Maxi It!

The maxi is the it thing right now and I love them! It's so much fun accessorising them. Go with lots of colourful, assorted bangles and/ a simple/statement neckpiece.

Maxis are soo comfy to wear when on holiday too. There are endless styles you can go with - vintage, chic, boho, nautical, rock...

Personally, I'm not too keen on the ditsy or small floral print ones - but I guess if you wear it well, anything can look good! For example, if you are going to go for the ditsy floral print maxi, I suggest going it simple - ignore what I said about the bangles :D. Go with a simple vintage clock necklace, a denim jacket or gilet (another post idea!) and perhaps a pair of wooden wedges.

For an alternative look, go for either a fairly simple/plain or block print maxi and then max out on accessories!
