Look of the day

You can wear the summer maxi dress to work, just like you can wear it at the beach, during the weekend and even in the evening. It’s all a matter of styling. The maxi dress is one of our favorite spring and summer staples, and it’s basically your best choice if you’re looking for an effortless outfit. The hot weather is indeed here, and my legs are begging us to breathe, and I intend to do so. As soon as the temperatures rise, I make sure to put away my jeans, sweatpants, and leggings and look for breathable pieces, and the perfect ally for this is the maxi dress; not only it is easy to wear and to style, it has also this summer vacation vibe that I love. Plus there are so many ways to wear the maxi dress! Pair it with flat sandals or sneakers, and you’re ready for the weekend. Style it with kitten-heeled sandals and some delicate jewelry, and you have the smart casual look that will look effortlessly chic at work or if you’re hanging out with your friends at a coffee shop. For a chic evening outfit, look for a maxi dress in a luxe fabric and a statement color, pair it with heels and a clutch, and you’ll look incredible in seconds. If you’re looking for some style inspiration, I rounded up some of the chicest and coolest maxi dress looks spotted on a few of our favorite fashion girls.
For today’s look, I got inspired by German style icon and Instagram star Veronika Heilbrunner, as I love her innately cool and effortless style. I picked out a maxi floral dress by Paco Rabanne, that is equal parts comfortable and chic (floral print is on-trend enough to wear again and again), and styled it with embellished flat leather sandals, a cute raffia handbag and oversized sunglasses. The 18 Kt Gold stackable bracelet adorned with precious stones and calligraphy by Egyptian jewelry designer Azza Fahmy, will definitely complement your look. Keep scrolling to shop the outfit, you will thank me later as I am sure you will look and feel amazing in the summer maxi dress!
