Inspiration : Maxi Skirts


From Mad Men to Louis Vuitton to the waists of style bloggers, maxi skirts have been appearing everywhere. Their casual elegance and ability to be dressed up or down makes them a perfect item for the transition from summer to autumn. My favourite is the brightly coloured ethnic one featured on natalie off duty's blog (centre).

These maxi skirts are GORGEOUS! I'm very short (five feet) and rarely get to have the maxi experience. Sigh. I would be in seventh heaven if I could find a maxi dress or skirt in my length...cutting them just seems so cruel. Hehe. :P

I love these looks! For some reason I really like maxi dresses on me but not maxi skirts. I might have to give them another try!

I'm not sure whether to buy one or not. Somehow they look cool on other people, but I don't see myself wearing one!

I absolutely loved LV's fall show. Wish he could have kept the aesthetic for spring! Maxi skirts are great! Sexy, but not in a show-all-my-skin kind of way.
