Simple Designs With Funky Prints Have Made Aryeh Dresses a Customer Favorite!

We discovered this flirty brand at our August Market trip and fell in love! Aryeh filled a gap that we had for a simple dress line that fit well, looked awesome and was easy on the wallet. With prices under $50, most of our customers are able to buy more than one dress. Once you slip an Aryeh dress on, you'll understand why they can't stop at just one!

Aryeh dresses are made from super soft fabrics. Some are fuzzy, almost fleece like knits while others have more of a soft chamois feel. There are even a few true sweater tunics as well. The Aryeh experience is similar to wearing your guy's favorite tee- no clinging, bunching or binding, just comfort. The patterns are definitely retro, reminiscent of the shift dresses of the 70's, but updated with this season's color palette. You'll notice a lot of polka dots, but you'll also find stripes and zigzag prints.

Because of the retro look of the Aryeh dresses, you may want to go easy on the 70's looking accessories, like plastic jewlery, white gogo boots and patent leather platforms, to avoid taking the look too far. Most of these dresses actually mix really well with tights or leggings and flats or boots. Add a Vintage Wool Tulle Jacket and you'll have a stylish, yet simple look.

One of summers hottest trends...the Maxi Dress!

One item no closet should be without this summer is the Maxi Dress or Patio Dress. This 60's inspired look comes in many colors, prints and styles so there something for everyone. The incredibly versatile Maxi Dress can be worn to a casual pool party with sandals and chunky jewelry, to a summer wedding with a cropped cardigan and a heel or to work with a jacket. However you choose to wear it, we're confident that you'll be able to get a lot of use out of it this season.

A welcomed change from the mini dresses of seasons past, the Maxi Dress offers a more flattering alternative for those of us without perfect figures. If you're petite, you can easily alter a straight hemmed Maxi Dress as long as you get one without special details around them bottom. An empire waist will also give you the illusion of being taller by adding visual inches to your stature. These dresses also work wonders on curvy figures when you opt for a slimmer cut, avoiding excess fabric. Don't underestimate the importance of a dress with a defined waistline if you have a plus size figure; you don't want too look like you're wearing a potato sack.
At The Denim Shop you can find Maxi dresses from LAMade, My Michelle and Lani in solids and prints.
