Essie nails in "Urban Jungle" - must-have!
In my seemingly never-ending quest to find a petite friendly maxi dress, I scoured all of my favorite shops. Most were way too long, or they were a neutral color. I wanted something bright and fun, or maybe one with a print. I should have checked Loft sooner because they have such a great variety for petites, most of which can be found in-store rather than online. Well I found this gem during a sale and couldn't be happier with it! It met all of my criteria: the perfect length (no hemming required), a modest slit on the side to flirt it up a bit, and the most gorgeous shade of emerald that looks great now but can also transition easily into Fall. I think it's proof that shorter girls can still get in on the maxi trend without too much effort. I still prefer showing off my legs in a shorter dress, but a simple style like this one can also elongate the body quite nicely.
Are you wearing maxi dresses this Summer?
LOVE this dress and the color is beautiful! I've been loving dresses this Summer (happen to talk about them on the blog today :) Definitely need more in my closet.

Thank you so much Amy Ann :)
DeleteI adore maxi dresses in the summer...I JUST purchased a couple more from Old Navy (oops...but like I've posted about before - I'm always worried they'll go out of fashion so I buy them while I can LOL!!!).
ReplyDeleteThe emerald colour is SOOO gorgeous on you - you really found the perfect dress!
Maxi dresses look stunning on you! I love your ootd posts featuring them and look forward to more! I need more ideas. I think a blazer or denim jacket looks great over long dresses so I'm hoping to find one like yours.
