I've passed on the maxi trend. I love the dresses themselves, but cannot help but feel I'm walking about in a very pretty nightie. I have tried hi/low hems, and I purchased this skirt -- which is actually also wearable (If I were18) as strapless dress.
1. The first look is the best I think. The jacket adds the "structured" element that I think is essential to flattery for me. I like it like this. I see this as a "Farmer's Market/Art Fair ensemble. Of course, I run warm, so I wouldn't dress like this past the low 60's.
2. Um. Do I look like I'm getting ready to bellydance? I actually think the striped band would look better if I was facing the camera directly, but it still seems a little costumey without the jacket. And I feel like I look a little "blobby."
3. Is this better, with the untucked bottom.
I do think there's a bit of a retro look in this skirt, particularly with the flat sandals, but I'm not sure I'm pulling this off well. Should I demote it to loungewear?
