This fall, think about swapping your skinny jeans for a maxi skirt. A cozy sweater looks just perfect with a brown maxi skirt and a leather bag.
On those super chilly days, you can add layers over the sweater to stay warm and fashionable. You could top it with a trench, a leather jacket, a coat, or even faux fur. In 2015, layering is everything.

The grey color of this skirt goes so beautifully with a washed-out denim shirt. Here’s a little tip: wear your maxi skirt at your waist if you happen to be short.

Dress up your red maxi with a grey tee, a beige faux fur piece, and an oversized clutch. A simple V-neck tee looks cool and fresh when it’s tucked into a maxi.
