If there is one piece of clothing that I can’t live without it is a black maxi dress. And, I definitely can’t travel without it. 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.
