How to style a maxi skirt: 5 outfit ideas
Hi everyone! How's your week going? I started in a lovely mood today and hope to preserve it for the rest of the week. Today's blog post is another episode of our beloved How to Style column, where I share some tips and tricks to style a garment in a lovely way. Today is about a piece of clothing I've been looking for for ages but still need to find the perfect: the maxi skirt. Today, we're talking about how to style this timeless piece (and manifest an excellent find for me)!
The maxi skirt or a long skirt is a staple in a closet because you can turn it into a different mood and aesthetics within seconds. As usual, you'll need extra care to balance the skirt with other pieces and find the proper proportions. Don't worry. You'll master it by the end of this blog post.
Mix textures
You can mix different textures to add movement and drama to your outfit. So, if you have a satin maxi skirt, add a structured leather bag and a crochet top or knitwear.
Add a slim crop top and a wicker bag if you have a pleated maxi skirt. Then, a denim or a cargo maxi skirt is perfect for styling with light and feminine fabrics to create some contrast.
Mix aesthetics
I love mixing different aesthetics to create a personal style. For example, a cargo maxi skirt is bold, so pair it with a feminine top. A ruffle maxi skirt has a strong boho vibe, so you can style it with a tailored vest top, a pair of ballet flats, and a mini shoulder bag. This styling trick makes your outfit smart and less labeled.
The maxi skirt is great with sneakers and white socks because it has a casual attire with a sophisticated touch. I love it when you add some accessories like a baseball cap and a classic knit over-the-shoulder.
As you can see, a maxi skirt is a must-have in a closet because you can dress it up or down within seconds and using what you already have.
Also, you can wear it all year round because you can layer it for the colder months.
Now, it's time to see 5 outfit ideas to inspire you for your next outfit with a maxi skirt.
