21 Throw-On-and-Go Dresses That Require Zero Effort Whatsoever
Some days you just don’t have time to think. On such days, you need a hero piece in your wardrobe to save you time, effort, and stress. For us, that piece is unquestionably an easy-to-wear, throw-on-and-go statement dress—one that will instantly elevate your outfit with zero effort or additions required. At most, a pair of staple knee-high boots and a jacket will suffice to finish your effortless look.

Yep, you can even forgo all the accessories if you wish. Scroll below as we share our favorite throw-on-and-go dresses for fall.
