three(+) ways to wear it: the maxi skirt

The maxi skirt is just as easy to throw on as the maxi dress but with a few more options.  I love this one from BB Dakota because the high slit shows just the right amount of skin, the jersey material with an elastic waist keeps it easy and casual with the option of wearing it as high or low as you like, and the deep charcoal is neutral.  Here are a few of the many options for layering a maxi skirt. 
The simplest way to wear the maxi is with a tank.  I prefer them draped over or tied in a knot (above) rather than tucked in since this completes the thrown on look.

For a more dressed up look, or to wear the skirt from day to night I adore the maxi with a black leather jacket (Improvd) thrown over the tank.


When it's chillier out, and you're wearing the skirt casually, a simple sweatshirt like this one looks so easy and comfortable. 


And for a slightly dressier look without having to wear a jacket, put on a silky button up, roll up the sleeves, and tie up the ends and you're ready to go. 


When fall hits, the maxi skirt doesn't have to be shoved into the back of the closet. Pair it with a slouchy sweater and a belt and swap the sandals for booties.
