I need to introduce you to the coolest thing, well, ever. I LOVE dresses. I wasn’t always this way. Last weekend, on Mother’s Day, I was reminded of the many times as a child that I refused to put on a dress, making my mother late and angry. While I still sympathize with my childhood self (was it a requirement that I wear a dress to go to a baby shower?), I can definitely see the irony. These days, I’d like to wear dresses literally every day. Here’s a wardrobe secret if you’re not a dress wearer: dresses are dead easy. No separates to match, no proportions to sort out, just put shoes and maybe a cardi on and you’re done.
All that is to say, imagine my pure, giddy, omg-can-you-believe-this-exists joy when I discovered…The Dress of the Month Club. Best part - though it sounds like it could be, it’s actually not a subscription or commitment at all. Each month they launch a new design and if you want it, you order. They make the dresses custom to your measurements so you know it’s going to be perfect. 
This adorable polka dot number? That’s May.

I’m thinking I may have to have this one, on the left:

And how cute is this:

I’m going to order one as a treat to myself very soon. If anyone else orders, I’d love to hear.

Isn’t she pretty?
I saw this dress at Anthro last week and fell in love. She’d look mighty  fine in my closet…
