Hey Loves,
This past week I was scrolling through pinterest looking at women's fashion, as it's one of the only things I look for while scrolling. Eitherway I saw a post about 50 spring fashion look ideas. Naturally I started scrolling, and came across a look that incorporated a maxi dress. The article suggested taking a leather jacket and pairing it with a maxi dress to make it appropriate for spring. I took this idea and made it my own here on Min Wage.
I own quiet a few maxi dresses, I love them because I don't have to worry about anything making an appearance that I would rather it didn't. If you know what I mean. Plus unlike skirts, maxi dresses or dresses in general really don't require much thought. No trying to make a shirt and skirt match business.
However following the advice of the pinterest post ( you can read it Here ), I paired this white lace maxi from Maurices with my leather moto inspired jacket from Express. And before you freakout about Express prices, I actually bought this jacket while the seasons were changing so it was on sale and cost me $80. A little pricey for us here, but it was originally $150 so i'm calling it a deal.
The dress however only cost me $45, which i've had this dress for two years, so the cost per wear price has gone down!
( Orginal price: $45, Worn: 10 times, 45 divided by 10 = $4.50 is now what the dress cost!)
Math is so much more fun, when applied to shopping.
And of course I paired my black knee high boots with the dress, to match my jacket and make the outfit ready for cold Minnesota springs. ( currently snowing).
What do you guys think? Would you rock a Maxi dress in spring?
Let me know in the comments.
