Madewell Gingham Dress

This dress is definitely growing on me. I wore it for the second time last weekend (here’s the first round) for a rainy Sunday of visiting open houses (including the prettiest home from the late 1800s that we would have considered if it wasn’t so far away from Madison). The weather was terrible and only one photo made the cut, but sometimes that’s all you need!

Madewell Gingham Dress

Another week, another dress I’m likely packing for our upcoming trip. (Which is coming up in 24 days, but who’s counting?) I’m completely on the fence about this dress, though. One one hand, it’s incredibly comfortable (so soft!) and easy to pull on for weekend wear. On the other hand, it’s a bit too tomboy for my usual tastes. If you spring for it, it does run true to size and I’d recommend adding a slip underneath for extra coverage when you sit down (the space between the buttons can gap open if you’re not careful).
