• A Denim Button-Up Shirt or a Flannel Shirt
  • Leave a few buttons at the bottom undone and try tying it at the waist.
• A Sweater
  • You might need to size down in a sweater to achieve this look so it's not too long.
• A T-Shirt
  • Try it tied at the waist. You might need to size up in a tee (to gain some length!) to achieve this look.

Finding a shirt to layer over your maxi will suddenly multiply the versatility of your dress as it now appears like a separate black maxi skirt!

5. Layer Under The Maxi Dress!

Layering under a black maxi dress is such a fun option as well!

A simple white tee or a striped tee can instantly change the look into a casual option. A crew neck tee would most likely work best, not a V-neck! Why not try a long-sleeved shirt too?

Throw on some flip flops or some sneakers and you'll have yourself a comfy on-the-go everyday look!

→Throughout this blog post, you might notice that I used quite a wide variety of shoes to style with a black maxi dress! Whether it be flip flops, open-toed heels, booties, flats, or sneakers… a black maxi dress can be matched with almost ANY pair of shoes and still look cute !

→If your maxi dress is too long to be worn with flats or sneakers, an easy tip is simply to tie a knot at the bottom !!

→Consider what type of maxi dress you might want to invest in. I own both a sleeveless dress option with a lower neckline as well as a  short sleeve option with a higher neckline.
