Lookbook: Ikat Print Maxi Dress & Zolie Designs Necklace

I have a long time love affair with maxi dresses. I remember seeing old pictures of my mom in 70s in beautiful maxi dresses and thinking she has to be the most beautiful woman in the world! I think those images make me think of maxi dresses as the ultimate feminine dressing! I saw this ikat printed one from Willow and Clay at TJMaxx (Hey, can I say I am a Maxi-nista and a Maxxinista!) and immediately fell in love with the color and the boho print. And what do you know, it has a slit going up to the knees too!
I needed a pretty, feminine yer statement necklace to accessorize this outfit as it has a very simple neckline. This Amazonite bead necklace by Zolie Designs fit the bill perfectly! I had seen gorgeous, hand made bead jewelry by Zolie Designs on many of my favorite blogs and always loved the beautiful craftsmanship. Zolie Designs jewelry is sold in various stores as well as their Etsy store. Shop their amazing collection and be a fan of their facebook page for the latest addition.
Necklace - Zolie Designs (such a great 'look for less' for this Oscar de la Renta necklace)

These bow knot cork wedges from MyHotshoes.com are made of linen like fabric that is very soft, the low heels make them perfect for all-day wear and I love the turquoise color - reminds me of  ocean, beaches and summer time! They are just $10!! (say what!!)
Shoes - My Hot Shoes (similar Here)

    The dress is sooo gorgeous! It reminds me of Vincent Van Gogh's Starry Nights painting - the color scheme, that is. And that slit just helps with the flowiness! Agh <3 xx
