Mother’s Day Sale: Spring Dresses Under $50

Connected Apparel Peacock Print Tie Waist Dress

My birthday is in May. And though I'm still "safely in my 50s," as my husband likes to says, I don't look forward to celebrating the day of my birth the way I did, say, 40 years ago. Instead, I prefer to focus on Mother's Day. I welcome any and all expressions of appreciation for dear-old-mom, including breakfast in bed, brunch at a favorite restaurant, a barbecue, a bunch of tulips--whatever. In fact, I don't mind basking in the glory of motherhood all weekend. This weekend, I may spend time in the garden, go see "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel" movie or do some shopping. With all the Mother's Day sales over the next few days, I pretty sure I'll do a little bargain hunting. If you need of a pair or sandals or a beach cover up, I strongly recommend you check out your favorite shopping destinations. Chances are you'll find some great savings. Take, for instance, the Connected Apparel Peacock Print Tie Waist Dress (was $70, now $42) above for Beall's online department store. Take 40% off our entire stock of womens dresses on BeallsFlorida.com from 5.3-5.13! Choose from over 300 styles of dresses including sundresses, cocktail dresses, and lace dresses. Beall's has a nice selection of comfortable dresses with or without sleeves for women over 50. Read on for a few more examples.

Here in the Northeast, we've been having what Hemingway called a "false spring." We're still waiting for the weather to warm up. Consequently, I've been wearing a khaki green shirt dress I picked up over jeggings a lot. I love my shirtwaist dress because I can style it with or without the jeggings and with different belts and boots or sandals. Here's a summery shirtwaist dress that might look great over white jeggings or leggings and sandals.

This next dress isn't actually a dress. It's a two-piece top and skirt set. But since the look is dress-like, Beall has included it in the sale.

There's a lot of black and white garments this spring. You'll find white blouses or cardigans with black piping or vice versa. Polka dots are also big this season. I like the bold B&W pattern of this next Beall's dress.
