Did you know that one of this summer´s essentials are easy breezy dresses? In that post I featured hi-low hem, drop-waist and pleated dresses. But there´s another style of dress that you can´t afford not to have for warm weathers. It´s the cozy, chic maxi dress!
You may know that you have a well-toned figure but that doesn´t mean your clothes always have to fit. Or you may have some unwanted curves brought by those series of backyard barbecue parties which you want to hide. Either way, a loose fitting floor length maxi dress is just perfect for you. It covers the unwanted, it makes your movement easy and comfortable, and it makes you look tall. Here are six awesome maxis for you to consider.
