Easy, casual dresses have always been a favorite of mine. If you find the right one, it can quickly become (in my opinion) even more valuable than the always-popular LBD (little black dress)! Because the perfect ECD (easy, casual dress) allows you to look put together with minimal effort and a lot of comfort. Two characteristics always high up on my priority list… :)
dress OFF THE SHOULDER SWING DRESS | boots NAVY HIGH GLOSS HUNTER BOOTS (new colors here) | button down GINGHAM BUTTON DOWN | watch MICHAEL KORS WATCH | earrings PEARL STUDS
That’s why I immediately fell in love with this striped swing dress! Not only does it meet all of the qualifications of the ECD, it’s darling off-the-shoulder neckline set it apart from the pack. And if there’s one thing I love, it’s a good off-the-shoulder neckline! (Evidenced here, here and here.)
I paired it with my new navy hunter boots and tossed a favorite gingham button down around my waist for a casual preppy flare, but there are truly a million and one ways to wear this. Try riding boots and a waterfall cape for the chilly days of January, and transition to sandals or wedges and a crossbody when warmer weather allows!
Definitely a piece that will give you a lot of wear during these upcoming months as we transition from winter to spring. Thanks so much for stopping by, y’all. Have a great day!
Love from Texas,
Kate
