After a recent much needed clear out of my wardrobe it occurred to me that I hardly have any skirts. Of course I have the obvious black bondage skirt and a like a work type one, but no casual everyday skirts.
So I started on the hunt for some skirts I could wear to college, maybe dress up or down and that would last...here are some of the styles I found.
Full
I saw this picture of Taylor Swift in Look Magazine and fell in love with the entire thing. The mix of brights paired with a classic Breton tee, the nautical vibe without being to follow-the-crowd. The exact skirt can be found in Zara for about £30 I believe, but for a student thats quite a bit of money for one piece, so maybe just a lust item for now. Sad face.
Staying with the full skirt theme, I saw this skirt on ASOS and loved it. I adore the nude and black combo, but at £129, way way out of my price range. However with this skirt i did find a solution...the same skirt (basically) in good ol' Primarni for £12, in blue and white. Unfortunately I am unable to find my camera and so cannot take a pic, but honest to blog, it is the exact same style. Result.
Floral
A gorgeous classic floral skirt will take you from spring to summer to autumn when paired with tights. This lovely one is from H&M and comes in tonnes of different prints. Belt in, tuck a top in, have a flowy top out. Plus its on sale atm!! Need I say more.
Here is another floral skirt paired with a jumper and socks. Me love, me want!
Chiffon
Chiffon is so appealing as it is so feminine and floaty. I love the way this is belted with a oversized top, just think of all the colour combinations you could have. Again sadly, this one is £45 from American Apparel, so probably a no no for me :( I am constantly searching for a lookalike without the hefty price tag, but it is hard to find cheap chiffon that doesn't look cheap or feel really plastic-y.
So some skirt inspiration, but upsettingly my wardrobe remains pretty skirt-free. If anyone has seen any nice/cheapish skirts recently please let me know!!
Hope everyone is doing well, see you all soon
