I Don’t Wear Red, But This Maxi Dress Changed My Mind

Lately, I’ve been on a red kick. Which is very unusual for me and my “always neutral” wardrobe. However, I am loving the shade of this red summer maxi dress.  

It’s fun to mix things up right? This maxi dress from Chicwish has been a go-to of mine lately. And with the long sleeves, I have a feeling I will be wearing this in the Fall as well. The dress could be a great addition to your work wardrobe or just to have on hand for date night. I highly recommend  this easy going dress!

Austin and I are currently en route to Cabo San Lucas with my family for the week. We are so excited to relax by the beach and have quality family time. Stay tuned for some fun beach content!

xx Ashley

    YES I love this dress. Not only the color, it is stunnnnning on you, but also just the style and flow of the whole piece! What a perfect summer dress.

    I’m with you on the whole don’t wear red thing. Not until recently have I been loving it! I always thought red wasn’t a good color on me. Same thing with yellow…but all of a sudden I’m in love! Must be a summer thing? haha!

    Lovely post darling!

    I have always stayed away from red, but after reading this I might have to step out of my color comfort zone. Great look!

    This is stunning!! Goes so well with your hair too, you wear it well girl! I’m a neutral girl myself but I’m in the same place where I’m starting to gravitate to red and it’s so weird?? I actually wore a pretty little red dress in one of my recent posts!

    Lovely dress! I used to never wear red for most my adult life. I felt the color didn’t look good on me. But the last couple of years it seems I can’t get enough! Peace!

    You should wear red more often! Loving this style on you. I think it is the shade of red that is so flattering.
