A great investment for summer is a good maxi dress. They work with any body type and can be both ethereal and edgy. They tend to be loose, flowy and comfortable. But the best thing about them is that they are the easiest thing to wear. Once you’ve got a maxi dress that you like hanging in your closet, you will never have a day when you have nothing to wear. It does not actually require thought or further styling to look good. You just throw it on and you’re good to go.
This is pretty much what you see in the look above, except that I added a simple rose gold bracelet to complement the warm colors in the tropical print.
Thank you for reading. Be kind. Be you.

July 13, 2018 at 10:51 amI love maxi dresses, and I think they flatter everyone, but the problem I have is that they tend to be a little long, and I don’t want to cut them in case I want to wear them with a little heel, but then when I want to wear them with sneakers or something without heel they are too long on me. Story of my life hahaha

July 17, 2018 at 3:03 amAh, this is a common dilemma 🙂 Maybe have a few that you cut and see how you feel afterwards…

July 13, 2018 at 10:11 pmMaxi Dressses are my jam!! They are SO comfortable and I love wearing them for airplane travel, because you look dressed up, but are actually wearing the equivalent of a nightgown lol. And I usually just throw on my trusty denim jacket and good to go! Love your style!

July 17, 2018 at 6:51 amI am so with you! Every word! The thing about maxi dresses is that they are not to thick in fabric and fabric is the most concerning part for me in picking clothes. Plus, you can also wear them for casual outings which I love!
Cheers! xx
