Loft Midi Skirt
Sneak preview!

Buy from Loft, $95

Short Sleeve Matte Jersey Smocked Kimono Dress

The modern silhouette of this jersey kimono-sleeve dress from White House Black Market makes dressing up or down a breeze. The feminine yet super comfortable fit of this dress creates an elegant silhouette that’s not too dressy and not too casual, featuring a V-neck, short sleeves, and blouson-style fit.
