Now the weather looks like its going to heat up we can finally get out our summer wardrobes :-) & one dress I've been eager to wear is this gorgeous maxi dress, which I've been lucky enough to have been sent by Boden.
It's available in two colours (viridian & raven) & is perfect for long summer days. Plus being made from a jersey fabric with plenty of stretch (95% viscose & 5% elastane) it's super comfy & ideal for days where you can't be bothered to tan up &/or shave your legs ;-)
After much umming & ahhing I decided to choose the emerald green coloured dress (viridian) as I used to have a maxi dress this colour & love this vibrant shade of green teamed with metallic accessories or a denim jacket on cooler days. Not to mention a tan when we're on holiday :-) And of course with my love of pom poms & tassels I just love the belt.
I've decided to team the dress for today with my Boden Lille lace up shoes & have thrown on my denim jacket until (if!) it warms up but I'm also looking forward to wearing it with simple metallic sandals & may even occasionally swap the belt to give a different look & feel - perhaps with a gold metallic plaited one I have hanging in my wardrobe.

So has any one else been tempted or purchased the dress & how do you wear your maxi dresses? On their own or layered up, as always I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Have a fab Monday, fingers crossed the good weather continues (I've heard rumours it could be a hot week!!) & finally a quick heads up - Boden currently have up to 30% off all dresses & accessories click here & Great Plains have just launched their up to 50% off sale see here - happy shopping!

I love the dress, I love the color, and I love to see a picture of you away from your door. LOL.

Gorgeous dress, Jane. I love this colour. I wore a maxi skirt today but I've not worn my maxi dresses yet. Must bring them out

You can't beat a maxi dress or skirt can you Lynne....I just love the length & how floaty they feel when you're wearing them.
