The Autumn Day Dress

by Azucena Melchor

Here’s the situation: you’ve reached the end of summer and you’re ready for things to switch up again, but you’re still used to the comfortable clothes you’ve been wearing for the past year and a half while you worked or took classes from home. At the same time, you’re out in the world. You want to look your best! What do you need?...

… None other than a comfortable, chic autumn day dress.

All these styles pair perfectly with a cardigan.
