Sheer skirts and see-through maxis had a major moment this season.

I found this dress on sale for $10 at Urban Outfitters last week, and I couldn’t image tucking it into the back of my closet until next spring! Fortunately, with a few simple styling tricks, these floor-sweeping frocks are here to stay as we head through fall into winter.

Wearing: Urban Outfitters dress, Forever21 blazer, Tory Burch Reva flats, Ray-Ban aviators
So as long as rain isn’t threatening from the sky and snow isn’t coating the ground, the maxi has gone (nearly) seasonless in my book. The key to styling these longer-in-length dresses during cooler temperatures is to counter-act the dramatic impact with a less feminine accent… and a warm one, at that! 
If you’re up for trying this trend, here are two (more) of my favorite style ideas: You can’t go wrong with slouchy boots and a knitted caridgan, or black booties and a leather aviator jacket. 
ASOS dress, Topshop jacket, Maje clutch, Jeffrey Campbell shoes, Modcloth ring

    Thanks for finally posting about this! I've worn my cream maxi a couple times with chunky wooden-heeled pumps, a lace cami, and TONS of pearls. Excited to try the chunky androgynous sweater with it now!
