My New Favorite Dress

I can’t stress enough how important comfortable fashion is to me….especially when the temps start to dial up. Since I am slowly reconstructing my wardrobe (more on that later) I’m determined to steer clear of any trendy items and specifically spend on items that are classic and are of good quality.

Gap Striped Relaxed T shirt Dress

 

 

Went to my cousin’s house a few weeks ago and fell in love with this dress. Hers was navy blue and white. As a stroke of blessings would have it, one of my favorite girls called me on the phone telling me about this amazing sale Gap was having. I ventured over and there was the dress. *cue angels singing*

Unfortunately it wasn’t in my preferred color but style and price trumped color. The dress was marked down to $19 with an additional 40%. I paid $11 for this dress and the original price was $50.

WIN. SCORE. DID THAT.

Love my dress. The jersey fabric is amazing  so I plan to take good care of and get good wear out of this simple dress.

Found an unbelievable deal lately? Do share!

    Dresses are my favorite summer time item. You put it on and you look GREAT even though it was minimal effort from you! This dress is really cute. GAP hasn’t been on my radar in quite some time (no store at my local mall) but that dress looks very chic and comfortable!

    Great find! Classes has been my MO for years, so I’m right there with you. I can totally see myself dressing this up for work and down for weekend grocery shopping and what not. 🙂 Lately, I’ve found some great sale items at Madewell.com (in-store too).

    One of the first things I do when I get home is throw off everything cute but uncomfortable and put on clothes I can just relax and lounge in. It’s great to see how you’ve combined comfort and style with this one piece!

    The article has been rather catching and interesting enough to receive all possible nuances to remember.
    I really do get pleasure from reading the content and the writing manner of
    this author, etc.. I suggest you write such sorts of posts
    every day to give the audience like me all the essential details.
    In my opinion, it is better to be ready for all the unexpected
    conditions ahead of time, so yes, it was quite cool.
