With a button down top you can express different looks: the casual look, work appropriate, and going out. Like button downs maxi skirts can be worn in different ways to express different looks. Here's a mini guide on dressing maxi skirts:
Casual Dressing:
Start with a top that is casual looking like a chambray, denim or even a plaid top (if doing a basic maxi skirt). To pull off the Jessica Alba look make sure it's a top that you can tie in the front. Sometimes maxi skirts can make us look smaller then we really all so to give you some height but still keep it casual looking pair the look up with a pair of wedge booties like the ones from H&M pictured above. Keep your accessories just as effortless as you look do a basic nude satchel like the ASOS leather bag ($90).
Business Casual:
H M red top, $18
H M blouse, $40
TopShop pleated skirt, $64
Zara two tone pumps, $90
ASOS satchel bag, $36
H M blouse, $40
TopShop pleated skirt, $64
Zara two tone pumps, $90
ASOS satchel bag, $36
Maxi skirts are perfect to take to the office since they are quite modest...if you aren't doing a sheer maxi (make sure of that!). Pair your maxi up with a simple button down top but if you're to scared of looking to Amish (sorry Amish) take your look to new heights with a printed button down like the H&M polka dotted top. If you are doing darker top and button brighten your look my introducing playful colors. Don't go to bright since you don't want to shock the look to much but try pastel colors and light bright pieces like the Zara Two Tone Platform ($90).
Date Night:
59th Street chiffon shirt, $18
Threadsence Long skirt, $32
Forever 21 platform heels, $26
ASOS leather clutch, $36
Threadsence Long skirt, $32
Forever 21 platform heels, $26
ASOS leather clutch, $36
A sheer maxi skirt is exactly the little peek-a-boo show you can give your date. It's just enough sex appeal without giving it all away. Play with soft colors like a pink pastel skirt like the one from Threadsence ($32). Keep your button down just as light and playful, mix in lace and pastels like the Yesstyle top. Keep your accessories nude to not over bear the whole look. This look is also great for Valentines Day!
Okay so they aren't the first gals to wear button downs with maxi skirts I did rock my chambray shirt with a printed maxi skirt back in August (see the post here):
But seeing these ladies rocking the look helped encourage that it's a great way to mix up a maxi skirt and get more mileage out of your button downs.
What do you think about this look?
Cute look - you pulled it off just as well (better!) than the celebs :)

I love this! I've never tried this trend before. Great post :)

I love this look, especially with a denim shirt. I can't wait to get a maxi for summer! I always thought it could pretty much only go with a tank or tee, but this makes it a little more polished and covered up, great for a cold-ish spring day. Great tips!

Sleeveless style t-shirt, but not exactly a tank top. Essential t-shirt, just without the sleeves. The shoulder strap portion is a lot more extensive than a normal tank top. black leather jacket mens

ReplyDeleteI appreciate your efforts. Thankyou and I have never read these types of beautiful articles. Do you have any idea about the document related to the Requirements for Ukraine Tourist Visa. It is a beneficiary for all the people who are planning to visit Ukraine or other countries.
I really like your work. After covid-19 the Indian government gave grants for online tourist visas. So you need to know how much an India e visa cost.
ReplyDeleteAhaa, its nice dialogue about this piece of writing at this place at this webpage,
ReplyDeleteI have read all that, so at this time me also commenting here.
