Maxi Casual

Denim Jacket: Forever 21; Maxi Skirt: Forever 21; Black Heels: Nine West; Sunnies: H&M; Clutch: ?

I love skirts of all lengths from mini, to midi to maxi. For some reason, I don't think to wear longer skirts in the winter, but now that spring is here, I'm happy to wear them again. I don't believe in the rule that just because you are short means that you should not wear maxi skirts or dresses. Maxi skirts were my skirt length of choice during high school. I'm still happy to wear them occasionally as an adult.

As long as a maxi skirt is worn with heels, I think they work just fine for short ladies too.

For those that follow style rules, it's okay to bend (or break) them once in while.

You look fabulous in this maxi and I'm drooling over that clutch!
