What to Wear from Summer Into Fall: Chadwick's Shirtdress

We have always loved shirtdresses for their versatility and egalitarian-chic vibe. This shirred ponté knit dress from Chadwicks.com is the perfect item to spruce up your summer wardrobe, then carry you stylishly into fall.

Pair with sexy strappy KORS heels while the weather is still warm; doll up with dark tights and boots as temperatures begin to drop. Not too shabby for a classy frock that's just $39.99.

The shirtdress incorporates several timeless trends all into a comfortable outfit, that's both easy to wear, and easy to accessorize! I achieve my favorite shirtdress look by wearing any khaki color (olive or light brown work best w/ my hair + skin tone) and spicing it up with a cuff bracelet on one arm, a few silver bangles on the other, silver hoop earrings, and a chic silver necklace. It's casual and fun enough to wear on a nice summer day with flip flops, and the best part is... throw on some pumps or strappy sandals for a great look to wear to your favorite nightspot on any given day of the week! Cheers to fashion!

Khaki is our fave color, too! Or a sahara sand color. Love your choice of accessories.

great idea with the jewelry. shirtdresses can be dressed up or down. wear to work, then wear out to dinner.
they've been around for ages and keep coming back in style.
just goes to show - classics rule!
