If you're going for a bohemian or chic look, maxi dresses and skirts are perfect for you.
They normally are made with light fabric, making them perfect for the end of summer and early fall weather.
It's all about the accessories that can make your outfit versatile.
A plain black maxi dress or skirt is a classic that can never go wrong. Black goes with almost every accessory you own. I recommend turquoise and/or gold, because both colors will pop against the black.
Other solid color maxi dresses are easy to pair with layers; like an unbuttoned denim shirt or light sweater for example. You can combine plain colored maxi skirts with tank tops, crop tops, or even a trendy graphic tees to give your outfit an edgier look. Some of my friends have added short booties to enhance the edgy vibe.
If you want to go beyond the solid colors, printed patterns are always one to catch the eye. These are easy to wear without anything over them, simply because the pattern does all the talking for you. Make sure you keep accessories minimal with these or you might look like you are headed to the prom. Go-to's for a patterned maxi are plain wedges and a matching handbag. Maxi skirts are a little bit harder to find in printed patterns, but no worries because a printed top with a solid skirt can look great as well. I recommend heading to Forever 21 or H&M. In late summer and early fall the racks will be full of them.
Maxis are easy and flowy, giving you a graceful look. Other places to find them are Target, TJ Maxx, or a more high end place like Nordstrom. For taller girls, wearing maxis with flat sandals can still make your body look great!
Maxis are a great transition from summer into fall so make sure to fill your closet.
