If you have followed me for a while, you know that I am a very big believer in remixing my closet! I love to find many different ways to wear the pieces in my closet. I try my hardest not to repeat an outfit. Today, I'm going to show you 9 different ways you could style a maxi skirt. I got this maxi skirt from Martin's.
Martin's is a great store with phenomenal customer service. Their website has a lot of cute dresses, skirts, tops, and sandals! All of my followers can get 15% off of your purchase using the code: modernmodesty15. I hope you find lots of cute for the spring and summer!
I had a lot of fun coming up with all of these looks! Here's all of the looks up close.
Look #1
When you are short like me, you can wear most maxi skirts as a dress! Instead of folding over the waistline, just pull it up over your chest! I have to wear a camisole underneath as well. I got this pocket cardigan from Martin's as well.
Look #2
I used the pocket cardigan again, and also added a comfy oversized tee, that I tucked in and used a wide belt over the maxi skirt waistline.
Look #3
This would be a great look for a date. (This one was my husband's favorite!) I just added a denim jacket and a statement necklace. Simple, yet cute!
Look #4
This is a little more of a dressier look. Could be worn to church. I once again used the skirt as a dress.
Look #5
This is a simple, chic look! This is something I would wear going out shopping or out to eat. Very comfortable and easy!
Look #6
This is a look I would wear to work. For some reason, when I wear a cardigan I feel more studious and "teacher-y"
Look #7
Here's another casual outfit. Just a simple v-neck tee with a pop of color camisole underneath. I topped it off with a wide belt and jean jacket, but for a more simpler look, just remove the jacket and belt.
Look #8
This is my favorite look! Maybe just because I think everything looks better with a chambray! ;) But for real, you can't go wrong with a patterned skirt, chambray, and a statement necklace!
Look #9
Here's another chambray look. This one is a little more casual with the chambray tied and a smaller statement necklace.
I hope this helps you realize just how remixable ONE piece of clothing is! Don't limit that one patterned piece to one matching item! Be a great steward with what God has blessed you with! Get all you can get out of your closet!

Love it! I love styling my maxi's as dresses. (: I saw those shoes at Burkes (Which is actually Bealls, just another version. They renamed it Burkes in different states which is weird to me...) and I wanted them so bad! Sadly they were all either a size too small, or several sizes too big! :(
The denim jacket and chambray maxi combo looks are my favorite - I think it's the contrast in material that makes it work so well. Also I like the idea of wearing the maxi as a dress... I have worn dresses/tops as "skirts" sometimes but not the other way around yet!
Love it all! Now I want to go through my closet & make some new creations :) Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteYay! Have fun! :)
DeleteWhere did you get your black sandals?
ReplyDeleteBealls. It's a store in Florida, but you could probably find them online. http://www.beallsflorida.com

ReplyDeleteI actually don't have any maxi skirts because I'm short and they are so long. I've really been wanting to try one so I thank you for all these ideas!
