I’m currently wearing my dress as a nightgown. Quite comfy actually!

For those of you who received the infamous dress…I cut mine into a shirt and it worked lovely today. Haha. It probably won’t last more than a couple of washes but I’m planning on getting some use out of it at least![/QUOTE]
I was thinking about trying to make the dress into a shirt. Did you hem the bottom? I’m not sure the machine I have access to would be able to hem up that type of fabric.
A nightgown is exactly what the dress looks like!

I’m an extremely lazy person and didn’t hem it…just cut along the bottom…which is why I’m sure it’ll unravel after a wash or two. I’m not very crafty Maybe someone else can weigh in.
It definitely works as a nightgown!! Hehe.
Just opened mine and got the crewneck sunshirt as my free gift. I really like it, though a color other than pale pink would have been nice. Still, 2 sunshirts for 30? Can’t beat that!
The Dover Coolblast shirts are amazing! I don’t ever want to ride in a regular shirt in hot temps again.
I got my Kastelcloseouts sun shirt yesterday. I really like it! I also got the dress but it looks dead easy to turn into a 2nd shirt. I’m very happy!
They do work but as someone already mentioned the ones with the lighter breathable mesh under the arms are really nice too. Some shirts are being made with a mesh back as well. Those are almost like cheating in warm weather

Yeah - if we could solve the wet sports bra problem my life would be SO MUCH BETTER. I love being a million degrees and sweating through everything, then my shirt dries in the car, but I have to pop into Target on the way home and my wet sports bra combined with the refrigerated section leaves my teeth chattering and me wanting a warm blanket before I exit the store.
Grrrr…[/QUOTE]
I swear by the Patagonia Barely bra. It’s a flattering, comfortable, and super quick drying/lightweight bra that still offers enough support (I’m a C cup, for reference). It really helps!
The ones I got from HorseLoverZ came in and I wore one on Wednesday when we hiked Tallulah Gorge. 1122 Stairs! Shirt was great. Definitely wicked the moisture away and was never stick. At $5 a shirt, a great bargain! Thanks again for the link/suggestion on those.

The pale pink is not my favorite color either, but it could have been worse you could have gotten a pink dress like me. :lol:

The wet sports bra is the worst! I have yet to find a sports bra that doesn’t have this problem. I looked at the links for the Under Armour sports bras, they look interesting, but they don’t have adjustable straps.
Got mine yesterday from Kastel in a royal blue after I came over from the tank top wearing dark side earlier this summer led by a really cheap eBay Kastel I fell in love with. Not cooler per se, just not hotter than bare arms. I got a free crew thrown in (pale pink too). Again, for $30 I’ve loving Kastel.
