Sucker for a maxi dress

It's summer time already in NC, although the official start of summer is about a month away. You know when it gets hot, clothes get lighter and waistlines slimmer...hopefully anyway.

One staple item in my wardrobe is a maxi dress.  I have a few of them, in various colors and patterns. The avocado green one by Design History on the left is the latest.

I am a for sucker maxi dresses for several reasons. I can wear them in various seasons. I can dress them up and down, depending on the occasion. And men really like maxi dresses on women, as they delicately hit your curves.

Maxi dresses go from casual to darn near couture with the right accessories and proper design. Not to mention the fabric on this one is appropriate for layering or not.

The best thing about maxi dresses, in my opinion, is you can usually find a great deal on them at a discount retail store.  This one retails at 120.00. Bluefly.com had it on sale for 75.99.  Want to know what I paid? Twenty bucks! No joke!
