COLLECTION OF: Maxi Outfit for Summer

It's +10 degrees C (50 F) here in Vancouver (it feels warmer in the sunshine!) and I'm thinking summer........ I want to try a maxi dress. Now - it's important to note, I'm only 5 feet tall, and I'm not sure that I can pull it off.....but if I can, I'm all over it for this upcoming summer. It just seems so....floaty, fluttery, boho...love it. Anyways, above is ideally how I'd put it together. PS. Don't you love the woodgrain on that cuff?? Below are a few more maxi dresses I also came across that I thought would work for me. Who knows - guess I'll have to brave the terrible lighting and cramped change rooms somewhere to find out.

ETSY ART: SarahJaneStudios

April showers bring May flowers......another beautiful selection of gorgeous Etsy artworks. SarahJaneStudios is a mother of two, whose specialty is Illustrating Childhood. Her works make me reminisce about my own childhood; particularly the snowy quiet of Winter Cheer. This collection of art definitely reveals my tenderness for children :)
