My Perfect Everyday Dress

There are dresses I love but aren't suitable for everyday wear, dresses I love but don't fit perfectly so I end up fussing with them throughout the day, and then there's dresses like this: perfect dresses. It's a classic cut, layered skirt for extra body, and made to my measurements so the fit is dreamy. What I like the most though is just how wearable it is--this is a workhorse dress. The type of piece I can wear almost anywhere--layer it up with knits, tights, and boots for walks through winter, or more delicate flats for a dinner out, etc. Dress it up, dress it down, style it a dozen different ways (how cute would it look with one of my faux collars underneath?). This specific style with the 3/4 length sleeves and full skirt is a new favorite and now I want it in a dozen different colors and patterns. Unfortunately for my wallet, that is a real option since this dress is by Hearts and Found, a vintage inspired, made to measure shop on Etsy. The shop has ready-made dresses available for purchase in a variety of styles, or you can choose any of their dress styles and then select your own fabric, skirt length, and even give them your custom measurements for the perfect fit. I chose the Marianne dress, in the above the knee length, and the green "rad plaid" fabric. This isn't my first time wearing Hearts and Found; I featured a few of their dresses over the summer, but I thought I'd share a bit more behind the shop--and I think I get a bit more addicted to the shop with every new dress. Part of me just wants to completely fill my closet with these sort of custom dresses. I'm already eyeing new styles for spring, plus I need this dress in a variety of other colors...
