Hi everyone! I got this dress recently for only $39.99 when J.Crew was running their 50% off final sale items. It’s still available and currently an extra 40% off. I was nervous about the linen blend but it seemed to wear well throughout the day. Even when it got a little wrinkly from sitting, it still looked professional and polished. I like buying pieces that can easily transition into the weekend. I can switch out my pumps for sandals, throw on a floppy hat, a clutch and I’m ready for the weekend. I couldn’t decide between the navy stripes (looks like gray to me) and the clay sand (looks more like blush pink). I ended up with the clay sand color and have no regrets.
I’m happy to report the quality of this dress stays true to the J.Crew brand. The stripes line up on the sides, concealed zipper in the back and it’s fully lined. The only thing it’s missing…pockets! Doesn’t J.Crew know I have to have hide my remote when taking photos? lol I’ll give them a pass since they added bra keeps. Thanks for reading and have a great day! XO
These light colors provide a real air of charming and positive style. This dress looks very nice along with the skin-tone pumps. Beautiful, as always.

Hi! Love the dress. Would love to see it featured with a different background (e.g. greens and garden background). I think the brick background is too close in color with the dress and the dress details are not showing up as well as it could have. Lovely dress!
I had tried this dress on in the navy (which looks gray to me too) but it didn’t work out for me. What a great price that you scored this!

That’s a bummer. The a-line cut can be tricky. I’m glad I’m not color blind. It definitely looks gray:)
