I’m such a fan of the easy, “throw-on” dress when I need to run around town for a few errands. I like to keep it simple, but it’s great to know I can look put together without a ton of effort involved. Thank you, simple throw-on dress!
This red and blue striped dress immediately caught my attention at Marshalls. It was the perfect length, and has such a nice cut: I love the v-neck in the front.
I also appreciate the fact that the stripes are set in different directions. The angled stripes on the top come together at the waist, creating the illusion of a smaller waistline and an hourglass shape. And check out the fun mix on the back of the dress – fun!
Dress: Monteau, purchased at Marshalls, $19.99
Handbag: Ivanka Trump, purchased at Marshalls, $70
Sandals: Steve Madden, purchased at Marshalls, $20
Do you have your own set of “throw-on” dresses for easy days on the go?
I love the waist detail on that dress! You find the cutest stuff at Marshalls!
Thanks! That was definitely a lucky find for me…I couldn’t believe it was only $20!
I have been on the hunt for easy going dresses lately because they’re PERFECT for FL weather. I have one from NY&Co that I wish I had 5 of!!! I will have to post when I find some good ones like this- I love the details!
Oh yes, you are going to learn to embrace the throw-on dress…having something a little light and breezy is essential. We’re getting into the hot season here….prepare yourself! 😉
I fell in love with that same dress at Marshall’s and was so sad when it fit me all wrong! It looks wonderful on you!
Oh no! 🙁 I hate when that happens…
Love the shape of this dress! So pretty.
Thanks! It was a lucky find for sure…
Hi. I’m new to your blog but enjoy your simple, classy style! Kindred spirit. I, too, also love the “toss on” dress (great way to describe what it truly is) and have loved seeing how popular dresses have become. I hit a great sale at Macy’s and picked up THREE great dresses. All are wrap or pull on, colorful, great with sandals or heels and comfy and sexy at the same time. Love your blue/red combo. Also love Marshalls!
Thanks so much, Jennifer! I really have had to learn to adapt to the heat and humidity here, and dresses like this one are my life saver! And you’ve got to love a sale…I haven’t been to Macy’s in a while – now you’re making me want to go check it out!
That is ADORABLE on you – So glad to see that dresses are so popular right now!!!
I LOVE this dress!! I am going to have to get to Marshalls asap! Did you buy it recently?
Beka – I bought it maybe 3 weeks ago? Haha, in Marshalls time that might be a while, but you can check!
I know exactly what you mean; I love those items that require no thought. You simply throw ’em on, and you’re out the door!
I love that dress, so pretty on you

Seriously, WHICH Marshall’s are you shopping at?!? I can never find anything at my local Marshall’s!
My usual Marshalls is the one in Oldsmar!
Such a cute print and adorable dress. Love it on you.

Fantastic dress…perfect to dress up or down. Love that you kept it simple…when a dress fits that great…bag and shoes are all you need! I have heard wonderful things about the Ivanka bag line….yours definitely does not disappoint:)
