Dakota.

Even when I am on the hunt for a great maxi...it has to follow the very same rules I apply to all my purchases. I must be able to wear it three different ways or it's no bueno. The Dakota Dress from Catch Bliss Boutique fit the bill quite easily. This is my "tough meets fem" version. I plan to wear it with a pair of gladiator flats for farmer market mornings and with a colorful blouse tied at the waist making it appear like a skirt. Possibilities? Endless.

I love the floaty top and geometric print. I love the possibilities of mixing bright accessories or pairing this maxi with neutrals; even leopard for a more sophisticated look. Yes, you could say I've joined the maxi club. Finally. 

P.S. Chicago weather has been glorious!!
