Gorgeous, Wear Anywhere, $26 Plus Size Maxi Dress

Sometimes our favorites sneak up on us. That was the case with this stretchy floral maxi dress I bought from Amazon three years ago. I’d never really been comfortable in maxi dresses, but Instagram was abuzz about this one. I’d also never bought clothes on Amazon. 

The dress came in several colors and patterns, and unlike many that I’ve wondered about online, I was assured this dress actually fit the women with similar figures to mine. 

The price was reasonable ($26!), I really liked the pattern, and if you saw my IG post about it, you know the clincher was… it had pockets! As much as we all rave about discovering pockets in dresses, you’d think designers would add them to everything, wouldn’t you?

When the dress arrived, I understood the internet’s excitement. It was body skimming yet comfy, and hung really nicely. The fabric is silky soft, stretchy, flowy, forgiving and breathable, which is especially nice on hot days. 

I’ve worn this dress everywhere, from the beach to dressy events, and it doesn’t wrinkle, so it’s perfect for travel. Three years and counting… I’m pretty sure you’ll be seeing this one for a while!
