I usually think maxi dresses are cute on other people, but I've not been too sure of how they would work for me. Earlier this summer I was out shopping with my wife one day and we saw this dress, and she thought it would be perfect for me even if its not exactly a maxi dress, since we had been talking about trying one out. She was so right about the dress, and I love what it does to my figure. Even better, this dress makes me want to dance. Well, I also have to add that wearing a tuxedo makes me want to dance too, but that's not what this post is about ;). I also have a secret to confess: while I have discovered more and more how much I enjoy purses, one reason I pose with them so often is so I have something to do with my hands. I also have to add, the style bloggers I've interacted with are some of the nicest people I've ever talked too! And as usual my awesome wife took the pictures.
I want this dress! Gladiator flats would also be really cute with it. :)
ReplyDeleteHands on hips usually works for me. :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a great dress! I'm scared of anything that length because I'm so short but it's really pretty!
Thanks to both of you! I don't actually own any gladiator flats, the closest thing I own are the black heels in this post. I have serious trouble convincing myself to wear flats, and for me trying stuff on at stores to see how it looks sometimes requires discretion, but I think flats look great on a lot of other people. I'm actually about 6' tall, but there are times I wish I was shorter if you can believe it, but I don't think height matters that much. So go for long, or at least try one on in the dressing room, I think it could look great on you, Melissa!
ReplyDeleteCan I borrow this dress too?! :) It's so pretty! I wish I liked purses, but I don't. But hey that's extra money I have for dresses!

Thanks! I wish I could loan it to you :). I used to not like purses that much, but that's started to change, and they can be fun. I save my extra money for shoes, I have a serious addiction.
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing you rock all of them!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm trying not to repeat them, but I want the weather to cool down so I can break out the fall fashions and the boots. This is a lot of fun, and I've enjoyed sharing with everyone. :)

Thanks! I hope you enjoy the rest of my blog too! :)
ReplyDeletewow i love maxi dresses i have two in my closet but i only dare to wear them during occasions because i am 174cm tall when i wear them ppl give me that weird ' OH look she is so overdress ' kinda look which is pretty awkward
ReplyDeletei wish people in my country could open up their minds when it comes to fashion, cause some ( not all ) people here are very conservative
People here can be close minded too, but the internet is a great place to meet people who can appreciate any sense of style. I'm glad you stopped by!
