First off before we get to the post — this dress is on sale right under $100! Just thought I’d get that out of the way 😉

Is it just me or has Madewell felt like it wasn’t for us for the last few seasons? If it’s just me, I get it. I could find somethings I really liked there but the majority of the items just didn’t suit me or my current taste. Everything felt like a reach to Gen Z and while I was sad to lose a staple brand, I thought okay maybe this is just getting older? So while I’ll always love Madewell I just started looking at it less and less.

But you guys…Madewell might be back. I don’t want to overstep here but I think they may be returning to us millennials. Now there are still some things I probably wouldn’t touch, but I could fill up a cart I couldn’t afford REAL FAST and it has been a minute since I’ve spent loads of imaginary money at Madewell. Case in point, this dress. I LOVE this dress. It feels like old Madewell in the best way. The fabric is high quality and the fit is so nice (runs big though!) I love the smocking and the puff sleeves — with just *enough* puff. It’s on sale right now at Madewell! 

Here are some of my other favorite pieces from Madewell right now!
