Part dress, part jammies. At least that is what this dress feels like to me. Like many gals I am a sucker for blue & white stripes. So despite already having a dress almost juuuuuust like this, I couldn't resist this one when I saw it at Anthropologie. Whereas in the winter the work uniform tends to lean heavily on the yoga pants, the summer work uniform leans heavily on long soft maxi dresses. Although I am a sort of short 5'5 I love maxi dresses, I know they likely make me look even shorter, but somehow I feel tall in them.
Also, I know that it is sort of nerdy to smile in these outfit photos, but believe me, I look sort of awful in photos when I do not smile, so despite it not being terribly cool to smile, it's better than the alternative, so nerd it up I will.

Cute!
lovely dress! i just bought a navy & white stripe one.
maxis are so comfy and I too feel they make you feel taller, even though you may be shorter :)
gotta love those long dresses!! if anyone can make pajamas look glamorous it's you.
I love the dress! I just fell head over heels for a blue wrap an Anthro. I just love that place!
I loooooove maxi dresses for that reason! feels like wearing pjs all day but nobody can tell!
if smiling isn't cool, i don't want to be cool.
also, you look awesome. and tall! like a goddess.
I would have never guessed that you were 5'5, you always look way taller in your photos. I just bought a maxi dress this last week and being 5'4 I thought the same thing, but it feels like it works, I hope it looks the same way:)
If I saw this dress too I would have def picked it up! No matter how many i have just like! So cute and it looks so comfy!
