Striped Maxi and Leopard

It's usually this time of year when I break out the maxi. I love a good maxi dress. I would wear them every day!! If fact, when I was pregnant last summer with Charlotte I am pretty sure I wore them every day! When I saw this one at Target, I knew I had to have it!! At first, I was thinking what I could pair with it- brown, gold, maybe a bronzey (yep, bronzey) type color. Then, leopard came to mind. I thought it would be unexpectedly perfect- love to mix patterns!! Especially leopard- it goes with everything (at least to me it does!) The slit on the side was a nice little twist to a standard maxi. It allowed a little peek of my leopard sandals, which you sometimes...
