Editor's Notes
April 15, 2020:
I enjoy wearing maxi skirts, however, I have personally experienced the frustration of purchasing an option and realizing it is way too long for my short stature. A lot of these options may be too long or too short for you if you desire a very specific length. It may be wise to invest in a sewing machine and sewing kit to do your own alterations. There are many resources online to teach you how to properly cut and hem your own clothing. If you haven't the time, find your local tailor or a generous family member.
If you enjoy modern options, the Uskees Jessica Long Denim Skirt and Meraki Rib Maxi Skirt are my personal favorites as they are very stylish, sleek, and can easily be paired with almost any shirt or blouse. However, the Uskees is a bit constricting to walk in since the short back slit limits your range of leg motion. If you want to show off a loud and fun style, the Catalog Classics Peasant Skirt and the Sakkas Asma are great, colorful choices to wear on occasions like beach parties or just casual strolls through the park.
Be sure to read the washing directions on the products you purchase, since some have very specific instructions. If done incorrectly, it can damage the integrity of the piece.
