    Thanks for the video. I got a denim maxi skirt with a front slit and I think those look better with the knee high boot or cowboy boot. I do think the cropped jackets made you look taller.

Please be sure to let us tall ladies know if there is something that would not work proportionally, etc. Sometimes I'm not sure. Thank you for all your videos!

    Thank you for this video. I personally think your maxi skirt should be shorter or have the split in the front. When you pulled up the skirt, everything looked better.
    I have a maxi skirt that I have had for years that has a split in the back, but the style allows me to put split in front which REALLY helps. I'm VERY short.( 4' 10")

      Love the styling ideas which translate to other “bottoms”!!! My only negative is, seeing the skirt bunched up in the crotch area, to me that means the skirt needs to sit higher on the waist, or “the rise” is too long on the person wearing it.

    Love look#3 with short pink sweater! The loafers look great as do the sneakers or ballet flat. The light brown wrap sweater was the best, but the brownish bomber jacket was awesome also. The color of your bag and bomber jacket in the browish color looked so nice on you, especially with your hair color. Really loved the black loafers with the black top. Cropped blazer was great and I loved the autumnal color!

    I just got a denim skirt very similar to yours, but mine has the slit in the front so this was fun to watch. I found that no matter what you were pairing the skirt with, the most flattering looks were when you were wearing ankle boots, especially the pointed toe. I didn't like any of the clunky loafers, for me it made the outfits look heavy and more frumpy (and I love a good lug loafer with jeans and trousers) and I definitely did not like it at all with the socks (with the Mary Janes I got weird Wicked Witch vibes) I have seen the socks with loafers with jeans and since that is a look from my childhood I can get into that, but I didn't like it at all with the skirt. I love all your styling videos, you gave me some great ideas. I will be wearing my L.L Bean cream fisherman sweater with my skirt tomorrow 🙂

I, too, would prefer a narrower hem and the slit up the back. Can you share the link to the one you wore? Thank you!

    Have been denim skirt shopping lately, and deciding on whether to return to the maxi jean skirt that I wore during 2004-2006 with flats, boots, and a belt with the top inside the skirt. I'm plus size lady now, so I'll be very aware of what will look better with my height (5'9), and most importantly, something that lenghtenx5 my waistline as I am short waisted.

    I just thrifted a great denim skirt in a medium-wash, maxi length. I'm a tad over 5'3" and I can't decide if I should hem it. It currently lands at the bottom of my ankle bone or 1.5" from the floor. Looking for opinions from anyone on the ideal length? Another option is to hem it to midi length. Ugh! Confused.

    • @YourGuideToStyle
      @YourGuideToStyle  8 місяців тому +1

      I think you should try it on with the shoes you plan on wearing with it and see what you like the best with those. If you are 5'3" you are just an inch shorter than me. I have a maxi and a midi length. I really think it is personal preference and how you think it looks on you.

    The purses throw off these look’s because we didn’t carry big bags when this look was in style in the 90’s. The small crossover bags give the right proportion. Back then we did wear loafers but not the anklets with the long skirt. We wore pantyhose. I think these maxi denim skirts are accidents waiting to happen because we are used to walking more quickly and get tangled up in so much fabric. Trust me . Been there.

    The skrt looks really good with the fisherman knit sweater front tucked with the belt. Big no to the black boots. I think the skirt looks much better with the lighter colored boots outfits. The black boots just look frumpy to me. The moto jacket works but I don't like the look of a regular blazer with a maxi denim skirt. The cropped blazer though was very cute with the skirt.

    I was looking at the maxi denim skirts but so fearful to try them because I’m petite…thank you!! This really helped. I know it’s a trend and may not last more than another year or two but I love the look. I’m so conservative but this just brought out the hippie in me. So I’m going to jump in and keep it tailored, and make the look mine, I have a cropped faux fur that I can add on top to give it a glam look but keep my cashmere sweaters slim fitting and tucked. My clogs/and heeled boots will give it some height Again thank you.❤
