The only thing better than a maxi skirt is a mermaid maxi skirt! I could hardly contain my excitement when I laid eyes on this stunner at Current Clothing! Whether you are a bride-to-be, festival junkie, or simply chic, this maxi skirt deserves a special spot in your closet. The princess seams guarantee you a swoon-worthy fit, while the subtle chevron print ups its versatility. With the right additions, this skirt can easily go from noon to five. For a daytime affair, pair this beauty with a cropped off-the-shoulder top, a jean jacket, and a side braid.

With a cocktail party in Las Vegas coming up, I chose the latter, and styled this mermaid skirt for the evening. To compliment the shapely lower half, I paired it with a feminine structured top. Although a classic black or white would have worked, I took advantage of the opportunity to add a pop of color by incorporating this magenta peplum top into the mix. I know I always say to keep the accessories to a minimum when you are working with a statement piece, but when it comes to Vegas, the bigger the better! That is why I chosen a very gaudy pearl necklace.

When I laid eyes on this structured skirt at Marmalade Boutique, I had to have it…I’m not good at resisting unique statement pieces! I loved the fit and flare silhouette and the exposed zipper down the back. Hitting right above the belly button, I decided to pair this skirt with a solid crop top. I went with a plunging neckline to break things up a bit, but a boat neck or off-the-shoulder neckline would work as well. For the shoes, I went with a pair of white laser cut high-heel sandals, though a pair of black pumps or ankle strap sandals would of been adequate. I didn’t want to overdo it with accessories, so I simply wore a pair of silver glitzy earrings, and a rhinestone necklace and ring. To add a little edge, I carried my ombré faux crystal BCBG clutch – the perfect accessory for black and white or black and gray outfits.
