We’re almost halfway through summer and I cannot stop wearing this dress. (More sizes here, size 10 here, size 0 here.) When I first shared it last month you guys went nuts. It was the most popular item I’ve ever shared – and with good reason. It’s beautiful construction, neutral hue, and easy shift silhouette make it an effortless and versatile summer piece. The perfect summer staple, I’ve styled it countless ways based on where I am. I’ve worn it in London, Capri, and Maine, mixing up my accessories to make it work in such a diverse set of destinations. Now it’s on major sale so this is your sign to scoop one up for yourself if you haven’t already. I’ve scoured the internet to find all the remaining sizes for you. (One note: I’m 5’9″ and this is the shortest I would go for a dress. I’ve been wearing tennis shorts underneath. If you’re taller it might be a bit risqué.)

While on the topic of most-worn items, this cardigan and these slides deserve honorable mentions. This cardigan is the perfect weight and a timeless stripe for 4 season wear wherever you are: whether it’s Paris, New England and beyond! It looks much more expensive than it’s $138 price point due to the substantial knit of the cotton and just-right brass buttons. I love pairing the cropped lady jacket style with dresses, shorts, and trousers, or even just draped over the shoulders on a chilly night out. You’ve seen these slides popping up in many of my daily looks. They’re definitely an investment, but they pair with almost any summer outfit and have held up brilliantly to miles of walking on European cobblestones. Plus they are super comfortable right out of the box and never caused my feel to blister. I am in love and considering them in other colors! Lastly, this handsome Senreve bag just arrived as a kind gift from the brand and I have to say I’m so impressed! I’ve been slow to try their handbags because many of their earlier styles didn’t speak to me but the subtle equestrian styling of their Cadence bag reminds me of my favorite Gucci bag at a much friendlier price point. The cabernet color is going to be amazing as we head into fall.

Thank you so much for your recent tips on more affordable styles. I could immediately the difference, though, between your budget-friendly picks and your usual style. Quality does matter and your style is impeccable. I definitely use you as an inspiration for classic, timeless dressing!
Love the classic shift paired with the lady jacket cardigan! This look would be so easy to dress up for work with a pair of heels.

Hi Maria – Totally! I’m looking forward to wearing this combo with this pair of navy ballet flats come fall. 🙂
Hi Stacie! Would you please share which tennis shorts you wear under this dress and/or ones you highly recommend to wear under dresses? I have been having zero luck on finding ones that will work under my dresses.

Hi Calene! My favorites are the shorts that come with Renwick Tennis Dresses (only sold as a set I think!) I have a few other pairs including this pair by Recreational Habits (I just make sure the skirt fabric is thick enough you can’t see the logo) and this pair from Tory Burch (seems they’re almost sold out online).I hope that helps point you in the right direction! xx Stacie
Love it Stacie! Sweater is so versatile and could look cute too with pants, jeans and a skirt. Thank you for showing it with that great shift dress! I agree too about the slides as I have pair from a different brand and find I am wearing them with everything. Look forward to more budget friendly looks . Thank you!
Hi Stacie, what is the size of your Jcrew cardigan ?
Thank you x

Hi! I’m wearing my normal size – an XS. I’d say it’s true to size if you want bare arms underneath it. If you want a long sleeved shirt under it I would consider sizing up! xx Stacie
