A midi skirt presents the perfect opportunity to flaunt a blend of feminine grace and laid-back cool. Opt for a soft jersey skirt or even a denim rendition for maximum versatility. Layering is key – a lightweight, cropped sweater or a simple denim jacket can effortlessly dial down the sophistication. When it comes to footwear, the rule is there are no rules – chunky boots add edge, while slip-on flats keep the vibe low-key. Accessories such as beanies or baseball caps can introduce an extra twist of slouchy streetwear charm to the ensemble.
4. Fitted Midi Skirt
Midi skirts don’t always have to be full and pouffy. They can be sleeker and more streamlined if you go for a fitted version. Catherine was snapped by Suzanne Middlemass wearing an ASOS fitted midi skirt, white Peter Pan collar blouse, and beige trench coat. She accessorised with graphic sunglasses, red buckled shoes and a red headscarf.
5. Checked Midi Skirt
Mixing and matching prints is still a pretty popular trend. We spotted this eye-catching look on the Stylesight blog. The black and white check midi skirt teamed with a bright sunflower print top is a fun summer look. It has a bit of a preppy '50s inspired feel to it, but the mix and match prints are very ‘now.’

Accessorizing this ensemble with simple jewelry and a pair of bold statement shoes can elevate the whole outfit, making it perfect for brunch with friends or a casual day at the office. If you prefer a subtler take on this trend, consider pairing the skirt with a classic white tee and a denim jacket. For those cooler evenings, throw on a leather jacket for an edgy twist that seamlessly blends retro charm with contemporary style. Remember, the key to rocking a checked midi skirt is confidence and a playful approach to fashion!
6. Bright Midi Skirt
Bring on the bright colours! This colourful look was snapped by Topshop’s street style photographers. The bright skirt is a great way to get noticed and looks even more vibrant teamed with equally colourful clothes and accessories. If you’re going to try for a similarly vivid look, make sure you choose complementary colours that go well together.
7. Black Midi Skirt
Thandi here was snapped by Suzanne Middlemass wearing a wardrobe staple – the black midi skirt. She teams her Whistles skirt, with a white top and black shoes and accessories. This outfit is versatile enough to suit a range of occasions. Wear it during the day or swap the oversized handbag for a clutch at night.
8. Pleated Midi Skirt
Make your midi skirt the focal point of your outfit by keeping the rest of your outfit fairly simple. That’s what Louise opted for when she was snapped for Glamour Magazine. She teams her bright blue pleated skirt with a black t-shirt, tights, and pointed heels. You could also dress this look down by ditching the tights and slipping on some flat sandals for a summery look.
9. Striped Midi Skirt
Team a high waisted midi skirt with a crop top for one of the freshest looks this summer. Blogger Cassandra of Kastles wears a vintage striped skirt with a black crop top and ankle strap heels. A gold chain necklace, assorted bracelets, and a bright pink lipstick complete her outfit.
10. Tulle Midi Skirt
Channel your inner Carrie Bradshaw and try out this tulle midi skirt look! It's very Sex & The City, in a very good way! I think tulle skirts are the perfect balance between fun and sophisticated. You can still make the outfit look and feel classy by pairing the skirt with a long sleeved shirt and some classic black heels.
11. Polka-dotted Midi Skirt
Polkadots are such a fun pattern to wear! Since they're already such a statement-making piece, try to keep the rest of the outfit simple. Pair the skirt with a neutral colored top like black or white and keep accessories to a minimum! The skirt will definitely earn you some style points.
12. Midi Skirt with Denim
Denim shirts are usually seen as "casual" pieces so pairing it with a midi skirt is always fun. I love finding the perfect balance between girly and edgy! If your skirt is a light color, pair it with a light-wash chambray shirt. If your skirt is a dark color, pair it with a dark-wash chambray shirt!
13. Floral Midi Skirt
You can never go wrong with floral! It's always been my go-to pattern because it's so easy to make it look chic and sophisticated. As popular as the floral trend is in the summer, it's totally acceptable to wear in every season!

Maryferret: No. 4 ... Love it and think would also work with even longer skirt ... also No. 7 even tho tis on the conservative side Thandi\'s rockin it .... and her Big Black Bag ... Where did she get it ? Love it so much I seriously want to buy one! If anyone can advise what brand it is .. I would be oh so eternally grateful! One of my faves for a midi dress (floral/patterned) is with a bolero or cropped cardi (in solid colour) on top ... elongates a shorter gal if you get the colours/patterns right .. Anyone else agree??
Leone: I loved number 1 and 2 <3
