What I’m living in this summer…

Friday 22 June 2012

Ah! The mighty maxi dress and maxi skirt! Aren’t they lovely? They are stylishly on-trend, keep you cool in the hot muggy months (still waiting for them) and they can hide any manner of abdominal-lack-of-exercise-evils quite nicely indeed. It took me some time to get over feeling a little too ‘mumsy’ wearing them but that is easily rectified by a pair of beautiful sandals, badass shades and my personal favourite, a denim jacket. I’ve got to say, this has got to be my favourite summer look.

What’s your favourite summer look?

  4. I love maxi dresses/skirt and jean jacket combos. Will definitely rock those this summer. And I'm also a big fan of cut off jeans with a white tee combined with cute sandals for summer. Happy weekend!

  5. I'm a huge fan of maxis but it is way too damn hot here to wear jackets. I've never tried a maxi skirt before but an inspired now...

  6. Now I wish I had a denim jacket. And a maxi skirt.
    But seriously, I find that denim jackets go well with almost anything and are great for chillier summer nights.

    Sincerely,

  10. I LOVE them! And after seeing them with all the denim jackets, I feel like that's the only way to wear them now! :)

  11. Totally love maxi skirts. I have to say my favorite summer outfit right now are dressy shorts with a cute top. I have a ton of colors so I guess thats why but I also like my sunny dresses :)

  12. I'm only 5 foot 4" so I am really conscious that the maxi makes me look shorter. Maybe it's just me and it's not so at all. But I always felt you had to have some height to carry it off, and not look like you were a dwarf without legs ;-)

  13. Although I do not have enough maxi skirts my collection of maxi dresses is increasing and I love the look and the feel of it and they are ever so comfortable.
