Pencil Skirt

A pencil skirt is a wardrobe essential. It’s good to have on hand for a variety of different events. You may need it for a last-minute job interview, an important speech or meeting at school, or even a funeral. It’s important to keep a staple that’s so simple in your closet, because you never know when you may need to wear it!

Mini Skirt

Rather than searching through your closet when your best friend surprises you with the concert of your dreams, keep a go-to mini skirt in your closet that you can always pull out of your closet for those last-minute events. If you know that you can pair it with a ton of different tops in your closet, this is the mini skirt for you.

Midi Skirt

As women try to recreate that retro style in their own personal wardrobes, the midi skirt is back with a vengeance. A midi skirt can be paired with nearly anything, and can be worn to nearly anything. Whether you need it for a last-minute wedding or a last-minute brunch, a midi skirt can be dressed up or down depending on the event you need to wear it to.

Leather Skirt

A lot of people shy away from leather for ethical reasons, but you may be surprised to learn that there’s a fake leather substitute that looks very similar to actual leather. Just like a mini-skirt, it’s good to have a leather skirt in your closet for those spontaneous nights out.

A-Line Skirt

A-Line skirts, much like midi skirts, can be dressed up or down depending on the event you’re attending, and much like pencil skirts, are perfect for professional meetings or interviews. They add a little bit of pizazz to the typical pencil skirt outfit!

Plaid Skirt

As a former Catholic schoolgirl, I stayed away from plaid skirts for years, until very recently, when I wore a plaid skirt during the holiday season. If you’re like me and have also shied away from your former uniform, give it another chance. A plaid skirt is the perfect winter outfit option, because plaid screams winter and a skirt dresses up your whole look!

Maxi Skirt

For those people who will be jetting off on a tropical vacation soon (I’m jealous!) adding a maxi skirt to your repertoire may be just what you need! A maxi skirt adds a beach vibe to a typical, plain outfit. It will make you feel like you’re ready for the perfect day at the beach!

What is your favorite type of skirt to wear? Which of these are you sure to keep in your closet always?

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I love full and pleated skirts. Having slimmer hips, they give me a nice fuller look.

I love the pencil skirt , but it's very chic instead of screaming sex , when is not worn so tight as that makes it less suitable for interviews or church . Also the short girl has to stay away from too full of skirt .Another personal pic for myself ( not very tall ) to get elongat

I had the cutest pleated mini skirt when I was younger/thinner. Wish I could find another like it,because I'm like Heather, I have no skirts.

I have skirts but never wear them! My trusty jeans are always first pick!

I love maxi skirts! Makes me feel like a bohemian princess :)

Why hide things from view? As long as you remain tasteful, why should a woman feel she needs to hide her body because of how she's made?

The longish pencil skirt is great with jackets .The maxi a blessing for travelling especially in black non crushable material.

I love the pencil skirt it's so classy and sexy

I am not sure every woman should own a mini... esp those with giant thunder thighs, cellulitis... shouldn't these be hidden from view?

Yes I agree with Nancy it's got to be appropriate for church and functions without looking tarty. I wear mines to church it looks just right and not to skimpy
