Today's Everyday Fashion: Casual Stripe Dress

Packing for a trip is a bit like solving a puzzle. I usually start with the shoes and jackets I'd like to take first, since those are bulkier and take the most space and weight. This stripe dress made the cut because it pairs so well with those things I'm already planning to bring (the hat, necklace and loafers, for example, are a repeat from yesterday's outfit post - they will already be in my suitcase!). I also like that this dress works for two different types of weather, and it can be worn outside for sightseeing in the wind (the top layer is loose, but the two bottom layers are secure). It's a no-brainer for our trip to Europe!

I love this dress featured in a Bluefly email a couple weeks ago! I haven't been able to figure out the brand though - Bluefly customer service didn't know. Do you by chance know who the designer?
