Shoes to Wear with Maxi Dress in Spring

Maxi dresses are popular options in the Spring as the weather warms and beautiful floral dresses and cozy knit dresses become a regular pieces in daily attire & for special events.

Remember I mentioned weather? Springtime could also bring a lot of unpredictable weather. Therefore, there are several shoe styles you’ll want to consider wearing with your maxi dresses to accommodate weather fluctuations.

A few Spring classics include ankle boots, sneakers, loafers, and chelsea boots. 

Let’s talk about rain. If you live in a particularly wet region, opt for a nice waterproof chelsea boot. This is one of the most versatile boot styles you can own.

Need a casual look for favorable weather? You can’t go wrong with a classic white sneaker. The chic white sneaker is a must have for any wardrobe. I personally love to wear mine with nearly any style dress!

Going to the office or church and need a more polished outfit? Pair your maxi dress with a timeless loafer! Ankle boots are also a good option if you have a dressier look you’re going for.

Shoes to Wear with a Maxi Dress in Summer

In the summertime, my FAVORITE shoes to pair with maxi dresses are  sandals and flip flops!

The pairing of a flowy linen or cotton dress with your favorite sandals is all you need to look stylish during warmer months.

For a more dressier look, you can also go with wedge sandals or strappy heels in warmer temps. These are great options for casual and formal occasions, depending on dress code of course.

Shoes to Wear with Maxi Dress in Fall

Many types of shoes can be worn with a long dress in the fall including ankle boots, flats, and mules (much like Spring). The key is to find a pair that complements your personal style, the style of your dress, and the activity/event you have planned.

In the Fall, boots are a great casual choice for a long dress. They will keep your feet warm while still looking good.

Need a dressier shoe for the Fall? Try a flat! Flats come in so many different styles and are nearly universal with maxi dresses.

For warmer temps, opt for mules with your maxi dress in the fall. A mule will allow your feet to breath while still fitting the season. Mules come in leather, suede, and other cozy fabrics that are popular in the Fall.

Below are a few different shoe styles that show exactly how you can wear a maxi dress in the Fall.

Shoes to Wear with a Long Dress in Winter

Winter always calls for changes to footwear selections due to colder temperatures, especially with maxi dresses. The goal is to stay warm while still maintaining your style. To do this, I recommend Lug/Combat boots or a pair of knee high boots.

Shoes to Wear with a Long Dress to a Wedding

The two best shoe options with a wedding guest maxi dress are pumps and strappy heels!

Nude heels are great for Spring and Summer weddings and darker colors are the best for Fall and Winter weddings. These are my go-to strappy sandals!
