Friday Fancies #8

Happy Friday Friends!

I for one am very excited  today, because it's date night with the Mister in a couple of hours, and it feels like it's been forever since we went out.
I'm also very excited because this is my first Friday Fancies in a LONG time. I don't know what has kept me away but boy am I glad to am back with {av} and the gang. 
This weeks topic is one of my favorite. Maxi Dresses.  

I was never really a huge fan of dresses when I was a lot younger. I was more a jeans and t-shirt kinda gal, and I still am. But, nothing says feminine more than a maxi dress does, which is one of the reasons I love them. You can still look and feel comfortable, and look dolled up without the hassle of having to do too much.
The mister is also a huge fan. 
I think I make his day when he sees me wearing one. 
Some of my friends tell me they don't really know what to do with a maxi dress. They feel like there is only one way to wear them. 
I had/have a similar problem myself, which is why I was excited to play around with different looks for my Friday Fancies this week. As I was 'shopping' around for something I can create, I came across this site that showed '100 ways to wear and accessorize a maxi dress'   
I thought, Oh my word, no way. 100? Where have I been all this time. 
See for yourself

I also hear people complaining that they can never wear maxi dresses at night, because it doesn't go.
I say false. 
And this is how I created my Friday Fancies outfits today, one for day and one for night!
