Thrifted Striped Dress

Today, I am sharing a simple thrifted dress I have enjoyed wearing the past couple of months. I have found myself reaching for dresses more this summer, so I have been browsing the dress section when I stop by the thrift store. Do I need more dresses in my closet? Probably not, but since I haven’t been reaching as much for some of mine, I decided to add a few.

It’s funny how people think you are dressed up if you are wearing something more than shorts and a tee while running errands. I have had friends ask if I am going somewhere special when I run my errands. No, it’s just a usual day in the life of someone who likes clothes!

I found some cream accessories in my closet to let the dress shine! I have worn this dress to church and on a week day and love the ease of wearing it. One and done!

With a busy week ahead, I have planned most of my outfits: I lay them out usually about 5 days ahead and make a few tweaks as necessary when I put them on. With a dress, usually there are no tweaks needed as I know how it will look. No time wasted in the morning.

Do you have any favorite dresses in your closet? I definitely have some that are on heavier rotations some years more than others. That is why I do not purge my closet, but occasionally edit it if something is worn or has really moved out of the style that I enjoy wearing.

A bientôt!
