Polka dots!





Happy Summer, Mongers!
 
What better way to start off the sunshine than with playful polka dots? Looks like we’re not the only ones with the idea – check out American Apparel’s version of Coco’s outfit. Twinsies!
Maxi dresses can be a hit or a miss. For our beautifully lean, tall friends they are an easy grab for summertime outfits that go from casual in the day to a little something extra for nighttime.
But for us with hips and a not-so-tall stature, maxi dresses can be daunting. Most are made from a cotton-polyester blend, which can cling to parts we just don’t want clung to. Other times we’re dragging our maxi on the ground like a train.
A few tips for Maxi skirt picking:
-          Look for a length that will just skim the ground when the skirt sits right on your waist (where your tummy creases when you bend to a side)
-          Look for 100% cotton or more cotton blend maxis for less clinging
-          Opt for a maxi skirt with a slit to add more movement and less clinging
And enjoy pairing your maxi skirt with bright tees and tanks, or a casual button-down-made-crop-top by tying the bottom into a knot!
