I Won't Wear These 5 Shoes With Maxi Dresses—Here Are 5 I'd Choose Instead

@sasha.meiStyle Notes: There's no denying that fisherman sandals are having a moment. Since their revival last summer, the style has only gained in popularity and continues to prove they really do go with anything. To instantly upgrade a simple maxi dress to a fashion-forward ensemble, simply add fisherman sandals.
If you invest in one pair of sandals this summer, make it these.

@vivian.yrlStyle Notes: If you love a trainer pairing, I'd advise you go for a retro silhouette. Not only is the shape more streamlined, allowing for the focus to remain on the dress in question, but they work especially well with dainty dresses by employing the "Wrong-Shoe Theory".
Okay, this is stunning!

@shhtephsStyle Notes: Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of chunky sandals. But their heavy form can easily drag an outfit down, especially when you're playing with ankle-skimming lengths. To lighten the look, opt for a refined strappy sandal.
I just love the colour of this bandeau dress. Wear with other brights or keep it neutral with black, tan or white accessories.
I have these and can confirm just have comfy and versatile they are.

@oliviamarcusStyle Notes: As a big fan of cowboy boots, it might come as a surprise that I'm skipping them for now. One of the identifiers of cowboy boots is in the curved silhouette of the sides, which are often embroidered, and these intricate details aren't appreciated when covered with a long skirt. So, keep it simple and let your favourite minimalist boots earn their keep instead.
I just know these will work hard in your wardrobe for years to come.

@_marisamartins_Style Notes: As much as I love loafers, there's definitely a time and a place for them. And when I'm styling a maxi dress with flats, I tend to lean towards a more delicate ballet style, especially when it's a dressier pair.
