According to my posts here, it was 8 months ago that I posted an ISO for my favorite everyday dress, a Land's End shirtdress, when the two that I had had become too large for me. That ISO triggered me to set up an automated daily search on eBay, and eventually I found a navy version, but it turns out the dress runs very large, so it was roomier (and darker) than I wanted.
This weekend, after a long wait, a red one popped up in the size I needed! It arrived today and I am so happy to have found this dress again. It washes and dries beautifully by machine!! No ironing, no line-drying, no fussiness at all. I consider it bulletproof.
Here's a thread from a year ago where I posted a Pinterest copycat featuring my original dress, which was an ugly brown color but my love of the style overcame my distaste for the color. (I also thrifted one in a pinkish-reddish color, which I preferred by far.)
The new dress is definitely RED rather than the pinkish-reddish one I had before. I had no idea it came in so many shades! Seriously, I would've bought them all up when they were still in-store.
Happy dance!
ETA: This absolutely would make it into a 10-item wardrobe, should I ever whittle down my closet!
