When it comes to super-sized style, maxi dresses and excessive accessories make for a kitsch-tastic combo. I'm talking about maximalism, the aesthetic that flouts the old-school edict of taking one thing off before leaving the house and instead adding five more. I remember being excited when I found out that it was a thing. Deep down, I'd always known it was okay to look like a try-hard Christmas tree. So, it's with unabashed enthusiasm that I share these fits. Stacking the flair is not only fun but functional because I like to have things to look at throughout the day. It's why the idea of a uniform -- by which I mean anything from a school-issued skirt and blouse to a pants suit -- sends me into, to quote Anne of Green Gables, "the depths of despair."
That said, Anne, with her love of whimsy and pretty things, would've been a maximalist of the first order.

I love the maxi! So beautiful! Love the necklace and more! Awesom Anne of Green Gable look and quotes! Thanks so much! I've been going to PT. I took myself off MIRTZ it makes me so hungry. It wasn't helping my blood sugar..also I have not started the new monitor yet since I have to insert the senor in my sore arm..ugh..I'm barely getting over the 3 vaccines I just had last week. Always something. All the best to a beautiful fall!
Oh, such an amazing post! You do look amazing in that maxi and in all your outfits! Of course. I on the other..um..well, somebody did say I was cute this past week. I didn't see that coming. 💛💛💛💛💗💗💗💗💕💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thank you so much for reading and your comments. I so appreciate them. Thanks for being here. (seriously, I might start that senor in my right arm..just had to put that in). Thank you so much for being inspiring and much much more!
Maximalism for the win!! I love the mix of hot pink, black and blue in your first outfit - and of course, the cute bow! Your accessories are amazingly fun; I really like how you photograph them, such as with the notebook paper. The sweet pastels of the second and third outfit are stunning! The flamingo purse goes so well with the purple outfit, too. Wonderfully whimsy indeed! 🎀💝
I've noticed that they have showing a lot of longer dresses and skirts and I'm really enjoying them. They are so flattering.You've got lots going on with your outfits - so many fun accessories and I love all the colors..Beautiful outfits and fabulous shoes. I'm curious how many pairs of shoes you have?
