As the winter season starts to fade into spring and the thought of taking our legs out of hibernation is on our minds, we are reminded of all of those adorable miniskirts hanging in our closet. Sequins, graphic prints, suede, and denim to name a few - whatever your style; there's surely a miniskirt out there to spice up your spring wardrobe. Follow my how-to guide on styling a miniskirt and cue those legs for days.
Weekend Festivities
Showcase your boho chic side and attend a local farmers market, fair, or brewery. This is the perfect occasion to flaunt that vintage inspired miniskirt you have been hoarding in your closet! Both comfy and fashionable - dress to impress with this cute boho look. I started by pairing an adorable flowy miniskirt with a casual white fitted top (both from TJ-Maxx), followed by a simple burgundy fedora from Express, and my favorite gladiator sandals from Von Maur. This trendsetting outfit isn't just comfortable - It's sure to get you noticed.
Date-Night
Picking the perfect date-night outfit can be stressful! You want something that looks amazing, yet effortless. Whether it's your first, second, or hundredth date, a miniskirt is the perfect option. When choosing your outfit (especially on the first date) keep in mind that you don't want to reveal ALL of your best features at one time. You want to leave a little to his/her imagination. This is especially handy when styling a miniskirt. For this date-night outfit, I decided to wear a matching miniskirt set from Von Maur. Not only does it eliminate the stress of coordinating the perfect outfit, it also assures you that your top and bottom compliment each other. I am loving the colorful floral pattern on this set as well as the hemline of this high waisted skirt and matching high neck crop top! Just throw on a simple pair of nude heels with some bright pink lipstick and you're date-night ready!
Girls Night Out
Who doesn't love to get fancy and spend a night on the town with their best friends?! I know I do and sequins are my go-to outfit! I love pairing my sequin minis with simple tops so it doesn't take the focus away from my skirt. For this look, I paired a black off-the-shoulder crop top from Express, with this adorable multi-colored miniskirt from Francescas. For my shoes, I chose a cute but comfy pair of black heels then topped my outfit off with a pair of simple earrings. This outfit will be sure to get you all of the compliments while you're out dancing the night away with your girls! Just a reminder Dolls - It doesn't have to be New Years Eve to bust out your sparkly skirts!
Rise and Grind
Who says boss-babes can't wear miniskirts? Whether it's a day at the office or a quick lunch date with a client, there are simple ways to transform your miniskirt from risqué to professional. Begin by making sure that your hemline isn't too short. If you're constantly pulling your skirt down, it's probably not "office appropriate". Secondly, avoid sequins and overly bold prints. You can still have fun with colors without drawing negative attention to your outfit. My idea of the perfect office look is this black bandage miniskirt, paired with my favorite button-up, snakeskin-print blouse, polished off with this simple skinny belt (all from Express). Not only is this outfit chic, but it exudes confidence.
Casual - On the Go
You don't need a special occasion to wear a miniskirt. Maybe you are going to run a few errands, get brunch with the girls, or spend the day shopping at your favorite boutiques; regardless of your to-do list, a casual miniskirt look is a great #ootd. For this outfit, I paired a suede A-line miniskirt from Von Maur with a simple cut out Express tee (that I tied in the front to give a slightly tighter fit) and slipped on a pair of sandals. Not only is this outfit casual and cute - it's also extremely comfortable!
Confidence is Key
Dolls, keep in mind that you don't have to be a certain size to wear a miniskirt. You can be petite, tall, size small, or size extra large, but most importantly, feeling confident in your own skin is your best accessory! Feel glamorous in your miniskirt and get out there to strut your stuff!!!
XOXO, Ash
