Taller women have a harder time when it comes to
fashion, but there are some trends that seem to be geared toward the statuesque among us.Capri pants, tunics and shirts that reach the hip, and now maxi
dresses are very popular.
The white maxi dress was just starting to be popular at
the end of last season, and they are definitely back for this year.
Many tall women can get away with wearing a regular size
dress, but it's great when they can find them in a taller size because they are made in the
right proportions.
You have options when it comes to a white maxi dress - you can get a plain
one, or a black and white dress, or a maxi dress with a print.
A plain white maxi dress will go well with chunky or bold
accessories.Pair it with a brightly colored or slouchy handbag or dangly
earrings.
However, if your white maxi dress includes a bold print, keep it
simple.Gladiator sandals and flats look fantastic with white maxi dresses,
but if the dress is at least heel length, you can get away with a pair of wedge heels.
Metallic hues are definitely an attention getter, so look for
accessories and shoes in shades of copper, gold, or silver.The
possibilities are almost unlimited!
If you've never worn a white maxi dress before, you may not know how
they're supposed to fit.Don't worry - we're here to help!Be sure that the dress reaches your ankles (that's why finding a tall size is so
great).If you feel like the maxi dress will only call more attention to
your height, you can wear your hair down, and wear flats.
Maxi dresses are also flattering to all different figures- if you aren't
as fit as you'd like to be, choose a white maxi dress with an empire waist, and make sure the material isn't
clingy.These dresses also look great when they're paired with a shawl, or
a cropped jacket.

maxi dress for you!
Looking like a celebrity has never been easier, thanks to the white maxi
dresses.You don't have to have a perfect body to wear one, which is
probably why they are so popular.
Another great thing about them is their versatility.They can easily be dressed up or down, simply by changing the
accessories.For a day at the beach, team it up with a pair of flip
flops.For a night on the town, add a pair of strappy sandals and some
jewelry.
Once in a while, a fashion trend comes along that almost everyone can
enjoy.For this season, it's the white maxi dress.They are so versatile and universally flattering, that every woman should own one (or
three!)
