I don't like to enforce major rules with style, but I always have little outline of requirements I keep in my head. For instance a full length maxi dress should have many openings to show off skin. A way of balancing out the full coverage in a tasteful way. Whether that be a plunging neckline, thigh splits or of course both! It leaves a lot to be desired.
Florals, sweet and lovely but I forever choose a moodier colour palette. It's just how I like to wear my flowers. It exudes a little more rock 'n' roll and toughens up your whole look. I love darker based prints with a retro seventies flowers.
The dress is by Band of Gypsies and is on sale in the US here with lots of their collection on sale in the UK here.
