Meet the Top 10 Skirt Bloggers of November 2014


Can you believe it's already December? It wasn't long when we've featured our favorite skirt outfits for October and now, we're already bidding goodbye to November through another round-up of our favorite outfits.



This month might have breezed through but it's definitely not lacking in outfits that will make you stop and take a second glance. Here are the bloggers who made it to this list:


1. Liat from Canada


Liat




Liat2




Liat superbly incorporated her midi leather skirt by partnering it with a sweater and an overcoat. Just slip on a pair of thermal tights when the days are cold and this outfit can already be your go-to one.


2. Monica from Georgia


Monica




We're happy to see the mermaid skirt making a comeback after its brief stint earlier this year. Monica styled it to perfection - with a striped sweater over a button down shirt, a pair of pumps and a chain-strapped bag.


3. Cassandra from Singapore


Cassandra




Cassandra channeled her inner Parisian-chic in this fiery red pencil skirt that she wore with a cute fox-printed sweater. We don't know which one we covet more - her skirt or her sweater?


4. Daniela from Florida


Daniela




This is how you wear florals in autumn and winter! We love the floral print of Daniela's skirt. Wearing it with a black sweater and platform peep-toe pumps also amped up the classy meter.


5. Helena from Spain


Helena




Helena2




We've always though black pleated skirts are classy and versatile and we're once again proven right. We love how Helena styled it with a red striped sweater for that holiday feel and how she kept her accessories polished and chic.


6. Angela from California


Angela




Angela2




We are more than a wee bit smitten with Angela's Altuzarra skirt. It's a great staple for those women who need more versatility in their wardrobe as this piece can easily go beyond your 9-5 schedule!


7. Cassandra from New York


Cassandra3




This is how you do shades of grey right! We can't get over how cute that flared skirt is and how Cassandra took the pretty level up a notch by wearing a plaid muffler over her outfit.


8. Anna from Russia


Anna




Is there really something bad that can be said about a swan-printed skirt? No? We thought so too. Anna looked adorable in this covetable skirt!


9. Alba from Spain


Alba




If you have a skirt with this structure, you pretty much can stand there and look fabulous all the time. But Alba made her skirt stand out even more by wearing it with a fuzzy sweater, a pair of ankle boots and a shoulder bag.


10. May from Congo


May




It's definitely the time to saturate your closet with anything plaid. Take a cue from May who wore it with a green coat and a sweater. We will wear this outfit any day!



If these amazing outfits are anything to go by, December is bound to become one stylish month. Stay tuned for our last list for 2014!

How to Copy Sarah Jessica Parker’s Chic Pleated Skirt Shopping Outfit!


Prepare to be Carrie Bradshawed, ladies, because this outfit is definitely going to make heads turn your way. Sarah Jessica Parker's idea of a shopping outfit in fetching Rome is a monochromatic black ensemble featuring a modest pleated skirt and a pair of sky-high heels!

Sarah Jessica Parker was spotted with a friend rummaging through the clothing rails at the Via Sannio flea market in Rome on October 17, 2014



The 49-year-old showed some serious knack for style in her pleated midi skirt. The box-pleated piece added just the right romantic touch to her all-black look without veering away from her conservative aesthetic. But in true Carrie Bradshaw style, the mother-of-three spiced it up with a cleavage-baring camisole and a pair of gorgeous mules.



You can totally copy this look (if you don't mind walking in tall shoes for shopping, that is)! The key there is wearing a cute midi skirt, preferably one with pleats. Grab your black camisole and layer a cardigan over it. Accessorize with a pair of black sandals, a fedora hat and statement jewelry.

The Easiest Way of Wearing a Printed Skirt According to Reese Witherspoon is…


...partnering the skirt with a basic white shirt. Okay, she didn't exactly say the words but it doesn't take a genius to figure out that it's one of her infallible fashion tricks. Just Google Reese Witherspoon and her skirts and you'll find quite a number of photos of her in this go-to ensemble.



Her latest look involves yet again another plain white button down shirt. But this time, the actress takes it up a notch with a colorful geometric-printed skirt.

The print on the 38-year-old's skirt reminded us of carnivals and swirly lollipops, for some reason. It must be the red, pastel blue and white theme or the striped red print. Reese looked ready to take on the world in this faultless ensemble. She meant business in her crisp white top but the skirt took care of the fun in the outfit.



The overall effect is classy, thanks to the addition of the simple red sandals, chunky accessories, the white Hermes Birkin bag and the big pair of sunglasses.



The Legally Blonde actress isn't the only one who relies on the versatility of the white shirt and printed skirt combo. We swear by it too! So here are some outfits we put together inspired by this look:

Skirt Essentials – 5 Skirts You Need to Stay Chic This Autumn and Winter


What skirts should you be rocking in the cold months of autumn and winter? We have the details for you. Snap at least two of these skirt essentials to make your wardrobe an instant autumn and winter hit!


1. Pleated Skirt


Inspiration:

Tess


Tess from Tess Lively blog



Pleated skirts come in different forms these days. Cute electric-pleated skirts work wonders in achieving the preppy look. Boxy pleats are also all the rage these days and often incorporated in A-line skirt silhouettes. Give a new look to your old pieces, particularly your button down tops, by pairing them up with pleated skirts!

2. Flounce Skirt

There's no shortage of flounce skirts these days. While these might be a little tricky to wear because of their silhouette, there are actually a lot of ways to style them. You can even wear them with just a basic boxy shirt or go the extra mile in layering them with a sweater or a jacket.

