Maxi Dress

The Maxi Dress has made its appearance in past seasons, but it seems to be coming back in a big way.
  I love the 70's inspired silhouette, bold colors, and prints.   
I had to try this hot spring/summer trend.

                       StylExperiment: 

                                                                                        Dress: Forever 21


Dress: H&M
Results: 

The maxi dress is comfortable, yet very feminine.
A great basic to accessorize. It can be dressed down for casual day look or dressed up for a night on the town.

My maxi dresses are simple and lightly accessorized.
I want to experiment further with a maxi dress that has fun patterns, bold colors, and a longer length.
Overall, I would recommend this trend.

Long Dangle Earrings



While turning the pages of my favorite fashion magazines, I noticed an interesting trend in both ad campaigns and editorials. Long dangle earrings seem to popping up everywhere. 

I'm obsessed with accessories, and I could not wait to try out this trend.
