This unpredictable weather makes dressing appropriately a sort of task each morning. But nothing is more perfect for undecidable weather than Maxi Skirts! I myself own just one, but am thinking about expanding my closet. Maxi Skirts can be dressed up for work and evenings out AND dressed down for Sunday errands. Seriously though, I cannot express how amazingly put together they can make even the simplest pieces look.
However, one has to be careful when putting together outfits with Maxi Skirts. One wrong piece and you could make the mistake of looking like a slob or your crazy aunt circa 1960.
Some things to keep in mind:
1. Balance: maxi's are loose and flowy, opt for a tighter top. Think a fitted tank, shirt or even a body suit.
2. Take it easy on colors and prints: pair bold colors with more demure ones and in my opinion, ditch the prints all together since they can look super resort-ish
3. Pairing the right shoes is essential: you want to have an easy breazy look with maxi's. Try sandals, flats or wedges. Leave the stilettos in your closet.
4. For a more polished look, throw on a fitted button down
5. Keep the jewelry simple by focusing on one statement piece. Whether it be a necklace, cuff or earrings, take it easy on the bling.
Here are some great Maxi Skirt looks....
