Do you have a fabulous Maxi Dress and now you don’t know what to wear with it? Well here are some outfit ideas to help you accessorize that gorgeous summer dress.
The maxi dress creates a lot of width, so you need to have height to balance that width or a small frame that can handle it. If you are short, choose some bohemian style wedges that will add a little height so your dress doesn’t drag on the ground.
 Madden Girl Fiiona Sandal – $19.95 |
 Rampage Quartz Sandal – $19.95 |
 Coconuts by Matisse Sandal – $24.00 |
 Pazzo Lovey Wedge Sandal – $29.90 |
If you are tall, choose fabulous flats like gladiator sandals or bohemian style sandals with embellishments or cool straps for an instantly chic look!
 R2 Nicoya Flat Sandal – $39.95 |
 R2 Gemma Strappy Sandal – $39.95 |
 Madden Girl Bleaker Sandal – $49.95 |
 Nine West Hades Sandal – $69.95 |
For cooler days or breezy summer nights, throw a cute denim jacket on top of your maxi dress for a casual twist. Accessorize with an eclectic necklace or bracelet. Go chunky if your maxi dress has a bohemian flair. If it’s smooth and form fitting, try something more delicate like a Tahitian Pearl Necklace

Thanks for this post! I’ve been dying to wear maxi dresses this summer but i’m 5’2″ and thought they’d look hugely overbearing on me. I’m for sure going to try on some soon.
