Flattering Jersey Knit Dresses and Tops

What exactly is jersey knit?

That amazing fluid fabric with fabulous drape, stretch and forgiveness. It travels superbly since it won't wrinkle, and as a mom on the go it is perfect for someone like me who would like to look good but needs comfort and washability.

Matte jersey is a durable fabric with a lightweight, almost flimsy look but wears extremely well. It makes for gorgeous flowy tops and dresses that by the way, if you find just the right cut, can hide a multitude of flaws as well.

If you haven't yet, try on a jersey knit dress, top or pants and see how great this fabric is for yourself. You might just find a new style to add to your wardrobe.

Thanks for stopping by and enjoy!

Why jersey knit fabric?

It makes all the difference!

In my pre-children days, when I was young and fashionable, a cute pair of linen pants was no problem. An expensive silk top didn't faze me. But now that's all changed. I must have washable, non-wrinkle-able, and totally wearable clothing. I don't mind paying for something that's worth the price, but it has to wear well.

Jersey knit fabric is the answer! Have you tried those 'travel separates?' They're fabulous. Some brands have a subtle sheen that looks like silk, and they don't wrinkle. They're machine washable. And the flowy drape makes your body look great. If you haven't discovered clothing made out of this incredible material, you've just got to try.

I hate to iron when I'm on vacation.

A silky top and pants set for travel is so practical, and these outfits look great on pretty much every body. I will never travel in jeans again. And I will never again pull out that dang ironing board while I'm on vacation!

Splendid Very Light Jersey Cardi

An extremely comfortable, forgiving style.

This is a fabulous layering piece. Dressed down with jeans and a t-shirt this works wonderfully for running the kids all over town and grocery store trips. But pair it with a silky skirt and silk tank and you've got another great look. That's the thing about jersey separates. Versatile!
