I usually don’t indulge in Spring attire until the days get longer, but I spotted this dress, and even I forgot that it isn’t March, yet.
This dress might be the most perfect maxi dress ever. It’s jersey, so it’s comfortable and casual. But the cut is a bit more sophisticated than your average maxi dress. This will be the perfect dress to wear on the airplane or to the office during recess.
My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.
Every now and again, I spot a piece on sale and I have to have it. I need it. I cannot live without it. Recently, I spotted a jersey tee at Boden that takes a casual top to the next level, and I just needed to share.
Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
I like that this is a maxi dress with sleeves. Spaghetti straps = ew.
Oh gosh, I think this could age one drastically.
R-
Only if you wear it with closed toed pumps and a cardigan. Instead, try to liven it up with stacked bangles, a metallic sandal and wavy hair.
I saw this on anthro's site this week and fell in luuuuuuuuuuuuve. I would wear this from now until June…and probably beyond.
Ok, this may seem like a ridiculous question, but can you get a maxi dressed hemmed, or does it look bad? I LOVE maxi dresses, but all of them seem to be insanely long and I'd love to be able to wear with flats!
Maxi dresses, and this one in particular, remind me of those Texas FLDS folks:

Is this a body type thing that maxi's look right on some people, but maybe not everyone?
Belle,
I'm 5'3″. Is it even possible for me to wear a maxi dress without it overwhelming me? If so, I could use some tips.
