The shirt dress is as versatile as it is comfy! Pair it with our Oversized Lace-Up Sweater for a cozy Fall #OOTD.

Blogger Mel Denisse took a break from her busy NYFW schedule to relax in her favorite Aerie layers.

“This week has been a craze during fashion week and it was challenging to find moments to lay low. During the afternoon I got to capture some of my latest favorites from Aerie. I layered the chambray shirt dress with their oversized sweater on an off day for a simple, every day look. What I love are the minimal details like the gold rings with the criss-cross ties woven in to give it a little pop. I also tied the dress in a knot on the bottom to create some different lengths throughout the bottom.”

“If you didn’t already know, what I love is that Aerie has had several campaigns highlighting different aspects of natural beauty. I’ve partnered with them in the past for their untouched ads using models of all sizes here. Now, it’s great to enter the Fall season in partnership with their new campaign using no makeup. Going from layering the face to layering clothing could be a refreshing transition this season :)”
