Wearing a maxi dress is like wearing your pj’s all day and who doesn’t like wearing their pj’s all day? That makes us ALL happy. It’s the most comfortable thing to wear. You just slip this baby on and you’re good to go.
I’ve had this maxi for a couple years now and its style keeps holding on. I’ve taken it with me on almost every vacation because it’s so easy to pack and I know I will wear it. I love how the straps are adjustable. The length is perfect for me if I want to wear flats. I’m 5 feet 7.5 inches for reference. The gathering at the waist gives you a nice shape as well.

Accessories
The jewelry I picked out for this maxi dress is basic. Some gold hoops and a gold bar necklace. The gold really pops with this color blue. I also wore my two toned Michael Kors watch. Look how the blue really stands out on the watch face. It’s not even the same shade, yet they compliment each other well. I have on my blue toned Pura Vida bracelets, which I wear everywhere.
My Kate Spade aviators are a couple years old, but I still love them and wear them all the time. For the new style, click the shop the post below.
Sandals
I chose my Sam Edelman gold toned flip flop sandals for today’s outfit. They are so comfortable and literally go with everything. It’s hard to find a comfortable flip flop that has a little more style to it (not rubber). I am hoping they go on sale at the end of the summer so I can buy more colors. Even if they don’t, at $30 a pop, that’s not a bad price to pay for these sandals.
I’ve done a lot of things in this dress. Danced on the beach, toured Rome, and enjoyed a five course meal in the caribbean. When the color of this dress fades, my memories will still be as colorful as ever. It’s funny how clothes can bring you back to those moments. This blue dress did everything BUT make me blue. It brought me a lot of happy times. Maybe it wasn’t the dress, but wearing something this great sure helped.
