Belted Maxi Dress; transition to the summer dress

As a petite girl I have always been on the fence about the Maxi Dress trend. And yet I have seen a number of petite bloggers pull them off super well.

I have had this almost maxi dress in my closet for a while now and I have never really worn it all that much. Partly because of the strapless top which makes it extremely seasonal or vacation only.
