How to Style a Skirt

Skirts are a staple in any wardrobe and every style and length can be worn to almost any occasion with the right styling.

When it comes to how to style a mini skirt, you can't go wrong with a chunky jumper and knee-high boots for a relaxed vibe. Elevate your favourite mini for evening with a statement top and heels. A midi skirt strikes a balance between style and practicality, making it perfect for the office or a more formal event. Tuck in a blouse and add a pair of ballet pumps for a sophisticated look or opt for a fitted roll-neck jumper and kitten heels for a sleek ensemble. Maxi skirts is ideal for both casual days and dressier occasions. Dial it up with a blazer and statement jewellery or team with a flowing maxi skirt with a basic T-shirt and sandals for a breezy day look.  

Balance is key when styling skirts. Always choose a top that flatters the silhouette of the skirt. For example, if you’re wearing a pleated or A-line skirt, opt for a fitted top. If your skirt is more fitted, you may want to add volume to the upper half of your outfit. The same applies to colour. If you’re wearing a neutral skirt, like black or grey, you've more freedom to play with colour and pattern on top.   

A co-ord is a great option for a capsule wardrobe as it offers you versatility. This striking striped beach skirt is made from linen, making it the perfect addition to your warm-weather wardrobe. Pair with the matching beach top for an easy summer go-to or mix and match with other pieces from your wardrobe to maximise wearability.
