Lately I’ve found myself wanting to dress up more. I don’t know if this is the 2020 leaving my body or if style in general is changing, but I’m very interested in this style swerve for me. Starting with this pretty dress from Mango. We are still hot over here in Texas so this is a nice transition piece for fall, as I can still feel seasonally appropriate but sweaty. That’s my key aesthetic right now; autumn but make it sweaty.
I’ve dabbled in Mango over the years and I have to say they’ve fixed their sizing as of late. Before (when I was this same size) I would exclusively be a size large / 10 and sometimes it would still be tight. But lately with most of my purchases I’ve been a solid medium. This dress I erred on the side of tight so I bought the 10 but it’s a bit generous overall. I like the size of this for my chest but overall it does run true to size for a 10. Again, use your own discretion but I feel like their sizing is running a bit more generous than it used to.
You can find this pretty dress under $100!
(It’s not sheer per se but it does need a slip for comfort as it’s a bit thinner just FYI.)
