What I'd Wear Wednesday: T-shirt dress
What I'd wear today if I could: a simple T-shirt dress.Except it's really not that simple.
Six full months of hot, rainy weather -- also known as hurricane season around these parts -- stretch out in front of me like a sentence, and a T-shirt dress seems to me today to be a great answer. It's easy (slip it over your head and add shoes) and cooling.
However, I couldn't find a decent T-shirt dress photo to post here. The T-shirt dresses I found were too short, had illustrations of wildlife on them (what's up with that?), were too tight or too loose. The famous Victoria's Secret T-shirt dress has snaps down the front, which, well, that's not really a T-shirt anymore, is it? The image I did post here -- no model, no frills, you can use your imagination -- was taken from a UK site that indicated two sizes were already sold out on this dress.
I say British women have the right idea, if this dress is selling out.
Anyway, am I hopelessly out of touch, wanting a T-shirt dress? Have these dresses been relegated only to be beach coverups these days?

It looks comfy to me, I'd wear it!
I'm no fashion princess (as you know), but I've seen women wearing these, and they look so comfortable, so I say go for it.
I very nearly bought something like this at Target today, although it was specifically for the purpose of a swimsuit cover-up.
It's not a t shirt dress, but it's close, and it's on sale! check it out-

I'm not sure what the status of the t-shirt dress is. I'm not sure if I could pull one off. I do love the idea of being cool and comfortable through the summer months.
They look incredibly appealing. My only concern is the cling factor. (Certain parts of my body invite clinging, sadly.)
Ooooh ... if that dress was on a rack, I'd nab it!
I LOVE tee shirt dresses, but need them a bit longer, too. I remember getting some back when NY & Co was "Lerner NY" ... anyone remember that or am I really old?

looks cummmmmfy :)
definitely looks comfy!
A t-shirt dress, what's not to love. Soft, cool and requires no ironing. I think I've seen them sold at Lands' End.
Hmmm I wonder if it would be difficult to sew a t-shirt dress .....
i puffy heart t-shirt dresses :)
I say beach cover-up. You'd have to be pretty special to pull off this I think ( think: Heidi Klum )
Me, i'm short with boobs and cankles.
I quite like my figure, but something like this ALWAYS looks HIDEOUS on me.
Pass.
