Frequent Flyer – Maxi Skirts

Another week, another frequent flyer post. This time I’m highlighting the maxi skirts I basically live in. I would guess I wear one of the several skirts I own at least weekly, if not more.

For me, maxi skirts are the go-to item when I’m looking for dressy comfort. I’ll opt for a maxi skirt on school days when I am too tired to give much thought to my outfit or on the weekends when it’s lazy comfort I’m after. A maxi is more comfortable than even the most relaxing jeans in my closet.

A maxi travels well too. It’s very easy to roll this baby up and throw it in my luggage. There’s no need to iron it or worry about what it will look like when I arrive at my destination. For the last several trips I’ve taken at least one maxi skirt with me. The black is usually my go-to option, but the black and white patterned one (shown below) is also a frequent flyer – literally in my luggage.

Not only is a maxi skirt great for the warmer months, it works for the cold months too. Paired with a fitted sweater and a scarf, like the above, or layered with a long-sleeved jacket, like below. this maxi is simple and elegant.

The saddest part about this skirt is the fact that I wear it so often I can tell it is beginning to wear thin. I need to check and see if Ann Taylor LOFT has a new version of this skirt for sale now. I bought it more than a year ago, so here’s hoping the company has updated with a newer model with the same great style.

Stepping away from the black maxi skirt, the patterned one below has gotten a lot of play in my wardrobe this winter. And even with the intricate design, I’ve found it very easy to pair this with a number of the items in my closet.

Do you have a maxi skirt that is a frequent flyer in your outfit construction? What makes you love this item?
