Hi everyone!

Summer is officially here and that means it's time to finally put away the sweaters! Today's post is all about what key essential piece you should have in your wardrobe for summer. Besides a great hat and flats, a summer must have is the maxi dress. By the way, these 3 pieces are amazing investment pieces because they can be paired with almost any look and for most occasions.

Regarding floor length maxi dresses,  they are so versatile and can be worn for almost any occasion. For instance, take this current look - it can be worn for any day event when paired with a great hat and sandals. For night, all you have to do is remove the hat and then switch out the flats for a pair of espadrilles or heeled sandals.

Maxi dresses are also pretty forgiving and are perfect for any body type. When purchasing a maxi dress for you, remember that if you're petite, you should choose v-neck styles because they will help elongate your body. If you don't want your figure to get lost in the dress, try adding a belt or choosing a version with a draw-string because it will help define your waist.

As always, thanks for reading!

XOXO,
