans Reitmans is really nailing it with the sweetheart necklines. The versatility of the short bubble sleeves makes it a great work or play dress, and it'll work well into fall. I also really like the zip closure in the back, which helps the dress fit more securely. It is roomy on top, so if you are small-chested like me, I would size down. Sleeveless Midi Dress $45 $75 at Reitmans This A-line maxi dress is effortlessly flattering. I also love the elastic neckline in the back, making it much easier to get on and off. The seam pockets are, of course, a major plus. I can totally see myself wearing this for a casual night out. I might even shake things up by adding a thick belt for a more tailored look. The soft viscose-nylon blend fabric is ideal for those humid nights when you don't want anything touching your skin. With its timeless style, it's no wonder 91 per cent of reviewers recommend this dress. Extended-Sleeve Shift Dress with Split Neckline $36 $60 at Reitmans The rounded hem of this flowy shift dress makes it such a fun choice, especially combined with the bold pattern. I used to shy away from patterns, but as I've gotten older, I've found them to be very forgiving. This crinkly fabric is great for travel — no ironing required! Extended-Sleeve Midi Dress with Ruched Side $36 $60 at Reitmans There's no such thing as too many little black dresses. This one, with its ruched side and sexy slits, is perfect for a day at the office, or a night on the town. The bodycon silhouette adds a playful touch to this stretch knit dress. I'm also very into the extended sleeves for those days when you want a more modest look. It's not too tight, either, so I won't feel self-conscious about it hugging my body in all the wrong places.
