The New $100 Madewell Dress I'm Wearing With Sneakers 24/7

The calendar has finally answered your prayers: Memorial Day, the unofficial start of summer, is here. Along with summer Fridays at work, BBQs, and pool days, there's one thing I'm looking forward to most this season: busting out all my favorite sundresses—and now there's one in particular that I have my eye on.

While perusing Net-a-Porter's new arrivals section, I was definitely tempted by some of the stunning designer pieces, but when I landed on a super-cute Madewell dress, I knew I had to have it. (Who can spend four figures on a dress you're inevitably going to sweat in, anyway?) Ringing in at $100, the Madewell Gingham Cotton-Blend Mini Dress piqued my interested because of the tie straps, the baby blue color, and the easy-to-wear A-line shape. What more could you ask for in a dress, really? I'll be wearing it with white sneakers for the foreseeable future. Scroll down to shop it, as well as other Madewell finds I think you'll love.

Erin got her start as aBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
