Boho Maxi Dresses Under $50

I saw one that I really like at Suzy Shier but I didn't end up getting it because it was obviously too long. So I'm wondering...where is the dress supposed to end? Like are they supposed to go all the way and touch the floor or stop short at the ankles or somewhere in between?

@Takoda, I know exactly what you mean! I'm at 5'1'', if not shorter, and I swear I get stockier by the day! I have a problem with wearing a dress that will be cinched at a waist far too high or low than my own, which makes me look pretty wide. I hate that! and since I'm not one of those size zeros, I have to really watch for what will make me seem smaller, but not shorter.
Adding on to Siofan's advice, I found lace really works well to build texture on myself...I try to keep the lace as close knit as possible (rather than big gaping holes, more like smaller patterns of lace)
Let me know too if you find something that looks great on you! :)

Thanks Siofan, those are great tips and yes I will let you know how I make out.

I will absolutely wear these this summer. It's perfect for my bump!

@takoda I know it's a tough one when you're petite. I think the old rule of vertical stripes still holds true (like the Roxy one above), they do make you look longer. Also, chevron patterns can be good. Stay away from too full skirts, you'll look lost in all that fabric! They likely won't make you look taller, but make sure you get one that cinches in at the ribs, you'll look leaner which helps with looking longer. Let me know if you try some on and find one you like!

I really
like them because they are very comfortable especially in the hot summer, but I
haven’t had one for years. I think the last one I even had was a maturity one
witch made me look like a circus tent. LOL I also always felt like they made me
looked shorter then I already am. I’m only 5’4” and shrinking. LOL So if I did
go for one this year I’d probably go for one that’s all one colour. That is
unless you know witch print could make me look taller with out having to wear
heels. Any thought on that one Siofan??

Whenever I see someone wearing a maxi dress down the street, I see heads turn everywhere. It's not often that you see a summer dress worn long!
These dresses look so pretty, particularly the Roxy South West Dress!
I agree with Tammy, these are definitely for the taller girls.

I absolutely LOVE these dresses. They always look so ridiculously long on the racks so I think most people will probably need to hem them (especially me since I'm quite short lol). I do think that they look better on taller people though.
