"Pajama-inspired dressing is a trend that’s been on our radar for a moment, but fall feels like the perfect time to fully embrace it, especially with our Pajama Shirt Dress. The contrast piping is the sort of detail that takes a versatile wardrobe staple to the next level and really gives it that old-school pajama vibe. The best part about this dress is how versatile it is; you could wear it now with cuffed sleeves and block heels while the weather is warm, style it over turtleneck bodysuit and with tights and boots come colder weather, and even use it as a lightweight jacket over your favorite jeans. It’s dressy enough for the office and will work equally well on the weekend with flats or sneakers. In short, this super-flattering dress is the perfect wear-anywhere piece, which is why we think it’s a must-buy.” — Hillary Kerr and Katherine Power
