Maxi dresses and skirts are surprisingly versatile and can be worn a variety of ways. I may have just said the same thing in two different ways but I’m okay with that… I love a great maxi and as demonstrated here, will wear the same one time and time again. Many times I wear a dress and by layering over it, make it look like a skirt but it’s easy to create a maxi skirt from an old maxi dress that’s maybe too short to wear with heels or with a bodice that isn’t up to par. A few of the maxi skirts you see here, if not all of them, were once dresses that I altered into skirts {i.e. the photos above}. While maxi’s oftentimes have a very Bohemian or Boho Chic feel, styling and accessorizing can really change the look of the ensemble as a whole and lend itself to a multitude of “styles”.
Apologies for the photo overload but here are my maxi dresses and skirts and how I’ve worn and reworn them in various ways over the last 4 years. Each photo links to the original post where you can see more photos and get the outfit details.

Thank you! You’re timing of this post could not be more perfect. I am leaving on a girl’s trip to NYC and bought two maxi skirts and could not get the right look together. You’re a genius, thanks for the tips and for always sharing your style.
