This might be a dumb question but can I wear a top with a maxi skirt for a black tie wedding?

You can if it's a formal fabric and like a ballgown sillhouette. I wouldn't do a normal maxi skirt though.

Thanks! These look amazing!

Only if combined they look like a seamless gown. Otherwise not appropriate for black tie

Got it, thanks for clarifying!

Sounds casual to me unless the “‘maxi skirt” is made out of cocktail dress fabric or something I’d say no

Yes its a more formal long skirt. I just didn't want to buy a new outfit for a wedding lol

I would very much say no. You'd definitely get shade thrown at you if you could tell at all that it wasn't a seamless dress

Ugh that sucks though. Now I have to get a dress

Rate this outfit. It will work well on warm skin tones, rectangle, inverted triangle and apple shapes, and ofc hourglass figures. If you’re petite, wear 2-3” heel boots. The sweater is to be worn French-tucked.
