I'm putting it all down to "but maxi dresses are just so hard to wear!"
Maybe it's my fault? I'm just not "wearing them correctly."

I really wanted this ^ one, it's fairly basic, from Topshop (of course) & only £18, which is great, as far as i'm concerned.
However, when I got around to trying it on, I found that it made my waist look tiny (BIG thumbs up there) but it clung to all my "fat bits" - unfortunately my hips and muffin. Yeurgh.
So of course, it became an instand no-no.
Having said that, I should be someone who can wear a Maxi dress. I'm 5 ft 7.5, which makes me fairly tall, and i'm a size 8/10 (8 in baggy clothes, 10 in tight clothes, and it's anyones guess for anything in between) so logically, I should be able to pull this off.
Yet somehow it all goes dreadfully wrong.
In all honesty, i'm feeling it's major GYM TIME! In June... because all my A levels exams start in a few weeks, and between revision, college & work there will definately be no time left over for gymming sessions.
OH, PEOPLE, WE HAVE A BREAKTHROUGH!
I now have TWO followers! I kid you not, this brought a little tear to my eye!
Thankyou!

I have this problem too, I think the tighter ones are not too forgiving! Black ones are more flattering though, and the topshop ones are made of a quite thin material, in New Look and River Island there are some with thicker jersey which I think looks nicer on. Have to admit I have become a liiitlle obsessed with maxi dresses hehe, hope this helps :)
