Yes to the Dress: The Maxi

Hi Readers!
Cold snap got you down? Well I have just the thing to bring cheer to all! Maxi Dresses for everyone! Last year this trend barely scratched the surface. This season these lovely long dresses are back and in full effect. Below are some of my favorites...Enjoy!



First up is the AK Anne Klein Dip Dye Maxi Dress available on nordstrom.com. Click here to get it..I love this style because of the coverage up top!



And for my curvy girls....ta daaaa. Please don't wait to purchase. I have a feeling this dress will sell out! Click here and order expeditiously!!



I absolutely love this Moroccan inspired dress from Arden B! On sale now for $108.


Border prints definitely bring another design element to the plain maxi.

Check out Gypsy 05's organic cotton maxi dress with tye dyed border print here!


Splurge alert!!!

This Jay Godfrey creamcicle maxi dress is oh so fab..And just under $500!!


Now back to reality! This Karen Kane knot front dress is a perfect weekend dress and only $98 at belk.com. I tried this dress on last weekend and fell in love! Beautiful color and it was long enough!




The Essential add on:

*Before you walk out the door in your brand new look please make sure your undercarriage is in tact. Knits automatically cling to our skin and show everything..ughh. One way to smooth out your situation is to invest in a shaper. See my picks below:

Try the Slim Cognito by Spanx here!



Also try Assets Sensational Shaper for only $20 at Target.

You may also need to wear a half slip to act as a barrier between your shaper and dress!..My Grandma would be so proud :-)

Wear NOW: The Ethnic Scarf

Fall weather is officially here! Mild days and cool nights are probable cause to pull out fresh cool weather accessories. Today I want to talk about the ethnic scarf! I think this is a great way to add color and texture to any ensemble.


..Loving this paisley scarf with lurex threading from Urban Outfitters only $28. Get it here!


I found this orange paisley scarf for $68 here but I found a similar one at JC Penny for about $20! I suggest you toot to your local dept store and check out their selection!

Another great source for ethnic scarves is World Market. They have a sparse selection online but the actual store offers a larger selection of scarves and great jewelry too!


Speaking of jewelery..I think it's a must that we own a great pair of filigree earrings to go with our ethnic scarves ;-)

I am absolutely loving these from forever21 and they are only $3.80! Click here to browse their entire collection.


Also note worthy are these rosette filigree earrings at fredflare.com
