TRANSITIONAL MAXI DRESSES
Hi, everyone! I wanted to write a post on transitional maxi dresses and give you a lot of examples, but for some reason, this week has thrown me for a loop (I am linking a few dresses below). Currently, I am more unorganized and scattered than ever, and I really don’t know why. I mentioned that I am working with a life coach, and she is holding me accountable for a couple of things in the next few weeks after listening to how out of control I feel. The first is to get an assistant, so I’m putting it out there that I need someone to help me. Two- is more help around the house. I cannot get laundry, things put up or organized at all! I think this is because I work from home and am spinning my wheels trying to do everything.
Maxi Dresses Are The Perfect Transition Into Fall
Okay, enough of the sob story! I’m going to touch on transitional maxi dresses quickly. If you live in the South, you know how long summer can last. The calendar may say September and October, but the thermometer can still say 85 or 90. It’s tough because we want to wear our fall clothes, but it’s still too darn hot. I found this dress a few weeks back and thought it was perfect for fall (wore it on the Soma trip last week).
This dress screams “Indian Summer” to me for just about any occasion.
Paired with sandals as a casual look or a slight heel for a dressier look, it’s a great dress to take you into fall. You could throw different jackets (jean, leather, or suede) over it to give it a different feel and maybe some different belts, a gold chain belt would look super cool with it. Wearing a maxi dress means not having to have tan legs either! Anthropologie is an excellent source for maxi dresses. I am linking my favorite transitional maxi dresses below.
I have a coffee meeting this morning then meeting with my trainer. Missed a full week of weight training and am feeling like a dropout. I can tell when I haven’t been there. When I saw my doctor yesterday, and she said that I have to keep the weight training up because my body BMI is on the low side. Lord knows I do not want to be one of those ladies that breaks a hip! I have too much to do and am not organized yet! Hope you all have a great day! xx

Love this outfit from top to bottom! You never disappoint. Could you tell me about the beaded bracelets you wear with your watch? I have such a “thing” for bracelets. Also, I’d love to know about the simple gold necklaces you wear. Thanks so much.

What size did you buy in this dress? I was going to order it and get extra small. I am 5’6 and 123 pounds. Do you think extra small or small?

Hi, Beth! Hope you are having a great weekend! I got the xs, but probably could have done the xxs. My advice is when in doubt, order both sizes and return the one that doesn’t work. It is a gorgeous dress! xx

Hey I don’t want to have to return the dress so trying to get the correct size. I am 5’6 and 123. You look thinner than me. Do you think small would be the best bet or extra small if you had to guess according to your size.
