Recently on vacation, my darling sister-in-law, Carolyn, sauntered out onto the porch in the most adorable beachy dress. She looked festive, relaxed, and in full summer mode. Absolutely perfect.
I begrudgingly asked her where the dress was from, already calculating in my head how I could possibly spring for another Anthro dress. Spoiler alert: post kitchen reno, I just simply can’t.
“Old Navy,” she replied, melty sauvignon blanc relaxing in her hand.
SCORE.
Now this I can wrap my mind around. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say this ‘vacation scene’ is the dress of summer 2015. Get it while you can. The print is killer in the most charming of ways – think ferris wheels and palm trees. It’s relaxed, it’s cool, it’s longer in the back (read: safe to bend over for diaper changes in the park). Basically, when you wear this you give off that easy, chill, beachy vibe of a gal who’s in love with summer.
And who doesn’t want to be that gal?
Exactly.
Hurry up – it’s on sale, right now. Happy shopping! And guess what? They even make a maternity version!

I needed a good reason to head to Old Navy. I love that dress and the colors and I especially love that there’s no elastic or belt on the waist. With back pain from injuries, I have to wear loose and comfy.

I’m 5 weeks postpartum with baby #2, which basically means that none of my usual summer clothes fit right at the moment. This dress would be perfect—stylish and trendy but still very forgiving. Thanks for the heads up!

This is adorable. This would be the perfect dress for where I live. It is so hot in Houston during the summer. With a jacket I could wear this all year long.
