Little Black Maxi

I would be lying if I said there weren't already several all-black maxis in my collection but, this one was a must have. Bell sleeves and back detail, what more could a gal ask for? I'm always a bit skeptic to order maxis without trying them on because I'm so short, but I just had to have it so I didn't care if I had to get it hemmed. I previously purchased a swimsuit from my favorite fashion blogger's shop (here) and absolutely loved it so I knew this dress would be no different. I've been following her style for years now so it's hard for me to refrain from buying everything she picks out because it's all to die for. I'm still debating whether or not I'll get a few inches taken off the bottom because it's the perfect length with a pair of heels or wedges as-is.

I know this is a little off topic of my outfit, but for the past year I've been using the website EBates when I shop online so I figured I'd share a cool money making tip with you guys. It's completely free to sign up and you actually get money back for shopping online.. unreal, right? When you shop online all you have to do is log-in to your EBates account and pick the website off of their menu, once you find it, it will show you how much cash back you'll get from your purchase along with any promo codes or sales that store is having. Even though most websites are generally 2% cash back on a regular day, it definitely adds up! During most holidays stores will increase their % of cash back to sometimes 10% which is when you can really make back the big $$. I did ALL of my Christmas shopping online this past year and the check I just got from them was huge which is why I wanted to share this site with you all. If you think about it, you're getting paid to shop from home.. a dream come true. So, if you don't already have an account you can sign up HERE
