Trend Alert: Flouncy Miniskirts

Yes, we thought those days were over too.

Yes, we thought those days were over too. We thought it was all about long skirts, maybe to the floor, and definitely below the knee. Then came Paris Fashion Week, and some incredible Parisian street style, where we saw women showing leg in flouncy, fun-loving minis. So, just in case you cleaned out your closet of the miniskirt to prepare for the maxi, here are a few ultra chic options to show some leg this Spring.

Color Combo to Try: Pale Pink + Gray

When done correctly, pale pink and gray can be the perfect mix of sweet and sophisticated.

When done correctly, pale pink and gray can be the perfect mix of sweet and sophisticated. Gray acts as a great base, and a subtle pop of pink adds a fresh, feminine touch. Emma Stone tried this combo recently, and I love how modern and effortless it looks. To steal her look, start with a pair of gray jeans ($70) and add a floaty tee ($67). Or, throw on a relaxed gray sweatshirt ($120) and get your pink fix via a wispy scarf ($210). No matter how you fuse the two, you'll look pretty and put-together.

We'll always hold a special place in our closets for gorgeous gray, but this season's color wheel is pointing toward warm Autumn hues. Just the thought of olive green, camel, and rust-colored cozies are making us yearn for the leaves to change colors. If you can't wait, try incorporating these earth tones right now via tees, cargos, and other lightweight offerings. Peep how Kristin Cavallari jumped the gun at the BlackBerry Bold party in LA wearing a ruched tan A.L.C. dress with Christian Louboutin pumps. Smashing, yes?
