How To Style A Maxi Skirt In The Fall

As the leaves begin to turn colors and the temperature begins to drop, most of us will begin putting away our Summer wardrobe and pulling out our warmer, cozier clothes for Fall. This means “bye, bye” maxi skirts, right? Wrong. Maxi skirts are one of those fantastic items that, with a few little tweaks, you can actually rock year round. There are so many ways to style a maxi skirt as the weather turns cooler, here are four simple tips to follow when putting together your maxi skirt outfit this Fall!

Choose the right outerwear.

Get The Look:Pairing just about any jacket or sweater with a maxi skirt will immediately add a Fall twist. A classic jean jacket is simple and sensible, while adding a poncho, fit snug with a belt gives off a bohemian vibe. The key to choosing the right piece of outwear is to make sure you don’t pick something too big – you could end up looking frumpy. If you decide to wear a baggy sweater, make sure to secure it with a belt for a more put together look.

Get The Look:Vests are also a fantastic addition in the autumn months.  When the unavoidable chilly weather comes along, having a nice leather jacket to top off your outfit will make the cold a little more bearable. If you have a more formal event, but aren’t feeling a dress, try a maxi with a blazer. It will add sophistication without making your outfit boring. It never hurts to have an extra layer in the fall, believe me, you’ll appreciate the warmth!

Don’t be afraid of color.
