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.
Belle says:
I’m 5’6″ and it’s an inch to two inches above my ankle bones.

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.
