    Never thought twice about the maxi for evening wear - but I love this! Comfort + glam is a perfect combo!

    I love Kirsten's dress- it looks elegant and wintery cozy at the same time. So pretty. You can't go wrong with black.

    I love that pink strapless dress the best! It's so cute and simple but so classy. And of course, who doesn't love Emily Blunt? She's married to Jim Halpert! Lucky lady.

    Absolutely agree hun. The maxi dress totally elongates the form and is incredibly flattering on most body shapes =) the cheeky deep cut on Kirsten is really flattering on her ^_^
