We’re really digging the colors and patterns on the dresses in Old Navy’s new neon nights collection.

The georgette halter dress, shown on left in the allover print, could go everywhere from a graduation party to chic seaside dinner. It’s just $39.50.

The halter dress on the right, $34.50, is a little sweeter and more casual. Run errands or hang around the house in style.

On the first cold day of fall, this dress will look like perfection with leggings and a long sweater over it.
