OOTD: Cut out Maxi Dress

Hey everyone,

A new OOTD..this time with a maxi dress..I have only shot one striped maxi before and yet to post that..so actually, the 1st maxi dress outfit I am wearing here..

OOTD: Cut out Maxi Dress, Indian Fashion Blog

Few girls believe maxi dresses and palazzos are not for short girls and they only look good on tall girls..well let me tell you, its nothing like that. It all depends on how you carry it..everything can look good equally on shorter girls..not all of us are born tall and that does not deprive us of wearing these amazing stuff, trust me.

Some tips for short girls on how to wear a maxi dress:

  • Go for vertical prints.which run from top to bottom
  • Sheer fabric towards the bottom
  • Slim fit (or cinch with a belt)- You don’t want to look like you are stuck in a tent!
  • Wedge it up- You can add a fun pair of wedges or block heels (But stick to flats if its a beachy kind dress)
  • Hi low maxi dresses (Well these are very flattering on the petite girls)
  • Solid colors and colors close to your skin tone give you a taller appearance

So, go all out and try out those maxis, you fella short sistas 😀 And do share your pics with me 🙂

I am wearing a cut out printed maxi dress here, which has shades of red and green. I love this color combo..and the fabric is so soft to touch. It has a black knee length lining so makes it half sheer which is quite IN and looks chic. Only I wish the fit was more better..it could have been slightly flowy but cinched at the waist..and the upper part could have been more fitted.

I paired it with pop blue earrings and red and mint flats (since its more beachy kinds..you can always accessorize in a different way and add wedges for a different look) and kept it simple on the accessories front with just one gold bracelet and a gold headband..since the dress was to grab the attention.
