Tuesday Love: Amie Maxi Dress at J.Crew

You know how one window shops?

I used to do this all. the. time. when I lived in NYC.

Nowadays, as a mom… my days of window shopping out and about are gone like the wind.  I do everything digitally now, usually when I’m on the couch at night relaxing from the day, and all the boys are in bed.

Which is where I laid eyes on the Amie Maxi Dress at J.Crew.

This is what I love about maxi dresses… they can be worn by any woman – regardless of her size and shape.  The fabric is so loose and free-flowing, and they’re ultra comfortable to wear.  Nothing is clinging to your body like super spandex.

So what is it about the Amie that I love?

Unstudied elegance in a deliciously soft knit (it drapes beautifully on the body, so it’s incredibly flattering too). The strapless bodice features a drawstring waist for a blouson effect, and the gorgeous floor-length silhouette makes it the perfect canvas for dressing up or down. Rayon/spandex jersey. Falls to floor. Import. Machine wash.

This is the kind of dress you want in the summer. You can toss it into a ball in your suitcase if you’re traveling (just fan it out when you get to your destination).  You can wear it to the beach. You can wear it out to dinner. You can (literally) wear it just about anywhere.

Did you see why I love?

I’ll probably get the NAVY color… need some more blue in my house! 😉
