To the Max

It is once again a dark, rainy day here in my part of the country.  I have yet to wear anything that resembles a spring outfit but rather still wearing coats, boots and scarves.  To make up for this shortcoming I have been doing plenty of spring/summer shopping!  One thing on my list is the versatile maxi dress.  I have my favorite from last season but I do want to invest in a couple more.  Here are 8 great options (not all in my price range but still note worthy!)


To the Max


1.  Topshop  $110
2.  Delias  $50
3.  Delias  $50
4.  Net-a-porter.com  $130
5.  American Eagle  $35
6.  Topshop  $46
7.  Missoni  $895
8.  Haute Hippie  $358

    @Lily, you totally could! Wear a wedge heel and it would look so cute!

    Ahh, if only spring would get that it needs to be warmer. I wore a brown leather bomber jacket & wool scarf today. I rocked it with boots. Sigh.

    Some gorgeous dresses you've picked.
    Maxi's are great for summer and so comfortable too!
    Hope the weather picks up so you can get to wear your new purchases.

    I really like #6. It's like a summer pond--the blue is so pretty. I also love the Missoni and the Haute Hippie--although I'm so frugal I'd never spend that. Maybe one day I'll be a splurger!
