I think the maxi looks comfortable and totally works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261932 Tue, 27 May 2014 12:03:28 +0000 Janet 1261932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I understand it not feeling quite right, but you look great. </p> <p>I am occasionally attracted to maxis but find them less appealing in practice than in theory -- good thing I never heavily invested in them. I'm thinking about chopping one I have down to midi or high-low midi length. I think I'd wear it more that way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261914 Tue, 27 May 2014 11:38:30 +0000 crutcher 1261914@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your Saint James made me immediately smile...Great pairing with the maxi...<br />I found your travel photos stark and lovely...The LaCrosse grain storage is probably not Wisconsin...looked too plainy for that far east...right?,,,Perfect look... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261889 Tue, 27 May 2014 10:56:03 +0000 lyn67 1261889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a gorgeous maxi outfit, and a great combo of high and low end! All&nbsp;your items are&nbsp;fab&nbsp;&nbsp;but I (for my older&nbsp;self&nbsp;at least:-))&nbsp;would leave out the neon acrylic bib for a matter. I guess for me the high neckline&nbsp;AND&nbsp;&nbsp;the stripes would be enough of interest&nbsp;on the upper half. Great sunnies and bag, too!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261880 Tue, 27 May 2014 10:17:49 +0000 Karie 1261880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the maxi but I understand the feeling of something not feeling like "you." In fact, the last time I wore my black maxi skirt it didn't feel like "me," which was odd to me because it did last year. Try a few different stylings with it, and see if that feeling changes.&nbsp;&nbsp;If not then yes, chalk it up to a cheap experiment and pass it on! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261811 Tue, 27 May 2014 04:41:46 +0000 Catnip 1261811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the outfit!&nbsp; Great glasses!&nbsp; And I love the photos.&nbsp; These were taken in middle or western Washington State, weren't they? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261798 Tue, 27 May 2014 03:44:58 +0000 Gigi 1261798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was wondering where the leather top was, as you mentioned that being the reason you bought the maxi in the first place, if I remember. Glad to know that you will still pair the two. I hope you will post pix when you do!</p> <p>You look nice, although it is quite a bit "softer" than your usual outfits. I think it's because of what Rabbit pointed out: your style usually is more angular.&nbsp;I love maxis for their comfort and also for when I want to feel a bit elegant. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261791 Tue, 27 May 2014 03:31:44 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1261791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a cool outfit; the skirt does look like a departure for you, but you have made the look your own. Like Rabbit, I'm taken with the idea of wearing laceup shoes with a maxi. But after reading your comment, I'm wondering if the outfit would feel more like your style if you wore boots, booties, high-top sneakers, something along those lines? Too predictable? </p> <p>Oh, yeah, and your photos really make me long for a road trip!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261788 Tue, 27 May 2014 03:24:13 +0000 rabbit 1261788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really love the pairing of citron/green, white, and turquoise in this outfit. <br />&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />The maxi is interesting, I usually associate your style with architecture and structured shapes, and the drape of the maxi is a different feeling. &nbsp;I think trying it with the top you describe could work well, especially with shoes that provided a structured counterpoint at the bottom. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; But I'm intrigued by the idea of&nbsp;pairing a maxi with oxford-like shoes, &nbsp;I want to try that. &nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261762 Tue, 27 May 2014 02:28:00 +0000 Jaime 1261762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific but I don't think it is because of the maxi but despite it. Love the scenery shots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261760 Tue, 27 May 2014 02:22:47 +0000 Sara L. 1261760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look! &nbsp;But I understand how something can look good yet not feel "you". &nbsp;I hope that you try some more combos before getting rid of it because I'll enjoy seeing what you come up with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261754 Tue, 27 May 2014 02:12:19 +0000 carter 1261754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this on you!

Keep it around for sure. Looking forward to seeing more fun Anna combos with it. I bought my first black maxi dress this year for vacation. Might try to play around with it at home for some skirt-look combos. It's never really been my thing either, but fun to try, and you really look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261746 Tue, 27 May 2014 01:51:34 +0000 kellygirl 1261746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fun to see you in a maxi! Cool outfit too. Gorgeous photography! What a treat for the eyes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261736 Tue, 27 May 2014 01:17:15 +0000 shiny 1261736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF and I agree with Joy - reminds me of Kansas, except more green.</p> <p>Now I have maxi skirt envy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261731 Tue, 27 May 2014 01:05:59 +0000 annagybe 1261731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I'm going to try one more outfit with this skirt&nbsp;with my leather tank. This did not feel like me. It felt like a skirt version of yoga pants. I don't even wear yoga pants to work out in. Luckily it was a cheap experiment. I will say that it may fit a niche for al fresco dining in Seattle when it's in the mid sixties and there's a breeze.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261712 Tue, 27 May 2014 00:42:25 +0000 JG 1261712@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that this fab outfit incorporates a $15 skirt! My $12 black maxi from TJ Maxx only leaves the house when the neighborhood thrift store has a big sale. The store doesn't have dressing rooms so the maxi is a wearable curtain while I pull on pants or a skirt underneath. I always hope that nobody I know sees me, even though there are usually several women who don't care who sees their undies. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261698 Tue, 27 May 2014 00:24:07 +0000 TraceyLiz65 1261698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And another one tries a maxi skirt! Must say this is a delightful surprise coming from you!&nbsp;&nbsp; Love it and hope you had a wonderful day!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261573 Mon, 26 May 2014 20:53:48 +0000 Mellllls 1261573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like your longer hair. I like the skirt...I'd prefer a more light shoe. The rest of your outfit is nice too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261570 Mon, 26 May 2014 20:50:43 +0000 Mona 1261570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How fun is it to go out with a fellow YLFer!

The maxi skirt gives the look of wide legged flowy trousers in 2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261508 Mon, 26 May 2014 18:55:28 +0000 MsMary 1261508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow!&nbsp; Those landscape photos are just fab!&nbsp; And your outfit is fab, too!&nbsp; Have a wonderful time with Jenava! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261506 Mon, 26 May 2014 18:54:20 +0000 Mo 1261506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For some reason, I never thought I'd see you in a casual maxi. &nbsp;I love it! &nbsp;comfy, huh? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-526-maxi-skirt-casual-version#post-1261501 Mon, 26 May 2014 18:46:06 +0000 annagybe 1261501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Avert your eyes, Angie.</p> <p>So this is the maxi skirt I got for $15 at Costco.
