Long time no blog! I know I keep saying “I’m busy”, but it’s truly the case right now. You know I’m a total advocate for summer and warm weather, but I think I might be ready for a change. Yes, I’ll instantly regret it once the summer actually does end, but life has just been way too busy lately and I’m drained.
Now that it’s August, we’re all trying to do our best to beat the heat. Luckily my outfit choices have helped keep me as cool as possible (although is it even possible to be cool right now?) during these 90 degree days.
Today I’m sporting a Banana Republic wrap dress, which also happens to be my first experience with a midi dress. Yes, I’m probably the last person I know to get something midi length. Truthfully, I never thought this style would look good on me, but this was the perfect time to try it out and see for myself. Turns out, midi dresses are pretty dang comfortable and so easy to move in. I still struggle with maneuvering in a maxi dress, so this still gives me length without being constricting. Love it!
I’ve also been wanting more wrap dresses in my closet. In the summer, my work routine can be described as chaotic. I live for easy, breezy dresses that look chic and put together with minimal effort. There’s something about a wrap dress that evokes something so chic. This particular dress has a pleated detail on the side that’s subtle but adds a nice twist. Welcome to my summer work wardrobe, midi dress!

Great dress, you can never go wrong with Banana Republic! I’m glad you did it, it actually looks very elegant on you!
This dress is so ladylike + pretty, doll! And I just love it with the lace-up sandals!
