It’s hard to believe that we’re nearing the end of July! Summer vacation is coming to an end, and back to school season will soon be upon us. Now is a great time to shop for back to school clothing, especially back to school dresses for teens as you can save a bundle! The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale early access kicked off last week for cardholders, and it officially kicks off tomorrow (Friday, July 20, 2018) for everyone. There are so many great dresses at deeply discounted prices, it’s unbelievable!
When the sale kicked off last week I featured a few of the best shoes, fall fashion finds, jackets and sweaters, but hadn’t had a chance to feature a few of the trendy dresses the sale has to offer. I figured today would be a great day to do so, especially since many of you are shopping for back to school. These dresses are great for the high school or college student, they are also a must for women of all ages! Some of the dresses aren’t part of the sale, but they’re at such great prices, you would think they are on sale!
Without further adieu, here are a few trendy casual back to school dresses for teens, high school, and college students! Don’t forget, these are dresses that we can ALL wear regardless of age.

Tie Waist Dresses For Back to School!
It’s no secret, tie waist dresses and tie front dresses are definitely having a moment! They are just a few of the hottest fashion trends for girls and women of all ages. I recently shared a few fabulous tie waist dresses, and can’t get enough of this fun trend.
Tie waist dresses will look amazing with slide sandals, flat sandals, wedge sandals, and ankle booties too. Here are a few trendy tie waist back to school dresses you will love.
This cute and casual tie waist dress is part of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. It has such amazing reviews and is on sale for $31.90. I love how they styled it with sneakers. It will look great with the shoe of your choice! PS: It comes in heather gray and in black, but both are selling out very quickly. If your size is sold out, I would definitely keep checking as you never know when it will be restocked.
This cute side knot dress is a twist on the popular tie front trend! To tell you the truth, I adore it just as much. Some days you want a tie right in the front, while others you’d prefer it on the side. Am I right? 😉 This popular side knot dress is selling out fairly quickly! If it’s on your wish list make sure you grab it ASAP as there are only a few sizes left!
Best Floral Print Back To School Dresses
Floral print dresses are trendy, fun and perfect for fall! Floral prints have been one of the hottest fashion trends in 2018, and it’s easy to see why – they look great on every woman, can be dressed up or down easily and effortlessly, and are perfect for a variety of occasions.
Here are a few trendy floral print dresses that are perfect for back to school, the weekend and after work!
I love this floral print blouson dress. It is so flattering! It comes in a few different colors. If you love stripes, you definitely have to check it out as they have a striped version as well! This dress is perfect for the first day back to school, it will also be a must for a variety of events from weekend brunch to your cousin’s bridal shower, and more!
This trendy and affordable fall inspired floral print dress is selling out quickly! I love everything about it – from the ruched short sleeves to the wrap skirt. Can you believe it is only $52.90? I can’t either! It will look so cute with wedge sandals, your favorite boho chic sandals, and suede ankle booties! PS: Don’t forget the price will go up on August 6th once the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale ends!
This pretty fall inspired floral print dress is part of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale as well! It’s currently under $100, but will be $149.99 once the sale ends. Don’t you just love it? I do too, especially the ruffled hem. You can pair it with a suede moto jacket, leather moto jacket or denim jacket once it starts getting chilly in the morning.
You can’t go wrong with bell sleeves for fall, especially this fun white and pink floral print dress with bell sleeves and a ruffled yolk. It’s less than $43 during the #nsale, which makes it even better!
I’m all about boho chic clothing, especially this fun boho inspired floral print dress with lace detailing! It also comes in black, and it’s just as fab. Pair it with your favorite booties or sandals for fall, and you’re set.
Fun Athleisure Inspired Dress
Nothing says 90s inspired athleisure quite like Sporty Spice of the Spice Girls and rock star Gwen Stefani. Nobody rocked Adidas quite like them! This summer and fall, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is giving you a chance to do so with this cute Adidas dress. It’s only $44.90 during the sale! Pair it with your favorite flip flops, Adidas sneakers or slide sandals and you’re set.
Gingham Dresses Are Always A Must!
Gingham is a very popular trend for 2018! I’m loving everything – from gingham tops, pajama sets, shorts and dresses too. You just can’t go wrong with gingham, especially this gingham check shift dress with ruffled sleeves (and a ruffled hem). It is the perfect casual dress. You can wear it this summer and into fall too!
The Cutest Ruffle Sleeve Back To School Dresses!
This ruffle sleeve dress is selling out like crazy. I just checked and there are a few sizes left in this strawberry print. It also comes in red, which is just as fabulous. They’re both on sale for under $30 (40% off). Sadly this dress is not part of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, so it is unlikely that it will be restocked in other sizes. If you love this dress be sure to grab it ASAP before it sells out!
I have had this extremely popular ruffled sleeve t-shirt dress on my wish list for quite some time. Do you remember how quickly it sold out last summer? Every time anyone tried to get their hands on it, it was sold out! I’m so excited to see that they restocked it in even more colors. I have been living in dresses all summer long and just ordered it in black. I will be sure to report back on the fit once it arrives! I definitely have high hopes for it.
Button Down Dresses Are A Must For Fall!
If there’s one thing I’ve noticed on social media over the last few months, it’s definitely the rising popularity of button down dresses and button front dresses. They are everything! I recently shared a few of the best button down dresses on the blog. Since this is a budget-friendly post, I had to feature this trendy dress by Topshop. It is only $30! It comes in a wide variety of colors, and is very popular.
The Best Casual Stripe Dress!
This post might be titled “trendy back to school dresses for teens”, but one thing is definitely for sure, this casual stripe dress is the best stripe dress for women of all ages! You can pair it with a distressed denim jacket, a black leather moto jacket, a suede moto jacket and more. It will look cute with wedges, ankle boots, Hunter boots, and sandals in a variety of styles. I can’t get enough of this stripe dress! In fact, I’m pretty sure I had a similar one in the late 90s that I wore nonstop!
