A Floral Fancy

One of the many things I love about being on the taller side is that I can wear maxi dresses, more specifically I can wear them without the need for skyscraper heels to keep it off the ground. Going arse over elbow is a high enough risk for me in any long clothing without the need for added obstacles!
I recently added THE most beautiful dress to my maxi collection, the kind of dress that just instantly makes you feel a bit like a princess. I admit I don’t have much occasion to wear it, but I’m thinking of just throwing caution to the wind and rocking it for doing the weekly shop. Some things are just too pretty to save for a special event or a holiday.

Isn’t it stunning? I’m not usually one to go for something so frilly and flouncy but on this dress it called out to me. Coupled with the gorgeous pale pink and floral material and the shoulder exposing details I just couldn’t resist.

Are you a fan of maxi dresses? Where would you wear this beauty?

  1. It’s beautiful, Laura! I love maxi dresses too, they are so comfy but make it look as if you made a massive effort. 🙂

    The floral dress is so so beautiful. I thought my homecoming dresses are the best in the world, but I knew I was wrong.

    You look so beautiful! I don’t know why, but I always seem to lack the confidence to wear maxi dresses (even though they cover everything?) but this is a stunning dress xx

    Woweeee! You look amazeballs! I so wish I was taller – I mean, I’m not exactly short at just under 5’6 but I was holding out for a 5’8 win haha! xx

  5. So gorgeous on you. I agree with getting the use out of items like this. I am always overdressed for everyday tasks like shopping but it’s worth it.

  6. This is so stunning on you!

  7. You should definitely wear this in your daily life! It’s absolutely stunning on you, far too gorgeous to save for special occasions and therefore never wear xx

  8. I’m so jealous, I can’t pull of maxi dresses at all as I’m so short! This looks great on you!

  9. On the hanger you might have thought the ruffles on this are too much but this is fab! You look gorgeous and the shape really suits you. Beth x
