I am here to show you outfits that go with maxi skirts. With these 21 ideas, you’ll be able to find items that complement the silhouette of the skirt and help you transition between seasons. While maxi skirts are more unique than their counterparts in formal wear, it doesn’t mean that you can’t wear them to formal occasions—all it takes is a little bit of confidence.
Outfits That Go With Maxi Skirts
The hardest part is usually deciding what clothes to wear with your new maxi skirt. Luckily we’ve compiled this definitive list of what tops you’ll want to wear with your new maxi skirt.
1. Camisoles: Camisoles are a very versatile piece of clothing that can be worn with basically anything! Throw on a denim jacket, and you have an outfit for spending the day at the park or beach. Wear it to casual meetings, and look great at school or work!
2. Cardigans: Maxi-skirts are great for layering in the winter, but they don’t provide enough warmth to keep you warm in the cold months. Pair your maxi skirt with a cardigan to look stylish and stay warm!
3. Crop Tops: Crop tops are perfect for adding outfit diversity to your wardrobe. But they’re a bit more difficult to wear with maxi skirts, so watch out!
4. Jackets: You can never go wrong with jackets! You can wear leather jackets, denim jackets, denim vests–the options are endless!
5. Ankle Boots: Ankle boots are a classic that never goes out of style, so they’re the perfect item to pair with maxi skirts. Since they’re lower than your ankles, they go well with skirts, but also make a nice change of pace if you normally wear heels. Ankle boots are also more versatile than most outfits in terms of their availability and their ability to be dressed up or down. If you’re in dire need of an outfit for a party, try wearing an ankle boot with your maxi skirt as an alternative to heels.
6. Embellished Tops: If maxi skirts and tops are usually your go-to options for an outfit, then why not add a little flair to your clothing? Great options to accentuate with maxi skirts (if they are neutral solid colored) include embellished tops. These are quilted or knit shirts, featuring ruffles, patterns, or other embellishments.

Wear heels with it. It’s still a skirt, so don’t add more unnecessary elements to it (other than the extra skirt and shoes). Try pairing it with loafers or closed-toe shoes; in this case, women who are petite in height will have an easier time matching their heel height with their skirt length.
Wear them with sandals: I’ve seen a few of these and they don’t look too bad. My issue is that sandals tend to be open-toed and so you really do need to make sure you get the right length skirt. But if you go for something that is a little bit different then this could be something you really enjoy wearing.
Wear them with flat shoes: This is the one I usually go for, and although it’s not the most exciting option out there, it looks okay and definitely doesn’t ruin your feet by walking around all day in stilettos or wearing out your shoes as heels do.
Conclusion
Maxi-skirts are the perfect piece of clothing for any season, event, or occasion. You can pair them with a simple tee shirt and sneakers for running errands on the weekend, or with an elegant blouse and heels for a date night out. With so many options available to you it’s hard not to find the perfect combination!

My go to outfits are maxi skirts worn with a Cami and one of my jean jackets (I own many) My look is either dressed up or casual. I love ankle boots/knee high boots when dressing up and wear my Birkenstocks or flats when I want to go casual. If you own maxi skirts & a few jean jackets, it's easy to get ready fast!

Maxi skirts are a stunning style statement that will turn heads without much effort. They look no less than chic and trendy, despite the fact that they may be a little long or too wide.

let me say what an awesome guide this is! I am currently in college and have really wanted to experiment with different types of clothes. When I saw a maxi skirt, I was so excited to see how this could be "outfitted". I love wearing them and experimenting with the clothes that go with them because they are truly versatile.
