Last week when in Charleston, Hillary and I met up for a little photoshoot with Kim Graham Photography. We had been talking about shooting together for basically ever and were so excited it finally worked out!
Being that Hillary is the maxi dress queen (seriously, check out this gorgeous floral number and this playful green + white number) we decided to style our favorite maxi dresses for the spring season. I went full on Laura Leigh style with a blue and white striped maxi dress from Mulberry & King. While Hillary opted for a beautiful floral long sleeve maxi dress from H&M. Her style is currently sold out but they have the same dress available in two additional patterns.
Both dresses are ideal for the spring season! Easy to dress up or dress down. Pair with wedges, loafers or sandals.

The BEST Spring Maxi Dresses
There are SO many beautiful spring maxi dresses out right now! It seems maxi and midi length are a little more popular this spring. And I’m absolutely loving it! Especially when dining at a restaurant with the air conditioner on full blast. Or at church – our church is always freezing for some reason!
Anyways, back to the dresses! This floral number from Julia Engel’s line is my absolute favorite. I actually styled this dress from last years spring collection and cannot say enough about it. The fit is incredible! A great option if you’re attending a spring wedding.

Also, wanted to mention our handbags. They are both a little unique and really complete our looks. My blue and white handbag is from Paravel and truly just cutest, most unique little bag. It is ultra lightweight and the crush-proof canister design keeps the contents of your bag safe! If blue and white isn’t your thing, the bag is also available in black, tan, and red.
Hillary’s bag is so southern, I love it! The perfect size wicker handbag for everyday wear. It also includes a removable crossbody strap and the sweetest scarf to tie around one of the top handles. I was swooning over it the whole time we were together!
Such cute dresses!

These are both such fun dresses and I like how each one compliments your personalities differently! The handbags make for a unique touch as well. Definitely time to invest in more vibrant maxi dresses – I have a closet full of black LOL.
