Maybe your legs just aren’t having a good day or maybe your cute little sheath dress isn’t very office-appropriate. Either way, this new trend is going to come in like a chilled mimosa on a sultry afternoon: Dresses over pants are a thing, and your trusty jeans can now accompany you everywhere; praise be.
