Green Maxi Skirt Outfits

I always find it interesting how you see a piece of clothing on a model, and you either like it or not, then you see in on a “real person” and you like it better and then you try it for yourself and you either do like it or not. It is definitely a hit and miss especially when you are shipping online and cannot try clothes till after you have paid for them. While I have not been successful much with finding dresses online that fit me well (I have had some good laughs with some things from Amazon), I was pretty successful with my skirts from SheIn (3 out of 4 were winners). Many of you have seen this skirt on my Instagram and also when I share it in a couple of my posts. Because I love the color and the cut of this skirt so much, I wanted to share a few outfits with it. None of these outfits are earth shattering in their concepts but they do show the awesomeness of having different kinds of denim jackets!

Green and Navy

This bench and background are such a nice setting for pictures! In the past I do not think I would have thought of pairing navy with green but navy is such a great neutral that it really matches well with a variety of colors. I have seen several bloggers using this combination and that is how this outfit was born. Since the weather is still fairly mild, adding my navy 3/4 sleeves jacket was a no brainer and I like the structure it give to the outfit. My sandals are my Madewell sandals that I have in black and cognac. They are less than $30 at Nordstrom rack and I have found them to be comfortable and very versatile: they work with jeans of course and look cute even with joggers!

You might have noticed my cute new crossbody purse! I am justifying this purchase because I donated a good 4 to 5 handbags in the past 6 months. I have found that I am now drawn to structured crossbody bags and do not reach much for others. I first saw this purse with the bee strap one of Megan’s Honey We’re Home Amazon hauls and really liked it. It wasn’t until last week when I saw the purse again on another blog that I decided which color would make sense for me. The bee strap actually costs a couple dollars more than the purse but adds such a fun twist to the purse that I decided it was worth it.

Here is a close up: I was having fun being creative!

Green and White

This is the ouftit you probably have seen if you read my blog or follow me on Instagram. I told you that bench is a great spot for pictures.

Of course, white was an easy choice and the leopard adds a fun pattern mix in a understated way.

Green and Blue Denim

Last is the skirt with a regular denim jacket. It was still cool when I wore this outfit so I am wearing booties. This goes to show you that a springy skirt can be worn at different times of the year. If I remember correctly, I am wearing a long tee under the jacket.

Not portrayed would be wearing the skirt with a graphic tee: I plan to wear it with a black graphic next. It think it would be also cute with a blush tee. This is when you know that a purchase was a good purchase: you keep coming up with outfit ideas for it!

A bientôt!
