Hello holidays. I can almost smell you. I’ve already started dressing like it’s G&T O’Clock. All day. Every day.
And you know what that means, don’t you? Every single maxi dress I own is on high rotation {with more than the odd kaftan thrown in for good measure!}.
It’s no State Styling You Secret that I love me a maxi dress and that I’ve never met a woman who I couldn’t convince to give one a go either.
Don’t believe me? Head on over and check out this post and then come on back. I wrote it more than a year ago and I still stand by it.
The case for the maxi
Maxi dresses give you permission to wear flats and still feel fabulous.
As soon as you pop one on, you immediately look more dressed up than in a short dress.
It’s one garment. Summer dressing does not get any more simple than that.
Style tips
Keep it streamlined. Too much fabric and someone will throw a couple of guy ropes in your general direction and try to peg your “tent” into position.
Look for styles that show your shape. Petit? A fitting tank style works a treat. On the curvy side, seek out A-line or styles that fall from under your bust.
