The skirt electric

The sweeping simplicity of a well-formed maxi skirt is often most perfectly balanced by an equally simple singlet or tank top. Take this street style look as example: an electric blue, floor length skirt might come off as evening wear if played up too much. But for the daytime, a simple black top and dusting of gold at the wrist stands out for the right reasons.

Of course, if you wanted to take it to the cocktail hour, all you’d really need it some statement jewellery around the neck or perhaps some equally bold makeup.
