Marvelous Maxi's

Hi everyone, sorry for the long post between blogs but I had a big project I was working on and it was taking up all my time!!

This week I just have to talk about maxi dresses and skirts. Im not sure how you feel about them but I adore maxi everything. They can be chic yet comfortable, trendy yet relaxed, sexy yet demure..... LOVE. Maxi skirts and dresses are in all the stores right now, from solids to fun patterns and soft, layered fabrics. 

My friend came to visit last week and we went a little maxi crazy, I bought a new mint green maxi skirt (which I'm sure will show up on here next week) and she bought a new coral one. I now (shamefully) own 5 maxi skirts and 4 maxi dresses, which I feel is still an acceptable amount? I have worn them for all different occasions... high waisted with a bra crop top for a night out, with sandals and a tucked in tank for the beach club, with a cover up and flashy jewels for a business meeting (a fashion business meeting of course, I don't want lawyers and bankers getting fired for showing up in their maxis:) 

Check out some of my current favs I have found around town.... 

These first two are from asos.com, which FYI has soooo many to choose from and I love how they give you a full model photo so you can get ideas of how to wear them....





The next two are from Bershka which is where I have bought several of mine. They fit well, they are comfy, and their a bargain!!



                                             
     This gorge dress is from Zara and could easily work with wedges for a more evening look.




Here are some maxi loving celebs, beautiful Blake, Jessica Alba (who wore maxis throughout her pregnancy), and the Queen of all Maxi's Rachel Zoe. I just love how Rachel can make any maxi look glamourous with her fun accessories. 






And lastly.... me! In my super soft and comfy maxi dress




Do you like maxi's? how would you wear them?
