Perfect Summer Maxi Dress #1

Monday, June 30, 2014

To celebrate the arrival of the sun I decided to treat myself to a few new maxi dresses. I wanted something loose fitting but having had no luck in my local charity shops, I went online and found two maxi shirt dresses.

This is the first of them, worn on a hot, hot day hanging out with Tink in the garden. Boohoo's Stylefix magazine has this pegged as 'the must-have festival dress' which made me laugh - the closest this will get to a festival is being worn while watching the Glastonbury coverage this weekend.


I'm going to be wearing this dress a lot. Talk about easy to wear, it's literally a case of add shoes and go, and it's so comfy! It's also just long enough with flats so I won't keep tripping over it.

The photo doesn't capture the pattern on the dress very well, here's a close up from the website. I love the acid brights with the monochrome grey and black.

    I bought a few new maxis, too. They are so easy, like you said! I love the pattern of this one!

      It's really unusual, although it's hard to team with anything else in my wardrobe!
