Ciara Maxi Dress

Looking for a colorful tropical print maxi dress with flutter sleeves that's lightweight enough for summer but cute enough to make people ask where you got it?

You know those Saturdays when you're just running to the farmers market...and somehow it turns into coffee, lunch on a patio, popping into three boutiques you definitely didn't plan on visiting, and ending the day with ice cream because the kids were "so good?" Yeah. This is that dress.

It's the one you grab because you don't have to think. Add sandals, throw your hair in loose waves (or don't), grab a crossbody, and suddenly the woman buying peaches next to you is asking, "Excuse me...where did you get your dress?"

The soft watercolor print mixes lavender, blush pink, aqua, sage, cream, and warm cinnamon into one ridiculously pretty combination that somehow goes with everything. The oversized flutter sleeves give just enough drama to make it feel special, while the flowy silhouette lets you eat the tacos, order dessert, chase the toddler, and still feel amazing when someone snaps a picture.

Because life's too short to own dresses that only look good standing perfectly still.
