Dolly and Dotty Julia Wildflower Midi Dress

November 13, 2025

I love the look of a classic tea dress and this one from Dolly and Dotty is just perfect for fall!

Nothing is quite as flattering as this pointed-up waistband with a flared midi length skirt. The pretty floral print has flowers of orange, tan, lavender and blue on a dark green background. It’s just perfect fall and winter. It even has pockets!

I styled the Julia tea dress here with heels for a date night. I felt so pretty and feminine! I will also definitely be wearing this dress to feel comfortable and look polished for a day of teaching. Won’t it be cute with tights and boots? Or even sneakers and a denim jacket?

Check out Dolly and Dotty for other fabulous tea dresses with pretty prints. They also have amazing and really special dresses for the holidays!

This dress was a gift. All opinions are all mine as always.

Want another date night outfit idea? How about this one?

Fun & Fashion,

About the blog: Fashion Should Be Fun is me talking to you, other middle aged women like me who are over 40, but not over fashion.  We still want to look beautiful and stylish.  We still want to have fun with trends.  And we don’t need anyone giving us rules, because we’re all different. We all have our own shapes and bodies, parts we’d like to cover and parts we still don’t mind showing off a bit.  This is a place for me to share my love of fashion with you, style ideas, tips, trends, and inspiration. I know how liking the way we look can translate into confidence and energy. I know we have so much life left to live and so much adventure ahead of us. Let’s show the world you’re never too old to have fun and be fierce!
