1. A ruffle wrap dress that'll ~ruff-le~ some feathers because everyone (and I mean everyone) will want to know where you got it from.
2. An oversized sweater dress so soft and cozy, it'll make you feel like you're being hugged all day long and, really, who doesn't want that???
3. A chiffon number to live out your Pretty In Pink fantasies without having to deal with going back to a high school dance ever again.
4. A plaid shirtdress you can wear on a fall date night when you plan to grab hot apple cider and walk around to see all the foliage.
5. A mini dress embellished with rhinestones so you'll really out ~shine~ everyone else you're around. 🎵Shine bright, shine far / Don't be shy, be a star / Where you live, where you are, be a star. 🎵
6. A casual maxi to throw on in the morning when you're running a bit late but still want to look cute and put together.
7. A velvet midi dress that's practically perfect for your holiday party but also like every day leading up to that. Don't sleep on this beauty!
8. A collared sweater dress to make people think that you're really good at layering and planning an outfit when all you did was take it off the hanger and put it on.
9. A knitted bodycon you can throw on when you're in a ~cinch~ and want to look cute but also not put too much effort into looking cute. It's a delicate balance that this dress totally nails.
10. A tunic dress with embroidered sleeves designed to make you feel just darling. So much so that you'll have to stop to take a pic.
11. A classic wrap dress perfectly designed to hug you your body and make you feel comfortable and confident. You'll be able to take on whatever the day throws your way when you're wearing this.
12. A beaded dress just ~pearl-fect~ to wear on a Monday because sometimes you need something that'll make you feel good and smile to get you out of your Monday slump.
13. A scalloped hem a-line that looks like a simple dress from far away, but from close up, everyone will notice the super cool design on the hem!
14. A lace off-the-shoulder dress to help you get into the full ~swing~ of fall wedding season. Just remember, if people who wear suits get to wear the same one to every wedding, it's totally okay to wear the same dress.
15. A t-shirt dress with pockets (!!!) so you have a place to stash your lipstick and phone when you don't want to carry your whole purse.
16. A cinched waist dress so simple yet stylish, you'll wear it at least once a week.
17. A chambray shirtdress that looks just as good with wedges as it does with tall boots because it's good to have pieces in your closet that can do both. 👏
18. A sweater dress with bell sleeves you can wear to work and then out to dinner with your friends without feeling overdressed at all.
19. A bodycon you'll be ~plaid~ to have this fall and next fall and the fall after that because it will never go out of style.
20. A stunning fit and flare that proves you don't have to sacrifice your style if you prefer to dress more modestly.
21. A boho number so you can leave the house feeling like you're wearing pajamas when in fact you look super cute and put together.
22. A long-sleeved T-shirt dress you can slip on when it's just too much effort to put on pants.
23. A bell sleeve number so lightweight you can wear it all year. Just add tights and a sweater in fall/winter, and you'll be G2G.
24. An off-the-shoulder lace number that'll make you feel like a million bucks every time you wear it.
25. A sweater dress to help ~wrap~ up any feelings you have about it being fall. Fall is great because you get to wear amazing dresses like this one.
26. A lace dress for that fancy gala you totally forgot you RSVP'd "yes" for.
