To the Max!

My favourite dresses in my wardrobe for this spring and summer 2011/2012 are my maxi's!  Being so adaptable, they can be worn while doing the daily errands on a hot summers day or dressed up, ready to wear for a weekend BBQ get-together.  I also happen to think that a maxi is one of the most flattering dresses for all body shapes.

Take the Witchery blood orange beach dress at left ($69.95 on sale now) and team it with your favourite flip flops and wide brim floppy sun hat (like this yellow Witchery hat for $49.95), and you are ready for a family picnic in the park.  The beautiful Sussan tribal strapless maxi dress in neutral above right ($129.95) is the perfect outfit for a summer nights dinner out with friends - just team with a heel like the Novo Oak heel in beige ($89.95) and chunky bangles up your arm.

For versatility, add the Just Jeans black frill top maxi ($69.95) to your wardrobe and you will be ready to go anywhere!  Wear it to run around, doing your daily errands.  Or accessorise with a bold coloured turban, wedges and kimono - like the Cotton On Evie kimono mentioned in an earlier post - to be ready to go out on the town.

Whichever maxi you choose to add to your collection, it will no doubt be one piece you will wear over and over again this spring and summer.
