The Pencil and straight skirts look
good on almost all body types and are in fact ideal for women who are slightly
heavy in the middle, provided it is layered properly. Wear them with slightly
loose shirts or tops, tucked in or otherwise.

Pair with a blazer for a formal
official look, a knitted top for informal wear and dress it up with a sequined
top and pumps for party wear....... or don a denim jacket for a casual look or look chic with a floral one............

The mermaid or fishtail is fitted
till the knees and flares below. It can be knee length or full length. It pairs
best with slightly fitted tops and T’s.
The mini is of course for the ultra
slim and can be worn over tights or leggings too. They look fab with stilettoes
or boots. Teenagers can even carry them off with sneakers.
The pleated skirt can be a bit tricky
to wear as they tend to sit around the waist and then flare till below the
knees. It can be worn with a fitted shirt or a high neck tight top in a solid
colour which should ideally be tucked in. If you are still unsure of the look,
throw on a short jacket or blazer which matches either your skirt or your top
and you will immediately get a slimming effect……………

The pleated skirt can also be worn
with any shirt which is figure hugging and not loose and the colour of the top
can be a contrast, to make the pleats stand out……….. It can also be paired with
a crop top.
The gypsy skirt is best for casual
wear, be it plain or printed. When wearing this style, complete the look with
only one printed item, be it the skirt or top. It can be a simple gypsy which
falls as a midi from the waist down or a knee length one with horizontal
panelling. The midi looks fabulous on any body type, especially with a layered
affect. Or try accessorizing with a knotted stole or a belt worn over your blazer to stand out............

The umbrella skirts are fitted till
the hips and flared below. Great to be worn with cropped tops ……. They can be
plain, printed, striped or monochrome, all of these rock in a midi length.

For winter wear, skirts can be worn
with knee length or ankle length boots and accessorized with tights, shrugs ,
stoles and blazers. This flexible piece of clothing can evolve from informal to
formal, from day to night and summer to winter wardrobe staple…… so, enjoy
experimenting and rock the look with oodles of style !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
