The maxi dress is back and hopefully here to stay! It is defiantly a must have in your wardrobe, not only for summer but for glamourous nights out and even weddings!. The dress is available in several different styles and sizes. All women can pull off a maxi dress, you just need to know how to wear it. Here are some tips on how to wear your maxi dress.
Perhaps when we imagine the classic maxi dress we picture a floral or batik pattern dress from the seventies connected to the hippie movement. Well, the dress has developed since. If your maxi dress is of that similar seventies fabric, accessorise with big jewellery and lots of it! Wooden necklaces and bracelets, large earrings and hair bands or headscarves go well with a maxi dress. Wear a pair of flat sandals to add to that laid back look.
There is a variety of different styles of maxi dresses. Choose one with big floral or other colourful patterns for the beach, it will turn many heads. If you are buying your first ever maxi dress and feeling a bit insecure, buy a one colour design in, for instance, black or purple. You will be able to wear this in everyday use, dinners out and nights out, shifting between flats and heels, and jewellery. Heads up girls, be careful when wearing a maxi dress on a night out on the town, so you do not trip when dancing!
Do not avoid these beautiful dresses if you do not classify as a six foot tall model, they come different lengths and sizes. Nicole Ritchie and Eva Longoria are two maxi dress queens who do not let their height stop them.
The online department store, very.co.uk, offers a large selection of maxi dresses in different styles. They also sell different brands of shoes and fashionable jewellery which you can use to accessorise with.

I don’t know if it’s because of the recent bout of childhood nostalgia I’ve been experiencing seeing all the cute little kids waiting for their school bus in front of my apartments with their little uniforms and school supplies or just because there are a lot of fabulous fall worthy vintage looking backpacks out there, but I want a backpack! One of the vintage and rustic looking backpacks above would do just fine!
