Spring Maxi



     I love wearing a mix and match of winter and summer clothes for Spring - like a summer dress or shorts, with boots, or a sweater paired with a cutesy skirt. I also carry along a scarf just in case it becomes chilly in the evening. This year I was walking around the mall wondering what I could do to change it up a bit. I almost walked past this dress without trying it on. I usually skip past the maxi dresses as they tend to made me look very short and frumpy. But this Jennifer Lopez dress kept calling out to me. Besides I never could resist a flowery print. So I tried it on and fell instantly in love. Its long length makes it ideal for the spring season when the days are sunny but not too cold.







Since the dress is so beautiful with such bold colors, I kept the accessories very simple - some drop earrings and bracelets completed the look. I added a white cotton jacket as the weather was cooler than usual for this time of the year.
