Long Skirts Make For Great Statement Pieces, So Here’s How To Style Them With Your Wardrobe This Summer
Now that springtime is here, and we’re about to transition into our summer wardrobes, many of us are busting out our favorite skirts.
This is the perfect time of year to wear all kinds of skirts and let them become a statement piece for our outfits.
While a lot of fashionistas are embracing and talking about mini and short skirts, likely due to Y2K trends and ‘tenniscore’ filling our social media feeds, there’s still a lot of fun to be had with long skirts.
If you have some pretty long or maxi skirts that have been waiting to see the light of day, here are some ways you can style them into your daily outfits.
With a form-fitting bodysuit
If you’re tired of wearing your favorite body suits with jeans and shorts, try pairing them with a long skirt.
When you combine a bodysuit and a long skirt that complement each other in color and material, it’s almost like designing your own maxi dress. Add a pair of comfortable sandals, and you’ve got a simple yet effective spring outfit.
With a t-shirt and boots
When people think of long skirts, they often think of extra feminine and delicate outfits. However, long skirts can certainly be dressed down and worn with things you’d usually wear with a pair of jeans.

Next time you don’t know what to wear with your long skirt, tuck in a white t-shirt and put on some cool combat boots to add some toughness to your look.
With a button-down shirt and heeled boots
If you want your long skirt to look more formal, wear a button-down shirt! You can tuck it into the skirt and then put on a belt to emphasize your waist and create a silhouette.
Then, throw on a cool and chic pair of heeled boots, and you’re good to go.
With a strapless top and layered necklaces
This is a great outfit idea if you want to wear your long skirt on a hot day. Put on a neutral, strapless shirt, tuck it into your long skirt, and then strategically layer some pretty necklaces so the outfit doesn’t seem too plain.
Wear this combination with a killer pair of sunglasses and sneakers or sandals, and you’ll get a lot of compliments.
Again, long skirts are a fabulous thing to wear when it starts getting warm outside, so take advantage of the season and play around with what you’ve got!
