since then a diverse range of styles have been developed, different
fabrics, colours and designs have appeared and now there is a Maxi dress
to suit all tastes. There’s no excuse now girls.
For the most part, high fashion concepts do not translate well into
real the life! But this particular example has proved eminently
wearable! For the shorter lady, wearing a shoulder-less maxi dresses
help create the illusion of height, and for the taller girls, a sleeved
maxi or the addition of a bolero can show you off wonderfully!
So versatile are they that during daytime they need no accompaniment
and as soon as night arrives a simple extra layer such as a cardigan or
shoulder scarf, and you’re ready to.
By now we’ve all got, or should have! A trusty maxi dress or two in
the wardrobe. They are not just casual you know. They can be the perfect
occasion dresses too. Here are a few simple tricks to rock out that
maxi dresses.
Beltup!
We all know that the simple addition of a belt can transform your
look, with a maxi dress it does even more. By defining the waistline, we
get an instant hourglass figure, grate for those of us who crave some
curves. Also for the more buxom of us it can draw attention to your best
assets!
For the colder days.
A scarf does help us maxi addicts out at the Christmas party, but it
needn’t be just a cold weather thing. At any other time of year, a
lightweight scarf can spice up a tired outfit of any type! One simple
rule applies, solid and patterns go together.
Accessorise!
The simple look of the maxi dress was born to be sassed up with
accessories! Aim for bold beaded necklaces, or an oversized bracelet,
just be sure to avoid the Christmas tree look!

blowing, try a jacket with your maxi dress! Maybe a solid colour ¾
sleeve to keep snug. Check out our store today at http://www.littlethings.ie and browse our collection of maxi dresses. Get that runway look for less, party season is beckoning you know!
