Grana Review Denim Boyfriend Shirt Dress

Ahh the season for denim is pretty much over so this review will be pretty useless except maybe for those in Australia (hello Sydney-based readers--all 200 or so of you lol).  Oh well better late than never?  So I've tried Grana's Japanese denim jeans, which I liked (but to be honest I don't wear as often as I thought I would because I'm just so obsessed with Frame denim right now plus I've discovered I'm not much a stiff denim kind of gal).  But when Grana came out with a line of Japansese denim dresses, I knew I had to give them a try.

So what did I think of the dress?  Well I loved the denim material of the dress.  It's super soft and lightweight.  And overall the dress is really comfortable and versatile.  But I'm not sure I would wear it very often because this dress is quite short (I ordered this in a small).  I'm 5'4" and though it looks like a suitable length in the pictures, when I raise my arms the dress hem line goes up to my butt.  If I had to reach for something overhead I'm pretty sure I'd be flashing everyone my undies.  

So I guess in the end I would only wear this dress if I knew I wasn't going to be doing anything active (so that rules out daily work).  The dress also comes with it's own denim tie belt (as seen on the model) but I think I would rather wear a waist belt to make the dress a bit more interesting.  Also, if this dress is worn as a transitional piece for autumn, it could look cute with tights or leggings (in which case flashing people becomes a little less of a concern).  And on the plus side, the dress comes with pockets.

Anyway if you're interested in trying the dress for yourself, this link gets you 10% off your first Grana purchase.  And you can find all my other Grana reviews here.
