STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Sheer Madness

Style Advice of the Week

The maxi dress/ skirt trend has been around for a few years but a sheer maxi is a refreshing new take on the look. This Fashionista’s maxi skirt, she just got in New York City while working fashion week, is a great wardrobe staple! Light layering with sheer accents is the perfect way to transition from the summer to fall seasons as we have seen on both F/W and S/S runways such as Marc Jacobs and BCBG Max Azria!

The sheer basic color allows for this skirt to be dressed up or down, as well as worn with shorts, a skirt, or a different maxi underneath! The possibilities are endless with this versatile piece, and the best part is that it is so easy to assemble an outfit without much thought! The classic pieces she paired with the skirt really allows it to be the focal point of her outfit! This Fashionista embraced the mixture of black and brown, as well as silver and gold in her ensemble. Her silver rings and necklace perfectly compliment the gold hardware on her belt and watch. Although not a noticeable detail from afar, the metallic mixture is the perfect finishing touch on her look.

If a maxi skirt is not your ideal sheer article of clothing no need to worry, there are plenty other reasonable ways to rock the sheer look this season. A sheer button-down also provides a great opportunity for layering. This sheer striped dress is also perfect to throw on on your way to class or can easily be dressed up with accessories for a formal event.
