Maxi Style
Posted on: June 15, 2014
I know some of you are probably not into Maxi dresses are skirts ,yet…
I have to tell you they are everywhere this Season!
They fit my boho style well, so I am very comfortable with them and encourage you to go try some on if you haven’t done so , yet..
Linking up with Visible Monday!
If you are a curvy woman, a maxi skirt can be better…
I wore the sweater over the striped tank and buttoned it once at the waist to create a waist.
Wearing a belt is another option… or sometimes I tie these sweaters at the waist.
I love this embroidered maxi with an aztec print, which I bought from Golden Tote.
The Ann Taylor sweater and Will Smith tank are both thrifted as is the Relic Purse.
Be prepared for about a month of my wearing flats as I broke my little toe on my left foot…
It’s a good thing I bought a few pairs of cute flats this year!!!!
Any time I can add my Mother of Pearl and Onyx ying/yang necklace , I do so, which makes my dear husband happy since he gave it to me for Christmas…
Dear Readers, If you are a curvy woman wanting to try a maxi dress, I highly recommend one with an empire seam and trying it with a vest or a jacket to balance your upper body and hips. I love a jean vest that goes with almost everthing. I recently saw in People Stylewatch magazine, a new idea of wearing an oversized white blouse , unbuttoned and the sleeves rolled up over a maxi. I would try that, but I don’t have an oversized white blouse…I would suggest trying it with a chambray blouse as well..
I hope these ideas help and challenge those on the fence to give it a try!
Do you like maxi dresses or skirts?
Gratitude
I am grateful for a fabulous family filled weekend celebrating my son’s graduation and Father’s Day!
I am grateful that my son is leaving in the morning to go to orientation and sign up for classes at VCU for two days.(it is definitely a real wake up to us all that this is real and he will be going away in about 8 weeks)
I am grateful that my husband enjoyed his weekend and really relaxed, forgettting work for once!
I am grateful that the Summer Style Challenge starts tomorrow!

Boho light! While over-the-top Bohemian eclectic has it’s charms, it’s sometimes fun just to wear a hint, a bit, a soupcon of pattern. Very cool with your striped tank! And your waist shows prettily without the belt. Excellent.

This is one of your prettiest outfits to date! I love the skirt, the colors, the whole look. I hope your toe heals quickly!
