Maxi skirts are a great fashion statement at the moment,. They’re super feminine and are suitable for any body type and shape. If you’re a skirt/dress kind of girl, like me, maxi skirts are a must-have, since they´ll keep you warm, especially now that autumn and winter are just around the corner and you’re able to wear thick tights underneath. So how are you going to style your maxi skirt? Here are some ideas that will get you looking like Blair Waldorf, Alexa Chung or Nicole Richie!
It all comes down to two questions:
- What is your personal style?
- Which fashionista resembles your style?
Sophisticated – Blair Waldorf
You never have a bad hair day and hate the term “messy hair”, you like bright colours and you’re chic and elegant?
- Choose pieces that will look feminine with your skirt, such as blouses, tops with bows, or other sequences
- Footwear: Ballet flats, Mary Janes
- Outerwear: Tweed coats, Ponchos

Edgy/Indie – Alexa Chung
You love vintage pieces and the latest fashion. Whatever you wear, everyone copies your style because you’re a trendsetter?
- Wear fringed out tops, or tops with a print
- For outerwear choose a denim jacket, or a denim vest. Now that it’s getting colder, go for a leather jacket, and maybe throw a poncho over it!
- Footwear: Biker boots, plimsoles, oxfords.

As you can see, the maxi skirt is a versatile item, which can easily be styled and played around with. There are no do’s or don’ts, and in the end all that matters is how comfortable you feel.
