Holly tipped me off that a bunch of eBay sellers are doing a special discount on the maxi-dress through August 8. The dress above is part of the promotion, and you can find other dresses by searching for the label TVMF (“The vintage Maxi Factor”).
Despite hardly ever wearing them, I *love* maxi-dresses. They’re so hippie-glamorous. I feel that they must be worn at home, entertaining, with bare feet. There must be something jazzy playing on the stereo (or coming from your iPod), none of the seating must be a lot more than eighteen inches off the floor, and all the drinks must be at least half ice.
All of which would describe why I hardly ever wear maxi-dresses, because all the above prerequisites are hardly ever met, at least for me. but maybe I must kick back a few of those conditions, so I could snap up dresses like this. this one is COTTON (a lot of those maxi-dresses are synthetics, which I really don’t like) and it’s got such a terrific print! If only it weren’t beige … I can’t really wear beige, unless I want to practice looking naked and/or invisible. but if you had darker skin than mine (I will NOT say the dread word TAN) this would be stunning on you! and look both sophisticated and uncomplicated at once.
And maybe your feet wouldn’t have to be bare … flat colorful sandals would work. No heels, though. Heels with a maxi-dress is trying too Hard.
This stunning maxi is from the eBay seller nomusicnolife and is B38 … and in terrific condition! If you are trying to find the best fancy beach party/casual outdoor wedding-guest dress for this summer, I think this is it.
Make sure you hold one of those froofy parasol-required drinks while wearing it, though. That’s one condition I won’t waive.
