Maxi Dress Style

So the maxi trend is nothing new at this point. These long dresses (or skirts) have been around and thriving for a couple of seasons now. However, I have yet to join the maxi lovers. Being a petite girl (5'3) I've always thought that maxis would drown me, and I would be constantly tripping over the extra fabric pooling at my ankles.  Surprisingly, after a recent Target excursion I tried on two maxis that fit perfectly and hit at just the right length!

Hi-Lo Merona Maxi 

Floral Merona Maxi

So cute, right? Merona is by far my favorite Target brand. Their pieces are so classic and fun! These dresses were both so comfortable and I could easily see wearing them with simple leather sandals for day, or wedges for night! I didn't get them, but I might just have to go back for the second dress. I just love the blue watercolor print and the greek key bottom! Do you love maxi dresses? How do you style them? Let me know!