3. Skater Skirt

Skater skirts are versatile and easy to style. This is probably why we haven't seem the last of them yet. Wear them with cropped tops, button down shirts, t-shirts, muscle tees, what-have-you.

While pencil skirts may look daunting (I don't know about you but I still look at pencil skirts and think office wear), they can be worn even for your most casual days. As you can see from our celebrity inspirations, you can wear them with tank tops and jackets or switch to dressier chunky sweaters when you are in the mood to gussy up.

Wear the Trend: 50′s Skirts Under $50


Out with the short, and in with the midis. Fall/Winter 2014 is all about the midi skirt, and what better way to celebrate this classic silhouette than to splash a little vintage onto it? Whether you're channeling a quirky full-on Zooey Deschanel look or experimenting with ways to mix a little nostalgia with modern pieces, these six skirts are sure to scratch that 50 s itch (did we mention that they're all under $50?).



1.



Ruche


Ruche Green Gables Circle Skirt in Mustard, $39.99



Tone down a bright sunny color to a more fall-friendly subdued one such as a pretty mustard shade. For that 50 s look, find one with a single horizontal stripe that delicately runs right across the entire width of the skirt. Pair it with bolder stripes and a pretty pointed-toe pump (you can throw in some metallic for an instant holiday vibe) and you're all set.



Try the look:



Ruche John Lewis ASOS


Ruche Green Gables Circle Skirt In Mustard, $39.99 / Oasis Stripe Polo Neck Jumper, Black/Beige, 25.00 / ASOS Timeless Oneil Black Heeled Shoes, $49.83 (before: $74.75)



2.



Dorothy Perkins


Dorothy Perkins Black and Stone Midi Skirt, 22



Flower power, anyone? Slapping a 70 s flower print onto an A-line silhouette automatically turns the look from hippie to darling vintage. Complete the look with a turtleneck cap-sleeved crop top and a dual-strapped mary jane pumps to put a little back-to-the-future edge to this look.



Try this look:



Dorothy Perkins Charlotte Russe Dune


Dorothy Perkins Black and Stone Midi Skirt, 22 / Charlotte Russe Cap Sleeve Mock Neck Crop Top, $7.50 (before: $10.99) / Dune Black Patent Aibleen Mary Jane Pointed Toe Court Shoe, 48.00 (before: 69.00



3.



Ruche Corner Store Polka Dot Midi Skirt


Ruche Corner Store Polka Dot Midi Skirt, $42.99



Nothing says Hairspray quite like polka dots (we'd say Grease but leather wins on that one). Put a little modern twist into the polkadot A-line skirt look by going print-on-print with, what else, more polkadots! To get a good contrast, choose different sized dots for your top and skirt, and make sure the colors complement each other. Slip your feet into white ankle-strapped pointed-toe d'orsays for a fresh look.



Try this look:



Ruche Forever 21 Fashion Union


Ruche Corner Store Polka Dot Midi Skirt, $42.99 / Forever 21 Polka Dot Tube Top, $7.80 / Fashion Union White Stiletto Ankle Strap Shoe, 28.00



4.



ASOS Scuba Midi Skirt With Kilt Buckles


ASOS Scuba Midi Skirt With Kilt Buckles, $42.72 (before: $71.19)



Mixing-and-matching not your thing? Not to fret - a monotone outfit makes as strong a statement as a print-on-print one. Go for bold colors such as a firetruck red or orange, and you're sure to get asked out to a burger-and-milkshake date (okay, so maybe that's a wee bit outdated). Just be careful when mixing silhouettes and hues as the wrong combinations may make you end up looking a bit deranged.



Try this look:



ASOS River Island New Look


ASOS Scuba Midi Skirt With Kilt Buckles, $42.72 (before: $71.19) / River Island Bright Pink Ruched Sweetheart Crop Top, $20 (before: $40) / New Look Red Cross Strap Pointed Court Shoes, 12.99 (before: 22.99)



5.



Ruche Prairie Fields Floral Indie Skirt


Ruche Prairie Fields Floral Indie Skirt, $39.99



We've gone with a 70 s floral pattern, so now let's dial it back down to the softer and sweeter florals of the 50 s and 60 s. Pile on the sugar by wearing an off-shoulder top with a sweetheart neckline, partnered with ultra-femme strappy heels in a beige or pinkish nude hue. Don a red lip ala Katy Perry for a stronger vintage feel, or you can opt to stick to lighter shades for a subdued modern take on the era.



Try this look:



Ruche ASOS Nine West


Ruche Prairie Fields Floral Indie Skirt, $39.99 / ASOS Crop Top with Sweetheart Neck and Off Shoulder, $17.80 / Nine West Breezin Platform Sandals, $33.37 (before: $89)



6.



Dorothy Perkins Black Mesh Hem Circle Skirt


Dorothy Perkins Black Mesh Hem Circle Skirt, 22.00



More of a Posh Spice than a Ginger Spice? These 50 s A-line skirts look good in black, too, especially with clever little mesh insets at the hem. If you prefer a little color, pick out an aztec print crop top with a sweetheart neckline. Pair it with a daintily strapped pointed-toe d'orsay to liven up this posh ensemble.



Try this look:



Dorothy Perkins Damned Deluxe ASOS


Dorothy Perkins Black Mesh Hem Circle Skirt, 22.00 / Damned Delux Women's Aztec Binded Bralet Top in Mint/Pink, 12.99 / ASOS Saturday Heels, $44.50
