Maxi Heaven





Maxi Dress from TheCloset £28
Crotchet Waistcoat from TheCloset £10
Silver Neck-Candy- Thrifted £2.50

I absolutely adore this maxi dress and the fact that I have it in 3 colours is proof of that; emerald green, peachy orange and chocolate brown. The dress fits perfectly. The great thing about this colour blocking maxi is you can wear it all year round. The key to wearing it over and over is to master how to refresh your look with accessories and how to make it fit every purpose. Iv paired this dress with silver accessories and a crotchet waistcoat- remember less is more. 

If you don't already have this staple in your wardrobe, here are some basic tips for buying a maxi dress; Firstly Consider the length- women of any size or height can wear a maxi dress, but tailoring the length is a must. If you find that all dresses are a few inches too long, consider buying the dress for the fit and then taking it in to be shortened or hemmed at home. Secondly Look for a defined waist- as the most flattering dresses are narrowest at the natural waist or consider adding a statement belt. It helps to break up the visual line of a material.
