One of the things I love most about summer is that you can look chic and carefree in an easy going maxi dress. However, there is no such thing as a "just throw this on and go” outfit in the cold. Even if you opt for my winter wardrobe staple—the sweater dress—you still risk getting cold due to the necessity of tights, and even the warmest wool variety isn't particularly toasty. I feel so much warmer in a long dress even when it's cold outside (and fall too for the record).
The benefits of wearing a maxi dress during the colder months are numerous. Since Maxi dresses are loose and flowy, they can be worn with thermal leggings, long underwear, or heavy tights to keep your legs warm without sacrificing style. For a chic layered look, I like to wear a fitted long-sleeve top or turtleneck underneath a summery maxi dress that I plan to repurpose for fall. I really enjoy wearing maxi dresses in the winter because they are so out of the ordinary and because they provide more coverage than other dresses.

This season is all about showcasing your unique sense of style, so feel free to wear your favourite maxi dress to any event. Embrace your inner boho princess in a flowy chiffon pattern embroidered with pretty blossoms. Or glimmer from head to toe in sequins by donning a figure-hugging, floor-length gown. Express yourself through the way you accessorize your maxi dress.

Dressing for the Occasion
A black-tie affair is an ideal opportunity to dress to the nines; wear a floor-length gown if you must. If so, look to the women who wear it best for guidance. Browse this season's red carpet looks and channel your inner Oscar winner with our stunning designs. Follow Kim K's lead and accentuate your curves by wearing a fitted bodice and a fishtail skirt. In contrast, if you look up to Kyle Jenner, you should wear a long, sleeveless dress that is embellished with beads or sequins. Take the chic route to success!

Launch the Celebration
Make sure the girls are waiting for you inside the party before they get going. Have fun and show off your fabulous style in one of these floor-length party dresses. If you want to stand out from the crowd of women wearing minis and midi skirts and dresses, opt for a maxi dress instead. Starlet in gold sequins, diva in red satin, and fantasy in black lace, please. That alluring appearance is sure to attract attention and stimulate desire.
