Does anyone know where I can find maxi dresses for tall ladies in (Juniors, misses, or women's sizes)? Im sooo tired of buying the regular length maxi dresses because the hem always stops 3-4 inches above my ankle because of my butt, hips, and height. And that's not cute because it makes me look flooded. LOL! Does anyone else have the same problem with this or is it just me?

    Oh my gosh I have this problem too!! I looked high and low for just a maxi skirt the other day and could find nothing. Last season I did find some at Kohl's. Surprisingly cute and they were long enough. If you have any luck let us know. Those dresses were 30 lbs ago so not gonna happen this summer.

    I paired it with this sweater in Good Night Nora:

    It is adorable on!!! I am 5'10 and it comes to the top of my feet. I am planning on getting family pictures done in the Good Night Nora dress.

    I wore this black coverup/dress from Target out and about, and it reached all the way to the top of my feet (I'm 5'11), it was cute and comfy

    I randomly found a long skirt that actually hit the tops of my feet at TJMaxx this weekend. To be honest, I'm not positive that it's NOT a dress, but I'm going to wear that stretchy band around my waist and work it! The moral of the story is: Just keep searching! You never know where you'll find something awesome!
