Another day, another pair of sweats. Anyone else feel me? It's been a month since I've been working from home due to the current pandemic circumstances, and while my daily uniform consists mostly of elastic waists, stretchy fabrics, and cozy sweats—which have undeniably been super comforting—I'd be lying if I said that I'm not feeling a smidgen of sweatpants fatigue right about now.
So in an effort to emerge myself out of a terry-fleece–induced rut, I've decided to add some lightweight and casual dresses into my daily rotation instead—just as comfortable, and perfect for a day filled with Zoom meetings. Moreover, they're perfect for the warmer temps just around the corner (let's not forget it's nearly summer, friends!). Today, I'm sharing some of my favorite long casual dresses—one of the most popular dress styles of 2020. From billowy maxi dresses to non-restrictive midis, pair these laid-back and relaxed picks with your favorite sneakers, sandals, and slippers this season.
