Maxi skirts are one of the most effortless articles of clothing, which means they’re essential for summer wardrobes. Breezy and lightweight, it’s easy to see why they are one trend that returns season after season. They were all over the runways, and fashionistas from Kate Bosworth to Kim Kardashian are fans. So this summer, take your skirts to the max.
Balance is key to most fashion decisions, and the same goes for maxi skirts. What you pair one with depends on its fit. For instance, pair a body-conscious style with a loose blouse, and a white or pastel pleated number with a snug tank. The exception to the rule is when there’s a chill in the air—a chunky cardigan looks chic and comfy with a flowy skirt.
Maxi skirts have the ability to look casual by day, and dressy by night. For a laid back look, slip into gladiator sandals, then accessorize a floral- or tribal-printed skirt with a low-slug belt and multiple necklaces.
If you’re at the beach, throw a sheer skirt over your bikini. For an office-appropriate look, tuck an Oxford shirt into your skirt and pick a nude sandal with a bit of heel. And for a night out on the town, pair an eye-catching, high-waisted skirt with a slit with strappy wedges to show a little leg.
