Wondering how to wear a midi skirt without looking super girly? Ashley has got it spot on. Roughen up pretty pleats and satin finishes with a leather-look jacket, slogan tee and animal print boots. Can an outfit get any cooler?

3. The Super-Cute Look

How to style skirts in summer? Go for a co-ord in sunshine-mimicking shades and pair with contrasting accessories for an outfit that will grab everyone’s attention. Choosing what to wear with a mini skirt can be tricky but if it comes with a matching top, the hard work’s done for you.

4. The Tonal Look

Olivia Palermo knows just how to style midis for those office-to-out occasions. A satin skirt and heels are always a great option for evening but throw on a lightweight scarf and blazer and you’ve got yourself a look that also means business.

5. The Monochrome Look

Choosing how to style a maxi skirt always feels harder than its shorter counterparts but a floral number can do no wrong. This monochrome outfit is the perfect solution to those ‘what to wear with a maxi skirt in summer’ dilemmas. Alternativity, if you’re still stuck on what to wear with long skirts in summer, go for a cami.

6. The Dressy-Yet-Casual look

Ways to wear a wrap skirt are endless but we’re loving this outfit. The logo tee gives a casual touch whilst the stilettos and earrings take it up a notch for a look that’s, well, seriously balanced. Evening drinks? This is the perfect outfit for it.

7. The Keep-It-Simple Look

What to wear with a black skirt when the weather’s a bit nippy? A cosy knit and converse for an outfit that screams ‘I haven’t even tried’. When the weather’s warmer, swap your jumper for a cami and your trainers for sandals. Plus, a black skirt goes with every top.

8. The Off-Duty Model Look

So, you’ve got plans, you’ve half chosen the outfit (the skirt) but you have no idea what to wear with it. Well, Kaia has the answer – with a blazer, bralette and chunky boots. It’s the model off-duty outfit we can’t get enough of.

9. The Beautifully-Bold Look

There are so many ways to wear a pencil skirt casually but one of our favourites is pairing it with a crop top and trainers. Then, when it needs dressing up, just take it up a notch with a blazer and heels. Even better, go for a tonal look. We’re loving this all-green-everything one.

10. The Girl-Boss Look

The ultimate girl boss outfit? A faux croc pencil skirt, relaxed shirt and stilettos. Oh, and not forgetting cat-eye sunnies for extra oomph. If you’re looking for an outfit for work and beyond, this one ticks all the boxes.
