HOW TO STYLE - The Denim Maxi Skirt

HOW TO STYLE - The Denim Maxi Skirt

Classic Comfort

When it comes to denim, most people tend to lean on the more casual side, which was my first thought exactly. Paired with a classic white tank, a cream and navy sweater, deep blue sneakers, and a matching hat, this look incorporates both the denim focal point and some neutral elements as well. A draped sweater over the shoulders adds the classic elegance any outfit needs to create a more sophisticated and appropriate look. An outfit such as this can be perfect for a simple day of running errands or grabbing lunch with a friend, along with creating a quick OOTD for Instagram

Denim-On-Denim

As if it wasn’t mentioned before, people are LOVING denim these days, making it only appropriate that a denim-on-denim look be brought to the table. Although some may desire the “perfect” color match, there is something to be said for a contrast in the wash for a look such as this. With so much going on with the apparel, simple gold accessories would elevate this look to the max. Along with this, a voluminous curl would both highlight and compliment the earrings perfectly, bringing the look together. Similarly to the others, this outfit can move from mid-day into the night, ready for simply any occasion.

In recent months, the world has seen a denim skirt revival. Being one of the primary forecasted looks to gain immense popularity this year, it still seems to be taking customers by surprise with its success. Denim skirts have seen fluctuations in popularity, but not commonly in this length. Coming in style at the perfect time, as the seasons begin to change, the skirt is certainly designed to be a staple in the wardrobe all year long. With this being said, I found myself, amongst many others, struggling with how this piece is meant to be styled. After some detailed research, I have curated a guide to some of my favorite looks this item ought to be incorporated into!

Simple Yet Stunning

In accordance with the rise in popularity of capsule wardrobes, simple looks are certainly the way to go. By throwing on a tiny top to contrast a larger jacket worn over the shoulders and some kitten heels, nothing beats simplicity. This certainly goes for a more fitted denim maxi, allowing the jacket to properly balance the symmetry of the skirt and compliment it perfectly. A slick bubble braid would be the perfect finishing touch to this effortless look that’ll surely have some heads turning. This could absolutely rock a night out with some friends and as always, would look amazing on the feed.
