I'm not a dress/skirt person, but just kept looking at this. When I was in the store I had to try it on and then absolutely had to buy it. I actually have hiked in it, it's breathable, just stretchy enough and short enough where I was very unaware I was wearing a dress other than the comfort. Pockets are great (definitely the selling point), fit my iphone just fine and snap shut. One thing I hadn't thought of is how convenient dresses are for lake hikes--I jumped in the lake and then could change into dry undies really easily under the dress (genius!). I like the way it looks like different styles of shoes too--I think will be a go-to all summer/fall :D.
I like the XS fit of my Deso pullover and shorts, and the XS tees are quite big on me, but for this dress the Small fit more comfortably around my butt and underarms. I'm 5'3", about 115 lbs, small bust, pretty athletic/muscled around the butt and underarms though (will typically wear a XS or S shirts and 0/24 pants).
