There are many things that I love about maxi dresses.  They’re super comfortable, they offer a little extra coverage, and most of all, they’re extremely versatile.  This  short-sleeved cotton maxi is great on its own or layered under a sleek blazer, but with the autumn chill in the air, throwing a sweater over top has been my favorite pairing.  Especially if it has some sparkle.
