A casual striped option with some ruffled sleeves to make it feel a bit special but not super dressy. We're keeping it casual rn. A versatile tiered maxi dress to layer with your longer-sleeve tops so you can comfortably sit in your chilly office. A flared vintage-inspired dress you'll wanna buy after your next Hairspray is always a great idea. A pom-pom strap maxi for a stylish twist on the "nap dress" style we all rely on to keep us cool and chic when the sun starts to bake. Twirling in this is, in fact, mandatory, and lack of twirl is punishable by nap dress law.
