Summer WFH Items: A T-Shirt Maxi

May 18, 2020

Working from home has definitely changed how I feel about my wardrobe.  It’s not that my office clothing is uncomfortable, but with the current state of things, I need more comfort than my pencil skirts allow.  Enter the jersey maxi-dress.

I own a couple of Daily Ritual’s Jersey Crewneck Dresses, and they’re good.  BUT, but, I just ordered one of their Lived-In Crewneck Dresses, and it is better.

The fabric is more forgiving and a bit heavier weight, which is nice.  The dress comes in 13 colors and patterns.  As for sizing, the dress runs from XS to XXL.  I’m a small size 6 and pear-shaped, so an XS is a hair snug in the hips, which I prefer to the small that is too big in the waist.

These are great throw-on dresses for days when you need something easy that looks nice.  I usually wear mine with a denim jacket with the cuffs and collar turned up and a simple sandal.  Prefer a knee-length dress?  This t-shirt hem dress in the same lived-in fabric is worth a look.

    I’m wearing one right now! Albeit with pink fuzzy slippers…no one on my calls knows that 😉

    I live in DR jersey dresses in the summer anyway, but now more than ever! I can easily throw on a jacket or cardi for a video call (several times a day) and not feel like a schlub.

    Discovered these thanks to you – I’m wearing my black one, and had my olive maxi on over the weekend. They are the best!

    Wearing one right now (grey stripe) with a Barefoot Dreams cardigan! An essential!

    How long does the dress run? I’m 5’1” and wondering if this would be dragging on the floor.

    I lived in this dress last summer, washed and dried it twice a week and it still looks good. I just bought another in a different color a few weeks ago. Truly one of my top 5 purchases of all time.

When I was in my 20s, I bought every trendy nail polish, eye color, and lip gloss.  Sure, I could only wear them on the weekends, but why not wear emerald green liner?  In my 30s, I became enamored with skincare and took every “must-have” product for a spin.  But in my 40s, my skin […]

I love stocking stuffers.  They are the best part of Christmas.  There’s just nothing quite like an affordable gift that’s funny or useful or chic (or maybe all three).  So here is Part One of my stocking stuffer gift guides, where nothing costs more than $30.
