Here's an example of how to wear a maxi dress and make it look sexy.
Being tall and lean makes this easy to pull off, but don't shy away from this style of dress if you don't have that exact body type. I have a long dress that looks pretty good on my 5'3'', athletic frame. (I'll be sure to snap a few pics of it to show you.)
This dress is fun, simple, and sassy! When looking good is this easy, please don't even think about suggesting that you don't have time to worry about what you're wearing.
The dress is the star of this look so rightfully, the accessories are kept minimal. And please note: Red lipstick and a beaming smile are the perfect accoutrement to just about anything you put on.




I am short and will wear a maxi sometimes,but I think they look best on taller ladies.
I like your description of your bod; "built like a sprinter". I KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS,NOSHBABE ( smile)

@ August Deed: I tend to agree with you about maxi dresses looking better on taller women. The longer length of the dress just drapes more nicely on a taller frame. I must admit, I had to try on several long dresses before I could find one that looked good on my short body type. And you got me on the "sprinter" comment. I originally wrote runner but I changed it cause there's nothing really "thin" on my body. lol
