Miniskirts are Back: Here's How to Wear Them

Long story short: miniskirts are major news this season. Despite the chill, fashion's finest are baring their legs and stepping out in everything from schoolgirl-esque pleated skirts to luxe leather styles. Yes, they might not offer the most coverage but who cares about practicality when you look this good? Get on board with the winter-approved spin on miniskirts with the four of our favourite skirts. They're all mini, faux leather and trending; basically, a triple threat.

Cranberry-Sauce Coded

This December, seek inspiration from festive feasts and add a pop of cranberry-sauce red to your outfit. This may sound like a slightly unhinged proposal but hear us out: burgundy red was *everywhere* on the AW23 runways. It's just a happy coincidence that it's also a little bit festive. It pairs beautifully with browns so pair your chocolate brown mini skirt and camel trench with a subtle slogan sweatshirt, red sling backs and a red bag. Yummy.

Peak Preppy

There's only a small period of time where we can wear miniskirt and loafers *without* tights. Luckily, we're just about still there. Before we head into the depths of winter (we see you January/February), make the most of this sartorial sweet spot with this preppy-inspired look. Make sure to add an oversized leather jacket and frilly sock so you'll only be left slightly chilly, as opposed to freezing.

All About the Boot

This summer, the term "wrong shoe theory" was doing the rounds. It's basically an easy (but slightly bizarre) styling formula where a person's shoe of choice clashes with just about everything else they're wearing. We're recreating it this winter with the "zany boot" (or the "statement boot", as we would have called it in the '00s). Simply throw on a head-to-toe cream look like this one, add a snakeskin boot and voila: you've mastered two (or maybe even three) trends in one.

Precious Metals

Forgo sequins and go for gold (and silver) this party season with mixed metals. Providing just the right amount of festivity, it's the cool-girl's answer to Christmas party invites. If you’re looking for a way to ease into the trend, start with this gold miniskirt with ruched detailing and pair it with a wardrobe classic: the oversized white shirt. Complete your look with silver shoes, gold earrings and a bag that ties it all together (like this diamante and gold one).
