Skirts have been a personal favorite for as long as I can remember. These delicate, flowy, and lovely pieces make your outfits look absolutely stunning. As Spring and Summer approach, these striped skirts will be an excellent addition to your wardrobe, complementing your simple button-ups and tops.
Don’t be afraid of patterns; these striped skirts are a great way to transform your outfits. We take you through the different ways you can wear and style your striped skirt, perhaps with something already available in your closet too!
Striped skirts are both stylish and colorful. Don’t be afraid to wear a striped skirt because these colors can make your outfits stand out and turn heads. These striped skirts are ideal for the summer months when you don’t want to wear fitted denim and prefer something flowy and breathable instead.
Whether it’s a fitted, flowy, midi, short, or long skirt, all you need to put together an outfit is, a top in one of the skirt’s colors. Heels are a must-have with these skirts to elongate your legs. Add jewelry, shoulder bags, and possibly bandanas and hair bands.
Styling Tips
- It’s not usually a good idea to mix patterns with striped skirts. Wear a solid top with your skirts to draw attention to the skirts.
- Striped pencil skirts look more formal, while flowy long skirts are great for day events such as a baby shower, brunch, birthday or garden party.
- Choose the style and color of the skirt according to the event you are going to. Too colorful would not be an appropriate look for work, however subtle colors would look boring for a summer day or an outfit for your vacation.
- Heels, or wedges are a must with skirts. If you are lucky enough to be tall or simply running an errand in a casual striped skirt you can get away with sneakers or ballet flats.
- Having the right fitting for a skirt is a must, however if it is a bit too loose adding a belt actually makes the outfit look better sometimes especially if it’s a long flowy skirt.
