I love a good maxi dress, but all of mine are sleeveless. Earlier this summer, I went on the hunt for long-sleeved maxis that could transition into the fall.
I just love the look of a sleek, slinky maxi with long sleeves. You can easily dress it up, or change the look completely by pairing it with flats for a casual, comfy look.
Fitting the bill was this awesome find. I pounced on it and was so happy when it came in, needing no alterations at all (which is awesome for a maxi dress when you are only 5'2".)
The great find is the Lucy Love Maxi Resort Dress in black (also available in white). Definitely a more casual maxi, it has rolled-up sleeves and even a hood on the back! As you can see it's pretty low-cut so I plan to wear mine layered over a camisole, either black or a punchy color.
There are two "best parts" about this find:
One: It is made out of that SUPER soft slinky material ... like the perfect broken-in tshirt.
Two: It is now on sale (of course, after I bought it) for $38 with free shipping here.
The weather is cooling down here in Charlotte which means it's almost time for me to pull it out of the closet. I think with some gold flat sandals and a casual clutch, it would make the perfect girls night out ensemble!
What a fun dress! It will be perfect for fall!

ReplyDeleteJust when I was getting sad to put up my sleeveless maxi dresses for the fall, but you post a long sleeve maxi??!! Genius! I will be on the hunt this fall :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis dress paired would be great for pictures. I'd like to take pictures near a sunflower field before they disappear!
