How to Style a Maxi Skirt

Chevron maxis look great when they reach all the way from your natural waist to the floor. Wear a button-up top in chambray or a solid color and tie the ends together at your natural waist.The chevron pattern will help to lengthen the appearance of your body, making you look thinner and taller.

Thicker knit maxi skirts are great for when it’s really chilly out. Wear a tank or cami tucked in to the skirt and throw on a cardigan over it for a lovely, layered look. If you feel like you’re drowning in the layers, add a belt at your waist.

If your maxi skirt has big stripes, wear a solid-colored top to pull the look together. This pattern also helps to lengthen your body, your lower half will appear miles long!
