Picking an outfit for a special occasion is often as fun as the event, and who doesn’t love the satisfaction that a bit of retail therapy can offer? However, there are often obstacles in the way of that coveted new dress – payday, fixing the car, your best friends birthday present. Suddenly the dress you’ve been dreaming of is just a dream, and you might be thinking, ‘what’s a special occasion without a new outfit?’.
Really, what we need is something that we can pull out of our wardrobe for any event, something that will make us look and feel amazing. So, what is the ideal style of dress suitable for this versatile role? A maxi dress of course!
We’re taking a look at three great maxi dresses that are perfect for any and every occasion.
1. Dove Dress In Navy Star
This elegant shirt dress will make you feel sophisticated at any occasion. Whether it is date night, drinks with the girls or a city break, this dress is a must. It’s guaranteed to turn heads thanks to its subtle star pattern and floaty skirt. The slim fitting sleeves with tied ends are just another flattering feature. What’s more, thanks to the attached buckle belt, you can alter the appearance of the dress to change it up for different occasions.
Complete the look with dainty silver heels or black knee-high boots. A brightly colored purse will complement the dress, yet stand out as a separate accessory to the outfit.
The icing on the cake for this maxi dress is the price – it is retailed at just £57 from SilkFred. This is an excellent long-term investment piece to add to your wardrobe.
2. Dove Dress In Green Leopard
Although this dress is the same price and style as our first dress, its vibrant print gives it a very different type of feel. The bold leopard print fabric will have you feeling confident in no time – this is a killer statement dress.
If you want to turn heads when you go to the pub or out for a few cocktails, then this is the dress for you! What’s more, if you’re partial to showing off your legs, this is perfect. The maxi length combined with a split creates the perfect mix of sexy and classy.
You can change the dress to suit the occasion. Swap the belt for a different one, switch up the shoes with what you fancy at the time – the choice is yours and the options are endless. By adding bold statement jewelry you can be ready for any event that comes your way.
3. Wrap Front Satin Maxi Dress Black
The asymmetric hem and plunging neckline make this the perfect maxi dress for an office party, date night or any other glamorous occasion. The unusual design allows for a unique style in comparison to the other two dresses on our list. The waist belt comes to a bow at the left of the waist, cinching you in to flatter your figure. The high to low hemline makes this dress truly worthy of the red carpet.
Complete the look with silver heels or a glittering alternative to add some additional color to the dress. Add to the wow-factor by pairing the dress with a layered necklace and a loose up-do. Although the price for this satin dress comes in a little more than the other two (£75 from SilkFred), it will be worth every penny in compliments.
By choosing one of these three dresses, you can be ready for any occasion, whether that is date night, a wedding or cocktails with the girls. Have fun and make it stylish!
