Maxi Skirts

Maximize Your Maxi: 5 Ways to Wear A Maxi Skirt

Tired of wearing your maxi skirt the same way day in and day out? Just as jeans can be cuffed and sleeves can be rolled, we’re showing you three simple ways to get the most out of your maxi. Knot it, belt it or get boxy: get inspired by these three ways to the skirt.

Knotted Up

Stop wearing your skirt the same way, day after day. Give your skirt a much-needed lift by shortening the hem with a messy knot. Be it too long or too short, the loose tie is a quick fit for an ill fitting skirt. Fake a center slit by gathering a small section of the skirt, just as you would a ponytail, starting at the hem. Wrap the excess fabric around itself or secure with a rubber band. Style your asymmetrical hem with ankle boots and a fedora.

Belt It

Take your maxi to the next level with a belt. Cinch it around your waist to highlight the waistline or let it hang loosely at the waist for the perfect finishing touch to your look. Darker belts with metal embellishments like studs add edge, while delicate braids and soft, light leathers channel a more feminine feel. Whatever your style, bring contrast to your maxi with a belt. Finish the look with a chambray blouse and bangles.

Boxed Out

Dainty silhouettes are so yesterday. Embrace a shape that’s a bit more out of the box. Layer long, loose-fitting tops over your maxi for a boxy look. The feminine style channels an androgynous feel adored by girly-girls and minimalists alike. Play with contrasting textures like chunky knits and sheer chiffons for dimension.

Make the most out of your maxi with these styling tricks that will leave you with a fresh look with each wear.
