Summer Time Maxi Dresses

 

Whether you choose eye-catching prints or solid colours, pair it with a long necklace or chunky bracelets, top it with a massive sun hat or oversized sunglasses, give it some lift with a wedge heel or keep it down to earth with some strappy gladiator flats, your maxi dress will always look gorgeous. The elegant femininity of the maxi dress is what attracts so many women to it: it makes you feel comfortable, free and sexy¿ all at the same time. 

 

Added bonus? It covers up pretty much any part of you that you just don¿t feel like exposing. A maxi dress will conceal every thigh lump and tummy bump. Add a cardigan if you want to cover flabby arms or just to keep warm. However, don¿t button it up. Instead, let the hanging line of the cardigan compliment the silhouette line of the dress. 

 

This year¿s summer fashion trends lean towards feminine and romantic styles and colours, with pastels, floral patterns and ruffles making the biggest impact. Your maxi dress can incorporate all of these trends. Or try to find a simple maxi dress with classic lines and solid colours that expresses timeless style, then keep it and wear it forever. 

 

One golden rule to remember when picking and wearing a maxi dress is to avoid looking like a tent. In order to do this, choose a maxi that cinches at the waist or under the breast. You can use a waist belt to create this silhouette, or simply find an empire cut dress. Remember, the dress is the statement piece, so don¿t over-do it. The beauty of the maxi dress lies in the fact that it offers high impact eye candy for very little effort so let it be the center piece of your outfit.
