Let's Skate!

Hey guys!

As the weather is getting warmer, I'm preparing myself to wear a whole lot of skirts and shorts without having to wear tights. The skirt most talked about the past year was the skater skirt (or circle skirt) which is basically an A-line pleated relatively short skirt. What's not to love about that? They are so flattering! And for those of you who have a tiny waist and a curvy bottom, these skirts accentuate your waist.

I personally have two of these skirts: a taupe and a black one because I find that they are the most versatile colours. These are some ideas of how I would style them.


I personally love the look of a skater skirt with a crop top. I chose this Boy London top which balances out the feminine touch of the skirt. To toughen up the look I added a denim vest and some plain black creepers. I recently bought this gunmetal necklace and I'm obsessed with it (buy it here, it's on sale!) because it goes with almost anything. And to finish the outfit, I chose this brown backpack. 




What's spring without some sneakers! I decided I should create a look with some Vans and here it is! I chose a plain black top with some round sunglasses to get into the summer feel. As this outfit is pretty casual and relaxed, I added a fringed leather hobo bag to add some texture and make the outfit more interesting. 



For this look I decided to go for an all-black-bottom-half. Even though it's getting warmer, I'm still wearing winter colours and you can never go wrong with black. To add some colour, I chose this dark red top (which I bought yesterday: buy here) and a khaki satchel so that I stay on the winter colour scheme. 

How would you wear a skater skirt?
