Fashion over 50: Summer Maxi Dresses

Summer is upon us and I don’t know about you, but I love a good maxi dress for summer months. Dresses are cooler and more comfortable so much of the time as summer months get hot and sticky. I love a long flowy dress. Maxi dresses are my go-to these days, they cover a lot of leg but also look and feel great.

I picked this one up from Belk recently (click here for link, not affiliate link) and it’s going to be a fave this summer. I wore it out to dinner over the weekend and love the feel and fit. It’s on sale too for a great price. I love the tie dyed look and greens and blue tones are my fave. We have a beach trip scheduled again this year to St. George Island in August and this dress will be a perfect beach dress.

It has a cute scalloped hem and it’s flattering too with the starburst look around the waistline. I got a Small in this one and wore my spandex long underwear for a seamless look.

My little sidekick, Daisy is always up for a photo. This bracelet is from Victoria Emerson called Vigo (affiliate link). I love their jewelry too.

I’ve linked a lot of flowy maxi dresses, so hope you enjoy!

All the dresses above are linked below. There are 3 from TJ Maxx that don’t show up on the widget, but the rest of them are here linked, just click the pic (affiliate links):

    I love Maxi dresses too. I love them for church too. I have noticed some of them in the store don’t come all the way to my ankles though and I felt like it wasn’t my best look. I don’t see how you can wear the long spandex under them though. I would burn up!

      The spandex is very thin so it’s not that hot.

    Love Maxi dresses also! You look great in the blue the dye. Wish I had some of your height..only 5’1”, so I have to be a little more picky or they overpower me. And I always have on my spanx😁 Hope your Mom is feeling better🙏
