You KNOW I LOVE maxi dresses!  And this RED maxi is perfect for my cousin’s upcoming wedding reception.  Did you know RED symbolizes good luck and fortune for the Chinese culture!  That’s why we give RED envelopes during Chinese New Year and other special occasions.  Anyhow, I wore it around town to get some errands done and meet up with some friends.  Maxi dresses are so EASY because you only have to add accessories and go!  Neutral accessories {like white, leopard print, camel} let the RED stand out.  Or pair it with complimentary colors {like turquoise} for a color play.

The Style Rx:  Maxi dresses are great when you’re running late or need something easy but want to look polished.  Add some jewelry and your fave sandals/wedges and you are good to go!  Plus, they are nice and breezy which is perfect for summer.

BTW, French Connection has 25% off all dresses using code S14DRESS so you can get this one on sale right now!!  Hope y’all are having a fabulous week! xx
