I love maxi dresses. The End. No, kidding, just the beginning… because really, aren’t they perfect? Shopping? Maxi dress. Errands? Maxi dress. Lunch with the girls? Maxi dress. Date night? Maxi dress.
The maxi dress I picked out is my absolute favorite from my closet. I bought it last year, and while it’s no longer available, the fashion message stays the same: maxi dresses are perfect for a variety of occasions and settings. I like the tighter fitting, body con style maxi dresses that can be worn with a flat sandal, and even styled casually with the perfect denim jacket.

Your skin looks flawless, what do you use?
I have never even tried on a maxi dress. They showcase women’s bodies wonderfully, but I always think it’ll make me look so short for some reason.

Hey girl- I don’t wear much makeup, except eyes and lips.
FOR SKINCARE:
I use Artistry brand moisturizing facial cleanser and moisturizing lotion. (Sometimes I use an exfoliate scrub, too.) Lately, I’ve put a bit of almond oil, just NOW Foods brand, on my face after using the lotion.
MAKEUP ROUTINE:
When I makeup my eyes, I use Maybelline eyeliner and Urban Decay eyeshadow.
Generally for the lips I use a chapstick or balm on the daily and Revlon or Urban Decay lipstick for a night out.
Hope that helps! Maybe I’ll do a face routine post in the coming weeks. Make up details here: Inside My Makeup Bag
Thank you for the compliments! Time for you to go rock a maxi dress… try pairing one with some wedges, you’ll look hot!
