The wear-everywhere winner
Shorter than a maxi but longer than a mini, the in-between midi skirt is the missing piece in every capsule wardrobe (and is easier to style than you think).
Style with everyday staples on off-duty days – think minimal T-shirts, a lightweight shacket and comfy trainers. Or lean into a smarter look with a classic shirt and loafers, complete with light-catching jewellery to take from day to night.
Want more inspiration? Read up on how to style midi skirts and the best midi skirts for every plan in the diary. Whatever the occasion, we have an array of midi skirt outfit ideas to make getting dressed easy.

Tops to wear with midi skirts
Midi skirts might require a little more thought compared to a one-and-done dress, but with a wide array of top and T-shirt styles to choose from, you have endless styling options for every occasion, weather and mood.
Take the stress out of sunny outings by pairing midi skirts with an everyday T-shirt or cami top. On chillier evenings, keep a snug knit on hand for extra cosiness – we love doing a French tuck (half in, half out) to elevate midi skirt outfits and minimise any bulk. Got a fancy event coming up? Swap in a blouse to dial up the dressiness.
If you’re still not sure what tops to wear with midi skirts, consider the silhouette you want to create. Fitted tops are a great option, or a cropped bomber jacket for balance (and warmth) on more casual days.

The best shoes and boots to wear with midi skirts
Don’t let shoes be an afterthought – despite being the last thing you put on, a good pair can maximise impact (and compliments) if styled in the right way with your midi skirt. Simply switch up depending on the mood, and season, you’re in.
In warmer climes, casual trainers and sandals are a must for comfort, whilst ankle and knee-high boots are a fail-safe choice when the mercury drops. Still not sure which boots to wear with midi skirts? A pair of on-trend Western boots always look good.
Alternatively, nail a polished and put-together look with loafers, or consider ballet flats for an understated (yet chic) feel. Got after-dark dancing on the agenda? Slip into heels to elevate your midi skirt for evening.
