The Perfect Shirtdress Exists, and It's Less Than $40 at Old Navy

There's something undeniably classic and understatedly sexy about a shirtdress. Maybe it's the association with the oversize button-up as nightgown imagery that's been burned into my head after watching countless rom-coms, but regardless, I've been wanting one. Finding one that is comfortable but flattering, lightweight but opaque, and long enough but suitable for warm weather can be surprisingly challenging, but I finally found my shirtdress match. Old Navy's Short-Sleeve Shirt Dress ($31, originally $45) checked all of my boxes. The best part? It's currently on sale at Old Navy!

What I Love About Old Navy's Short-Sleeve Shirt Dress

The dress is made from garment-washed cotton, so it's soft and lightweight. The fit is straight cut and relaxed and even has pockets, which always make me happy. The puffed sleeves break up the dress's straight lines and add a touch of whimsy, which helps it to appear less like an oversize shirt. The length is exactly what I've been looking for - it hits just above the knees in the front and is slightly shorter in the back, so I can chase my kids and bend over to pick them up without worrying about it flying up in the wind. On beach and pool days, I can leave even more buttons undone and throw it over a swimsuit as a cute cover-up. It's basic enough that it can be easily dressed up or down, depending on the accessories and shoes I wear it with. I've been wearing it with sandals and mules, but in the fall and winter, I'll pair it with boots and chunky cardigans.

What's Worth Noting About Old Navy's Short-Sleeve Shirt Dress

I'm usually a small at Old Navy, but I sized up to a medium because I didn't want it to be clingy at all. I love how roomy and comfy the fit is. I tried on the white version but found it to be slightly see through. I appreciate how opaque the black is. The only downside to the black color is that it attracts lint, so you'll want to run a lint roller over it before you head out the door.

Who Is Old Navy's Short-Sleeve Shirt Dress Best For?

This dress is perfect for anyone looking for an easy and comfortable option with a relaxed fit. If you prefer a shirtdress with a length that falls between a mini and midi dress, this is it. It's a versatile basic that's especially useful if you're assembling a capsule wardrobe, seeing as it's a chameleon piece that can be dressed up or down.
