Short flowing mini dresses worn with bare legs and heels look great on twenty and thirty year olds, but that doesn't mean they are off limits to women over 40. Many of these dresses look an awful lot like long tops, which means they work on many midlife women if you pair them with dark leggings, and ballerina slippers, or flat boots.
