For the seasoned fashion gal, (ahem, I mean you all of my blogger friends) wearing a midi skirt is no big deal. However, I can’t tell you how many ladies (close friends) I’ve heard use the term school uniform when they are faced with a midi length skirt. When I see a midi skirt, I see glamour, modesty and a beautiful ladylike silhouette. So, in an effort to convert some ladies to the midi side, here is a simple formula for rocking one without feeling like you should be packing up your books.

1. Start with your midi, of course. Doesn’t matter whether it’s pleated, full or bright, just make sure it hits you about mid shin or if you’re short like me, a little above or below your knee. A trip to the tailor may be in order to get the perfect length.
2. Pick your top. Most midi skirts are worn at your waist, which makes them perfect for crop tops. You can also wear a pretty blouse or a simple tee tucked in. When picking your top, keep in mind the skirt, if it is super full, grab a close fitting top. If the skirt is bright, tone it down with a neutral top.
3. Footwear is up to the individual, but if you’re short like me, you will want something that will give you some height. If you’re rocking super long gams, you may be able to pull off a midi with flats, but for the shorties, grab a pair of heels to elongate your legs.
4. Ice your cake, or in other words, accessorize! A pretty necklace, earrings, a belt, the possibilities are endless.
For all my blogger friends, feel free to share your tips too!
