10th Commandment: January 25

Jan 25, 2011

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. 

Endless Lengths Dress (Anthropologie, $138)

Look for Less

    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.

The Find: A Striped Tee

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.
