Maxi Fever

Maxi dresses are everywhere right now, and I can't say that I am opposed. 
I am 5'3" and I never thought I would be able to pull of the maxi dress look, but after seeing how good they look on so many other people, I was itching to give it a try. After a trip to the mall with my intentions set on buying a maxi dress, I walked away with two from H&M. Right now, I am really drawn to the solid colored ones because they are easy to wear, but I can see myself falling in love with a pretty patterned one too. 

Yesterday I decided to take my maxi dress out for a spin, and here is how I wore it.
Outfit: Maxi dress - H&M; Cropped top - H&M; Belt - AE; Necklace - Forever21; Turquoise beaded bracelets - Forever21; Bangles - topshop

It was the perfect day to wear this dress. Maxi dresses feel so nice and flowy, your legs will thank you for it. 
In short, I think I am in love with wearing them, pairing them with different things, and seeing what comes out. I will definitely go back for more!

  14. @lipglossandletdown - I got lucky with this one, it was the perfect length once I tucked it into my belt! I know what you mean though, finding a good length is pretty hard.

  18. @MaviDeniz - haha you're so funny! Yea, I love wearing maxi dresses with a cropped top or like a cardigan so it's less "in your face" maxi dress.
