The Must-Have Summer Staple: Maxi Dresses (Dressing for Less)

Bonjour, dear readers, today I will be addressing maxi dresses. What is a maxi dress? According to Wikipedia (yes, they have invalid sources, but they can be right half the time!) a maxi dress is:

A floor or ankle length informal dress. Maxi dresses are formfitting at the top and loose flowing at the bottom, cut to flow over the body. They are usually made out of cotton or polyester and come in a variety of necklines, colors and patterns.

They are so gorgeous! They are mainly used to create a boho look, but can definitely create a different vibe if used right. See how after the jump.

How to Get the Perfect Summer Skin

Hello, readers! Here in Washington, this last week has just been a burst of sunshine, temperatures in the low 80s and upper 70s, which meant skirts and shorts breaking out everywhere. And hey, here in Washington, our normal temperature is in the mid 50s. It was a good week for us all. Anyways, it reminded me of summer, where our average temperature (if we're lucky) is high 60s-low 70s.

The legs are exposed, and you see the pale shoulders and midriff peek out. But, do you really want pasty skin showing? Dull and pale does not remind me of summer, it reminds be of the dead winter. So, I'm going to show you how to achieve the beautiful healthy, glowing skin you've always wanted without going to the tanning salon. Who goes to those things? They are so bad for you.

ANYWAY before you break out your fluffy brushes and favorite bronzer, I want you to consider my words of advice.
