Style at Any Age
I know you are tired of me talking about maxi-dresses, but they are so comfy and honestly, so affordable. And, this past holiday weekend was the perfect setting to get lots of wear out of this one because it was so stinking hot! Not complaining, just fact. I think this olive green color is so flattering but I don’t see it on a lot of women. You can pair it with navy, black or a neutral sandal and you will look like a million bucks, but you don’t have to spend much for this one on Amazon.

This Grande Primer brushes on your eyelashes creating a white layer that sticks like glue, then you brush your mascara on top of that and I am telling you it is a game changer. If I forget to put it on and go straight to the mascara, I look I am not wearing makeup at all. It makes that much of a difference. I will even take off all my eye makeup and start over if I forget it. I used to wear false eyelashes every day and now I don’t need them. I also use their Grande Lash every night before I go to bed and my lashes are growing for the first time ever. Try both. I promise you will honestly see a difference.

So when I saw these shoes while traveling in Mexico I grabbed them. I can wear them with anything Navy, or with my green maxi dress and they look great.

You can use it for everything: pair it with a jacket, sequin or denim, and it looks like a million bucks. A great jersey maxi dress can easily be hand-washed while you travel and you don’t have to worry about spills because they never show. I wore my maxi dress across Europe with my daughter and it was a dream. I even used it for the plane because I could tuck my feet up under me to sleep (thus the hand-washing). I wore it with a leather jacket when it was chilly during the day and with a wrap for evening. C’est Magnifique!
I like pieces that I can get lots of different uses out of and this is it. Amazon has one just like the one I am wearing in the photo and it even has pockets. It’s perfect and you can’t beat the price. I could sleep in it if I had to. I use my black maxi dress so much that I also have one that is off the shoulder with a ruffle, for hot summer evenings, and I have a sleeveless maxi dress as well. My arms are not for public consumption and I don’t want to frighten young children so that one I wear with a jacket or with another short sleeve t-shirt underneath. Options, options, options.
For the price of these on Amazon, I am thinking that a navy maxi might be just the thing for Summer Holidays like Memorial Day and July Fourth. Or think of a wine red maxi with big silver jewelry, maybe with some turquoise mixed in. You will be the bell of the ball. And I found another style here that is super forgiving so I ordered it in an army green, a color that I find very flattering on almost everyone.
Please tell me about the must-have in your closet.

When I was at the Style Collective first Annual Conference in Raleigh I was surrounded by young women who were all “in the know.” The best tip I got: use Starbucks napkins to blot your face when it’s feeling like an oil slick. So I tried it and guess what? It works. And the cost is right up my alley. Thank you Starbucks!
