Despite my height, I love maxi dresses.
The long, flowing hem makes me feel like a beach goddess or a woodland fairy, waking from her reverie only to leap and spin in her natural habitat in a stunning array of colors and swooshing fabric.
But the little girl in me cannot resist climbing a tree and all grace and goddess-ness flies out the window.
I tried to flip all the way upside down before realizing monkey bars and dilapidated trees are two different things.
I found a sturdy branch, took a nap a la Katniss, then realized,
"Ah crud, how the heck am I going to get down now?"

The answer: Not so gracefully at all. Ouf. |
Any fellow tree climbers out there?
How about Maxi dress lovers?

I love a good maxi dress! It makes me feel feminine, relax and powerful at the sametime. (nice tree climbing abilities)
I love maxi dresses! They are so comfy! And yes - I am not afraid to admit that I still climb trees...despite being 24. It's relaxing to spread out on a limb with a good book!
oh i miss the days when i used to climb trees in my parents garden, such fun! even more fun i see in a gorgeous floaty maxi dress :)
LOVE maxi dresses (despite being so short, hehe).
Pretty dress! That looks like so much fun! My tree climbing days are unfortunately behind me.

That is a beautiful dress! Especially up in that tree! : )
These photos are gorgeous!!! so much fun. oh and lol "took a nap a la Katniss"? brilliant.
You look amazing! I haven't attempted to climb a tree in years. Lord knows what would happen if I did! You managed to do it and look incredibly graceful. Incredible!
Have a great weekend :) xoxo
I am all of the above :) Love that maxi dress on you. That afternon was so fun!!! Next time we're up there lets go for round two :) BTW, are you two coming down here next weekend? I just washed all of our blankets for a picnic on the beach ... I may be just a tad excited :)
I love them but more than that, you made me smile so much in this post!
My goodness you have SUCH beautiful lines!!!! Stunning.
I love this post -- so cute :]
I love a good maxi dress too, but I have a hard time finding one that fits... I'm only 5'4 but EVERY maxi dress I try on is waaaaaaay too long. Boo.
hehe this is awesome! i love that you are climbing trees with this dress. you are still so graceful looking to me when you're up there. happy weekend, friend!
Love that dress on you. I've alwaysb een afraid to wear maxi dresses because of my height but maybe now I'll give it a try. They seem great for the summer months
These photos are so wonderful! The last time I climbed a tree I fell out of it–I've stayed on the ground since!
LOVE that maxi dress! Beautiful on you. I'm terrible at climbing trees though. Haha.
I do! I do! I love maxi dresses! And you look SO PRETTY!!! Maxi suits you very nice! and I had no idea you were 5'2"! I always think of you and me being the same height!

I've never worn one......but they're so cute!
Way to climb! lol. Maxi-dresses are incredibly comfortable. This is a gorgeous one! Love the electric blue in the print!Enjoy your weekend dear.xx
Wow I'm impressed with your tree climbing skills!!
very cute... btw, i flaked out on the movie... it doesn't start until next friday! haha!!
I love your photos they are so unique!I 'm a maxi dress lover, they look good with my height...
that is a really pretty dress!
Gah! You have such incredible balance and poise, Tiffany! I'm a total tree climber, which definitely doesn't bode well for my shoe collection. :P
As for maxi dresses...I'm 5'1, so I just don't think we'd get along very well. Nevertheless, I think they are gorgey! :)
I have 1 maxi dress that I love and fits me perfectly, no alterations needed! Yup,hard to pull off on a short person...
You look gorgeous!
Sweet photos- great tree climbing dress indeed.
You are so darn cute I cant' stand it! LOVE this post... you have me grinning from ear to ear. xo
I got my first maxi dress a month ago and I'm obsessed! Yours is cute!
I think we should all try this! They say hanging upside down is good for the brain :)
i'm just not brave enough to buy/try/wear a maxi dress. and yes, i have my height to thank .__.
Aaah Tiffany, only dancers can wear maxi dresses and climb trees so graciously!
Ha! I love how fun this looks. And of course, gorgeous dress.

definitely a fellow maxi dress lover! I'm also 5'3 so they probably aren't the most flattering on me but, I wear them anyways! :)
I may not be a tree climber but am definitely a maxi dress lover.
Those are lovely photos.
AMAZING POST:) Your blog is so wonderful and Im following..I hope you follow me also:)
Have an awesome week.
LOVE Maria at inredningsvis.se

I think I've worn a maxi dress twice! They do feel nice but I have an aversion to them for some reason (I think it's height) :(
How I love dresses! But I'm not sure I can climb trees with them! haha..
lol. climbing a tree as an adult is funny in and of itself, but to do so in a MAXI DRESS!?! lol. good for you.
i like SOME maxi dresses. some look ok on me, and some make me look like a brick. it is all in the cut! and the pattern. and the fabric. and the flow.
yes, i am so difficult! so picky! lol
I'm only 5'2 on a good day and I love maxi dresses =)
you are beautiful, my friend!
