4 fresh ways to wear a maxi dress

Check these out, too...

  • 6 handbags every girl should own
  • Exactly what to wear to your summer job interview
Need the perfect summer outfit? Look no further! Maxi dresses are quintessentially summer: They’re fun, easy, and totally versatile. Plus, there’s a million ways you can style them. Here are four of our favorite looks to rock your maxi.

 

As a beach coverup: A loose, comfy, breezy maxi dress is perfect for the beach. If you feel like stepping out of the sun for a while, just throw one on over your swimsuit. It doesn’t have to match perfectly—a little clashing can be cute!

 

We love: Forever 21 Tie-Dye Maxi Dress, $30, forever21.com
 


Under a cropped tee: Throwing on a cropped T-shirt over your favorite maxi is a cool and easy way to create a whole new outfit. It will fool everyone into thinking you’re wearing a super cute new skirt. Shhh--we’ll keep your fashionable secret!

 

We love: Olsenboye Maxi Dress, $30, jcpenney.com
 

Forever 21 Crop Slub Tee in Ivory, $11, forever21.com
 
 

With sandals and a beaded necklace: This super summery look is tops for any occasion. A solid, brightly colored maxi can be paired with equally bright sandals for a bold look. Add a beaded necklace for some extra bling.

 

We love: Mossimo Supply Co. Juniors Maxi Dress in Blue Delta, $20, target.com
 

Bamboo Sloane 08 Red Multi Buckle Bash Thong Sandals, $15 (on sale!), lulus.com
 

Forever 21 Layered Beaded Necklace, $7, forever21.com
 

Knotted up: Knotting your maxi where it hits your knee is an awesome way to freshen up your look. A simple cotton or jersey maxi is perfect for achieving this look. And there’s a bonus: you don’t have to worry about your hem dragging on the ground!

 

We love: GoJane Striped Maxi Dress in Rustblack, $37, gojane.com
 

And here’s how ya do it!
