I have a confession: I do not own anything maxi. No maxi dresses, no maxi skirts, nothing! I have just never found anything maxi that was long enough to cover my long legs. The other day, my aunt showed me this dress that she had purchased, and I fell in love with the print. I was scared to try it on, because I didn't think it would fit right, but to my surprise, it did! I now have full confidence that i will find a maxi piece of my own very soon!

 I was once told to never wear more than one thrifted item at one time. Well you know what I say to that? As if! I love thrift stores and I really love it when I can rock head to toe thrifted items. It gives me so much satisfaction when people's eye bulge out of their heads after hearing that I only paid upwards of three dollars for my whole outfit. I say, if you've got em, flaunt em!

When it comes to fashion, I'm a huge fan of mixing unconventional pieces together. I found this dress at H&M during my trip to Santa Barbara over the weekend, and fell in love with the Eiffel Tower print. I knew I wanted to mix it with gold accents to match the gold zipper detail on the back, however, I just wasn't feeling it with my basic gold flats. I went out on a limb and threw on my brand new gladiator sandals and absolutely loved the outcome! What do you think about this odd pairing?
