I love this Max Studio dress.  It's the longest maxi dress I have ever tried on, and it's the only one that has actually reached the floor.  I found it at Marshall's for $49.99, on sale from $149.99-- total steal!   This one was strawberry red with a pop of yellow at the bottom, but it also came in navy blue.  I like the balance of having your hair up with a maxi dress-- it lightens up the look since the excess fabric might be weighing you down.  PS If you want GREAT savings on maxi dresses you should also check out these on 6pm.com!  Free shipping, great selection, and amazing deals.
