Palm Print Maxi Dress

If you haven’t noticed, it seems like palm print is the hottest print of the season. And honestly, I’m loving it. But for super-trendy items that might be popular today and completely out of fashion next season, I don’t like to spend a lot. Enter this palm print maxi dress. It’s trendy, comfortable, and maybe best of all, under $30!!

In full disclosure, I will say that it is unlined. I would not plan on wearing this dress to a sunny backyard barbecue wearing black undies, but it’s definitely not see-through either! If you’re a bit self-conscious about VPL (visible panty lines!), you might want to throw on a slip. But I went without and was fine.

Another reason I’m pretty obsessed with this dress is the empire waist cut. With the waistline directly under the bust, it emphasizes the smallest part of the waist and is extremely flattering. Aaaand it also means that it works as a maternity option! I typically size up one size for my orders to Shein, but to accommodate my bump, I sized up two sizes to an XL. The fit is perfect with room to grow. And the length is also a major bonus! I’m 5’7″, so shorter gals be prepared to wear wedges or heels! But it was the perfect length for me in my low wedge sandals!

    Oh this dress is so gorgeous on you! I love the style, and the print. I didn’t notice palm prints were “in” this season, and I even purchased a palm print skirt this year. I just thought it was a standard print always available; but now that you mentioned it, I’ll probably start seeing them everywhere.

    Fast-food clothing is something I indulge in only once in a blue moon. When something calls to me so strongly that I simply can’t walk away from it 🙂 I can see how this maxi is so appealing, Lauren, it’s flowy and comfy and ever so pretty with an equally attractive price tag!!!

    p/s may I know what lipstick you’re wearing? The colour is gorgeous.
