Long shirts can be dress-like. Enter shirt dresses. They combine the comfort of a shirt with the draping long lengths of a dress. Most shirt dresses are often not as feminine or as chic as any regular fitted dress. A lot of shirt dresses are mostly casual. So they can be a good dress option for those who don't have such a wonderful body to wear chic dresses. They can also be good for those who simply can't wear the most feminine or girly of dresses. This blog post highlights on shirt dresses.
I've had a tough time choosing between "shirt dress" and "shirtdress." So this post is about "shirt dresses." I wanted to find the better term to get the best possible search results. You still get the idea here though, right? At least I hope...

Here is a shirt dress to set the mood (hover over each image to learn the name of each item in this section):
^ from: www.amazon.com - Here is a button-down shirt dress. Most shirt dresses are feminine while not being overly feminine.
Most shirt dresses aren't ultra-feminine in appearance. They are primarily and usually just long shirts with a dress-like feel. Certain figures who can't take the curve-happy styles of more glamourous or girly dresses may find something to love with a shirt dress. These shirt dresses can simply just be very long shirts for petites. In my research of this topic, I saw a number of topics in regards to shirt dresses being stylish mostly for curvy body types. They may also be a stylish dress option for pregnant females.
Don't get me wrong in all of this- shirt dresses can be very stylish and fashionable. Just that not many of them have that sort of chic appeal as, say... a sundress, an A-Line/skater dress, a shift dress, a body-con or bandage dress, or anything like that. Some shirt dresses are stylish enough to be taken from day into night. Most, if not all shirt dresses are very much modest.
Styling shirt dresses really depend on your sense of style. Most fashionistas tend to pair them with leggings and tights especially in colder weather. Cold weather with shirt dresses usually calls for leggings or tights with some knee-high boots. Some shirt dresses can be hot to wear with some wedge footwear or some high-heel footwear. To provide a charming silhouette, shirt dresses are often times worn with belts across the waist.

I neither love nor loathe the Ash sneakers. I'm not much of a sneakerhead, but if I were to wear sneakers, I think these wouldn't be a bad pair to choose.

Shirt dresses can be nice. The button front ones are a great wear-to-work option, but could be very sexy for a night out with a strategically unbuttoned button or two. T-shirt dresses are nice for an easy casual look. Nice post. :-)
