Maxi Dress, Minimum Effort





{Maxi: American Eagle Splurge} {Headband: Wet Seal} {Necklace: Old Similar}
{Shoes: Express} {Earrings: Limited Similar}

Hey all! 
It feels so good to be back at it on a Monday morning with an OOTD post! If you all might have noticed--I was a little MIA on the blog last week. No excuses at all except work has been crazy, I was buying a new car, and we are getting pre-approved for a new home. So I have had a lot on my plate and just needed a week to focus on it :) 

It's weeks like those that I love outfits like this. A maxi is the most effortless look--just throw it on and add a little jewelry and you are out the door--and looking spectacular. I made it a little more trendy by added the flower headband and wrapping my hair around it. Hair which I barely had time to wash last week--so this look is perfect ha! Glad I can be so honest with you all :)

OK--now onto a seriously question--DROID or IPHONE?! My plan is up today and I finally get to get a new phone (if you have seen my poor quality Instagram photos, you will understand my excitement ha!). But I am still debating getting the Galaxy S5 or and Iphone. Help a girl out with some suggestions :)

  2. Love this maxi on you girl! You look amazing! Congrats on the new car, and for being pre-approved on a house! You've been busy!! :) I currently have an iPhone and I like it but I'm definitely not a die hard iPhone user now. My friend has the Galaxy s5 and I really like it too. My contract is up in Sept so I've been trying to decide whether I want to give the iPhone another chance or try out the s5 myself!

  3. OMG that outfit is amazing!! You look adorable and SOOOO summery!!!! And yayyyy on getting pre-approved and the new car!!!! So exciting!! And my pick is the iPhone---I used to have BBerry OS for a feww years, then I went to Android, and now I have been with Apple for 3 years--and I will never go back!!! Android force closes wayyyy to much for my liking!! :)

  6. This is just the prettiest look!! Your floral headband is so feminine and adorable on you! Exciting news with the car and pre-approval for home and as for the phone I have an iPhone 5 and really love it. I haven't had any problems with it but I've never had a droid so not sure how they stack up.

  7. Gorgeous! Don't you love how easy maxis are?! Congrats in the new car and future new house! How exciting!! I've always been an iPhone girl! I tried a droid for about a week and hated it! Probably just because I'm so used to the iPhone! They are definitely more user friendly!

  9. This is a beautiful maxi dress. The colour is bright and eyecatching, love the flower headband. I'm afraid I'm so useless with anything technical, I don't actually know the difference between an iphone and a Galaxy!

  13. I love this maxi on you! It looks really good! I've always had iphones, so I can't personally compare, but my hubby switched from a droid to iphone and he likes his iphone much better!

  15. I have an iPhone, my husband had the Galaxy. His takes waaaaaay better photos. The new ones that just came out are waterproof. If I could do it all over again I would get the Samsung Galaxy. But I have invested too much money into iTunes to switch. :(

  19. Love this look! Such a cute necklace. I really need to try that with my hair. I love my iphone, but to be fair, I've never had a droid to compare it to!

  20. Love the dress, such a lovely color on you!! And your hair is so pretty like this!!
    I have an iPhone and I LOVE it! I didn't know if I would when my husband first got me one a few years ago, but I really do love it! I've never had a Droid but recently a coworker of mine switched from her Droid to an iPhone and she said after a couple of days she was used to it and loves it too!!

  30. OK that Maxi Dress is beautiful and it looks superb with the floral crown headband. A little hip Bohemian. I adore the pave necklace, bling stone earrings and bracelet. Simply Gorgeous, Ms. Tori. =)

  31. Droid, droid, droid. My husband worked for Apple and he hates iPhones. HATES THEM. Droids work so much better, and you will never want to go back to iPhone.

    On a fashion related note: I love the dress and flowers combo. :)

  36. The print on this maxi is so flattering! It took me a looong time to get on the iPhone bandwagon, but the pictures are great and apps tend to start with apple first. Oh and don't forget the endless options of cases;)
