A girlfriend texted me Saturday with a question that was uniquely D.C. Her office is no longer suits and sheath dresses, but it’s not jeans and athleisure either. “Can an office be ‘semi-formal’?,” she pondered. “What do I wear for that?!” Enter the shirtdress, the solution for summer.

Welcome to the warm weather months. Outside, you will roast. Inside, you will freeze. The air conditioning will be your constant nemesis, as it “conditions” the air to a temperature that is primarily suitable for men. Luckily, this cardigan can keep you warm even when your fiery resentment wanes.

Nora Ephron was right: I feel bad about my neck. As I move through my forties, the creases have turned into chasms. The skin sags like a pair of sweatpants with aging elastic. It’s not great. But it’s just a natural part of getting older. Over the past year, it feels like I’ve tried every […]

I'd never think to look at Lands End for clothes! Great find!
My mom was recently in NYC and stumbled upon this store called Joe Fresh in midtown that she said kind of reminded her of H & M/ Uniqlo – she asked the sales clerk and it's a canadian store similar to those. She got me a silk shirt there, it was $39 dollars, a really beautiful blue, and looks pretty similar to the lands end one…so if anyone's in NYC, check that store out – sorry i don't have more info, but the shirt's held up great so far.
I love the Lands End shirt – beautiful color and drape!
I have to say this is one case where I'd go for the cheapest option. I own the LE shirt and tried on the JCrew a tone point. I normally like JCrew, but the Lands End has better drape and higher quality fabric.
Thanks for this!! Just bought the LE one at a great price… had been eyeing Blythe for weeks!!
WHOA! Since when did Lands End start getting super cute clothing??? I just bought this shirt in 2 colors and a bunch of other stuff. My closet says thanks Belle! But my wallet does not…
