Tip #86: How to Wear a MaxiSkirt

What is a Maxi Skirt?  It is definitely a flash back to the 70's (that would be 1970, not 1870!)  Maxiskirt is the opposite of a Miniskirt.... instead of being short, a Maxiskirt is ankle length-skirt.   
Another plus?  With a Maxiskirt, you don't have to shave your legs :)

So, how do you wear a Maxiskirt that enhances your figure instead of making you look frumpy?

KEEP IN MIND

  1. It's not for cleaning floors.  While the skirt should be long, you don't want it dragging on the sidewalk.  Depending on your height, your may need platforms or wedges to ensure the hem is at least an inch of the ground.
  2. Loose Bottoms require fitted tops.  Otherwise, you'll be the girl swimming in her outfit.  Consider a slim T, shrunken blazer, or a cropped chunky knit.
  3. Show Some Skin. Since you are completely covered from the waist down, contrast with a V-neck or an off-the-shoulder blouse and sandals.  
REMEMBER... this style may not be for your body type.  Just because it is in-style does not mean you have to wear it.
