It’s Day 19 of my 28 Days of Spring Fashion and today I’m styling a striped maxi skirt.
I will be honest and tell you I’m not a huge fan of maxi skirts. I love them on other people but for some reason when I wear them, I don’t love them.
I do get emails from you all asking if I would style a maxi skirt so here’s how I styled mine.
Denim jacket//Coral top//Maxi skirt//Sandals//
Next, I decided to style this skirt with my converse sneakers. I see women wearing them with skirts all the time so I decided to give it a try.
Chambray shirt//White tank top//Maxi Skirt//Converse sneakers//Earrings//
So here you go, one maxi skirt, styled two ways!
So I realized this morning that I counted the days wrong and my 28 Days of Spring Fashion is going to go into April for a couple of days. This does not surprise me with the way my month has gone! Ha! Can I mess anything else up?

You look cute both ways and you’ve inspired me to go out and buy one tool! Just need to find one for my 5’3″ height. I hate how long they can be…
I think both outfits are cute and maxi skirts are super comfortable.
I agree with most of the women … you look sweet in a maxi skirt but maybe try a flowing blouse instead of tying one at your waist. Just a thought, but I think you look great! I am 5’5″ and think I am too curvy to wear such a long skirt. I do love the maxi dresses… have you ever styled one of them?
I agree with what Katt said about a solid maxi with belted blouse! 🙂
Love the chambray shirt, but because I’m thick-waisted, don’t think it would look good on me to knot it in the front. Maxi-skirts are so comfortable, I love wearing them. They go with practically any type of footwear.
Thanks for being such an inspiration! Because of this blog, I have felt truly inspired to be stylish at 41, that I’m not doomed to be frumpy!
I think you might like a maxi skirt better if it was solid and not horizontal strips.
I style my solid gray maxi skirt with a knit top that has a light print. Wearing the top out and belted. Shoes are usually a wedge.
Love my wedges!
Hope you enjoyed you Sunday off.
Thank you Laura!! I didn’t post yesterday, I took the day off!!

Both outfits are adorable on you!! I did not receive my email from you yesterday
I think it could be the stripes, but I do like the skirt with the denim jacket. I’m only 5’3″ and enjoy wearing cute maxi dresses (haven’t tried a skirt yet) being petite, I’m careful with large prints when wearing a maxi and normally wear a heel or wedge with mine for height.
Cyndi, have your tried a maxi with the hi-low hem? I just bought the cutest skirt with the hi-low hem at Steinmart. It gives you the best of both worlds, ha! I plan on styling mine with a denim vest and tee shirt.
Love both styles! I usually wear my maxi skirt with some blingy flip flops and a tee on the hotter days. I like your idea with the tied chambray (or any button-up).
Very Cute Outfits! Thanks for sharing.
Love the skirt with the denim jacket and coral shirt, very cute. However, I’m 5’3″ tall and have not worn a maxi skirt or long dress. Just feel like I look frumpy in them.
like the maxi for many of the reasons already listed. they seem to be so versatile going from casual to quite dressy with just a couple of changes.
has anyone else noted that they did not receive their newsletter yesterday ??I am wondering if you have some bugs attacking your blog.
I didn’t get it either
I didn’t get mine either!
Hey ladies!!
I didn’t post yesterday, I took the day off. 🙂 So you didn’t miss anything!

I just bought my first maxi a few days ago. I am not a shorts wearer out in public so I thought a long skirt would be cool and comfortable. It’s black and white stripes and the stripes are really thin. And there is a nice wide waist band with shirring at the sides. I can’t wait to wear it!!
They are one of the most comfortable items you’ll wear!

You look adorable as always. 😉 My favorite is the coral top and denim jacket too. Looks great!!
sandals are cute too 😉 thanks Cyndi. Have blessed day 😉
Thank you so much Lisa!

Love the skirt with the coral top and Jean jacket. it looks really cute on you!
I’m with you… I like the maxi on others but not on myself. I am petite and I feel it make me look dumpy. I love both looks on you
April, I hear you! Maxi skirts can be heard to wear if you are shorter.
Blessings,
Cyndi
I vote for the outfit with the Sandals. So cute on you!
I don’t care for the chambray and coverse matchup with the maxi but sure love the other with the denim jacket and sandals. You should know that you look very cute in a maxi! Hope to see you wearing more!
