Three words a cute striped dress brings to mind; versatile, comfortable, and classic! However there is one additional word I can use to describe the striped dress I got from Old Navy; it's BARGIN!!! I buzzed into Old Navy a couple weeks ago looking for summer clearance deals for our boys for back to school and so while I'm there, of course I must puruse the ladies clearance as well!
Imagine my delight when I saw the striped dress hanging in the little group of my size! I sometimes shy away from dresses like this as they make my stomach look a little pouchy! However, to my delete this one was so flattering when I put it on and guess what the price tag was? Yep it was clearance down to $10.97!! Woo hoo? When I got in my car I started thinking of all the possibilities to style this baby. These first two came to mind. While it's still warm I'll just wear it alone, with some T-strap sandals or little canvas
Ked tennis shoes!
When it gets cooler, I'll sport it with this button down chambray shirt, a Jean jacket or A cardigan! Another win for me, is that it is that it is my beloved midi dress! I have been having the hardest time finding midi dresses and I love the classic, timeless hems so much.
Chambray Top: Loft
(Could've bought 4 dresses for the price of this top, but I love it)
You can run to Old Navy, you might still be able to find one. I kind of think it even makes my booty look good, ha ha and that's a tough order to fill.
I love it with a big chunky black tote. I caved and on the last weekend of the Nordstrom sale I bought a couple things including this vegan tote. Similar Here

Hey sunshine! This dress is super cute on you. I really like it styled with the denim shirt and white tennis shoes. It gives the outfit a casual, pulled-together vibe I miss seeing you regularly like I did for the summer linkup.
