There are few things as easy-to-wear in life as a maxi. They keep me cool, take all the guesswork out of my outfit for the day, and are (usually) work appropriate when paired with a simple cardigan. Done and done. I thought it would be fun to share a maxi look that has been a staple in my closet this summer.
I snatched this dress up from H&M as soon as I saw it. I’m so glad I did because it’s sold out now!

While my maxi dress is sold out, there are still a ton of fun options out there. Here are my top picks for cute, affordable maxis:

You look gorgeous, love the colors of that dress! Was just catching up on your blog posts after being out of the country for vacation and saw you are doing Jenny Craig. I’ve been thinking about doing it for awhile now too. Would you be able to share some follow up for how it’s going after week 1? Thank you! 🙂
Erin says
Aw thank you! I am six weeks into Jenny Craig and love it!! I’m down 9 pounds so far which is less than I would like to be at this point but I’m remembering it’s a marathon and not a sprint!
Laura Kathleen says
Great maxi dress! I usually don’t wear too many maxis but I love how summery and flowy they can be! I should look for one to wear this summer!
Erin says
I am living in them! Haha

Kristin says
I’ve been living in Maxi Dresses this summer! I LOVE the colors of this one!
Erin says
Me too! I never thought these colors would work on me but then they did!
Melanie says
Very bold colors in that dress. I love it. It’s always hard for me to find a maxi dress that fits in the length so I tend to avoid them. This one looks great on you.
Erin says
Thanks Melanie! I was in love with H&M’s selection when I visited the store!
Sara @ Oats & Rows says
