Maximizing the Maxi






Despite the everlasting wet curbs of Winter in NYC, maxi-dresses (cleverly disguised for the cold!) are everywhere. This little blurb from Glamour shows ever-tanned Cali chicks wearing them bare in the daytime for a one-piece casual look. Please note: as Paris Hilton is demonstrating, wearing a white babydoll maxi will not negate your skank factor. CHOOSE WISELY, ladies!

(And can anyone tell us who the two chicks on the right are??)


But what do you do when it's 20 degrees (11 with windchill!) and those long, strappy dresses are beckoning? Megan found this sweet article in Lucky magazine (our favorite!).

Start with a turtleneck, add a long straight dress, and add a blazer (or a cardigan, for less meek more chic). Exaggerated jewelry, simple hair, and your favorite boots- and you're ready to rock that maxi through the cold, hard, NYC winter.
