Maxis in the Summer

School is finally out and you know what that means! Summer!
One of the most challenging trends to try to work is the Maxi Skirt. Many people can't quite find the proper balance between the causal and elegant look. And here's how to do it.

Basic isn't always basic
maybe stick with two basic colors you can do a solid and then a black or white depending what contrasts better.

Go bohemian
Tie in Earthy tones and topping it off with a jean vest not only keeps you covered from the sun but you look great for an indie rock concert!

Daisies and Stripes
Try this boho outfit by wearing a striped maxi skirt and wearing it with a graphic tee. Similar to this cute outfit keep the tee simple so it looks effortless.

Baby showers

Baby showers are one of the most exciting get togethers a soon-to-be mother could have. And with all the pictures and people there, a pregnant woman normally wonders what to wear.
A mother needs to learn how to wear clothing that compliments their maternal figure and shows their personality, which sometimes is really hard to do. When choosing an outfit a mother shouldn't instantly jump into wearing baggy clothing. It'll drown out the shape of the adorable bump and make you look frumpy. Pick a fun pattern that compliments the figure of your body as well as the shape of the outfit.

In the picture is Jennifer M. 8 months pregnant and looking fabulous. She wore a maxi striped dress (old navy) with a white cardigan (gap) and topped it off with a pearl knot necklace with matching pearl earrings.
