How to Wear Miniskirts During Winter

Just because it's frigid out doesn't mean your poor little miniskirts have to suffer in the back of your closet. It's time to dust them off and add them to your Winter rotation. How so? By pairing them with tights and boots. But not just any tights and boots — ones that will really elevate your skirts to a whole other level. This is the time to experiment with colors, textures, and prints. We're talking taking your holiday-ready sequin miniskirts and tempering them with gray tights and ankle boots and adding a pop of color to your printed minis via bright-red boots. There's way more amazing combos to try, so check out five miniskirt, tights, and boot outfits we've put together just for you.

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.

Here's what she has on:

Shoes: PedderRed
Ankle Chains: Dear Bearcat
Necklace: Dear Bearcat
Tee: CottonOn

Congrats to bellakoko!

Gogosushi cuts down on her shopping costs by making her own clothes — now that's talent! The seamstress showed off her pink passion today wearing a bright DIY bandage skirt. For maximum contrast, she paired it with black tights, matching leather hoodie, and screen-print tee. In fact, it reminds me of something Taylor Momsen would wear. Rock out girl.

Here's what she has on:

Tee: DIY Cavour Print tee
Jacket: Sportsgirl
Skirt: DIY
Bag: Mimco
Oxfords: Scooter

My mom loves, and I mean loves, Celine Dion's music. So, like a good daughter, I took her to a concert. I enjoyed seeing Celine's amazing on-stage ensembles, especially the ones from Balmain — amazing. Here's where you came in: I needed a look that was stylish, semi-comfortable, and colorful.

I started you off with this Charlotte Russe Buttoned Twill Skirt ($23) because I adore the color and the cut. Let's see what you conjured up!

Trend Alert: Flippy Minis

Tear your eyes away from Anne's long legs and focus on her flippy miniskirt.

Tear your eyes away from Anne's long legs and focus on her flippy miniskirt. Flippy minis are pretty genius when you think about it. Check it: the short hemline and floaty shape give off a simultaneously sweet and sexy look. I like how Anne stretched her stems to the limit in NYC by wearing her flippy mini with black tights and contrasting pumps. When wearing this trend, make sure the skirt has room to sway away from your hips; hence the flip. I'm inspired. Are you?

Rachel Pally Bandage Miniskirt: Love It or Hate It?

I'm always back and forth on the issue of wearing miniskirts — tight ones at that.

I'm always back and forth on the issue of wearing miniskirts — tight ones at that. This Rachel Pally Bandage Miniskirt ($159) is simple and the icy lavender color somewhat tones down the racy and snug cut. I can only see this overtly sexy number appropriate in certain scenarios; maybe a bachelorette party in Vegas or a trip to South Beach, Miami. You tell me, would you dare to wear this miniskirt?
