Agree it’s nice to see how a skort (or anything) actually fits and looks on you. Some things look great until worn while others look so-so but fabulous on!
I ordered this dress. They are running a 30% off sale over the holiday weekend.

I have a few of these dresses. They are nice for traveling as they are lightweight and don’t wrinkle. I find them feminine but not fussy. The fabric is thin. I like them for casual outings/lunching/church. Not that I have done any of those things lately! But, I wanted to “shop.”
The Ruby is my favorite style. Some of them have too much of an empire waist for my taste.
This is not really a “dressing young” question… but you folks are great online shoppers. Welcoming recommendations…
For summer I am looking to find a sleeveless (or spaghetti strap) short nightgown with POCKET. That would allow me to keep track of my cellphone without the need to put on a pocketed robe.
Note - I’m not looking for a polka dot 1960s moo-moo kind of frock. LOL - I already have such an item, snagged from mom’s giveaway pile.
How about…
Love Hanro. Can’t go wrong with it:
Ooohhh:
I am tempted to get it for wearing around the house in the summer.
Would something like this work? https://www.anthropologie.com/shop/cloth-stone-mia-tunic?category=loungewear&color=004&type=STANDARD&quantity=1 or are you thinking along these lines? https://www.macys.com/shop/product/alfani-ultra-soft-scoop-neck-chemise-nightgown-created-for-macys?ID=8216359
@Hoggirl I love the Ruby dress! Thanks for the sale heads-up. I’ve just ordered “Made in the Shade” for myself.
@figgery - have you ordered from them before? I hope you like your dress if you have not! I liked the print you chose as well! Mine has already shipped. Their customer service is great.
I also like the “Audrey” style.
Thanks all for the nightgown ideas! So far I like the Macy’s link from @Singersmom07 … but the helpful links got me looking at a few possiblities.
I feel like a thief - I just ordered that dress from Macy’s in gray. I get x small but it looks a little short so I got the small size
Thanks @Singersmom07 for your recommendation and @colorado_mom for asking the question.
I like that Donna Karan black and white nightgown, but I’m a size medium and I’m trying to stay away from black. (My entire wardrobe skewed black for awhile, and as I get older I find I don’t look so good in black).
But, I have been looking for a nice shorts set or two for sleeping/lounging. I may try a nightgown instead, especially if I can find one with pockets.
Why do you need pockets for nightgown ?

I posted it in the random question thread, but in case it was this thread where the discussion occurred, Eddie Bauer has several options in 5 inch shorts, and they are 50% off this weekend.
I especially need pocket in nightgown for cellphone. (I need it for work/offshift “pager”… but also I loose it if I set it down. ) I’ve also found that a pocket is also handy for tissues and little things I need to bring upstairs/downstairs. The nightgown does not have to be stylish, but the shoppers here have found some nice ones
For some reason I thought nightgown is what you wear to sleep. Never mind me. Thanks everyone
Well, a nightgown is what some women wear to sleep in. However, a person might put it on for a while before actually getting into bed to sleep and have it on for a while after waking up, all times they might want their cell phone handy. Doesn’t mean they sleep with the cell!
Thanks all. I made my order. Just wanted to point out that Macy’s is offering free shipping (I think until 5/31?) for orders over $25. Of course that meant I needed to add something else to my order too
Sooooo what is the warm weather equivalent of yoga pants/leggings for WFH? :).
Lululemon Align pants come in crop and bike short lengths.
The Align crops or shorts with one of my NuuMuu dresses over them. (or- if I’m honest, running shorts and a t-shirt)
