Skirts are feeling fun and fresh this spring after a long winter of bundling up! If you’re one of the many women who struggles to find shorts you feel comfortable in, give a skirt a try this spring and summer. The stand out shape we’re seeing this spring is the skater skirt (aka. full skirt). It’s a shorter length, with a full shape, which does wonders for the figure! It sits at your natural waist and looks great with a blouse tucked in to show off and flatter your curves. It naturally hits at the smallest part of your waist, then flares from there, so it’s a great piece to show off what you want and hide what you dont! You’ll find options in bright color, prints, lace, and leather just to name a few.
The Basics: A cotton version with an elastic waistband is super comfortable yet chic at the same time. Tuck in a slouchy tee or tank, throw on some metallic sandals and a necklace and your casual look is effortless yet pulled together. (hint: a great place to try print mixing with a striped skirt! think polka dot blouse, or floral print bag or shoes!)
At the Office: Give your suit and black pants a break and go for a pretty spring print. Pair with a lightweight spring blazer (this one is in linen) and a simple neutral lace tank. Toss the blazer and add some great shoes for a girls night out look.
Night Out: Try the skirt in one of spring’s colorful hues. Pastels looks great off graphic black and white!
