The Find: A $25 Casual Friday Dress

I love a dress with sleeves, but they are nearly impossible to find in the summer. So when I spot one that looks promising, I am powerless not to give it a try.

This Amazon Essentials Relaxed A-Line dress is a nice option for casual work days and weekends. The dress comes in eight fantastic colors and prints from basic black to a bright citron. And the style is very wearable and versatile.

Plus, the material is viscose, so it washes up in cold water and hangs dry. That makes it a nice option for traveling when laundry facilities are at a premium.

Beyond that, we need to talk about sizing. I ordered the Small. Frankly, I read the reviews and everyone talked about how big the dress runs, so I instantly sized down. Thus, as a pear shaped person, it fits my hips and is still a little roomy in the bust, but not much. I would not, unless you are well-endowed, take my recommended size.

Sizing issues aside, I have already worn this dress twice in the two weeks I’ve had it because it’s one of the easiest throw on dresses I’ve ever owned. I added some sneakers and a denim jacket the first time. The second, I wore a trench and ballet flats.
