We\u2019ve all done it. Bought a great skirt for that birthday party or New Year\u2019s eve bash, planned a whole outfit around it, looked great that night, and proceeded to wear it exactly zero times<\/em> after that. If you\u2019re sick of letting those great skirts sit in the back of your closet, here\u2019s some \u201cskirtspiration<\/strong>\u201d for ways to reimagine those seemingly only-for-special-occasion skirts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pair dressy skirts with casual tops to balance each other out. Then pull it together with a neutral blazer to make a cohesive look.<\/span><\/p>\n

For skirts with lots of volume, wear a lighter shirt on top. Mix and match bright patterns and bold colors to keep the outfit casual enough for an everyday look.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kne<\/span>e-high<\/span> socks are a great option <\/span>to pair with a<\/span> denim skirt that wouldn\u2019t work as well with tights. A simple long sleeve T-shirt is a great way to keep it comfortable and casual.<\/span><\/p>\n

A sequin skirt may seem like it would be something you could never wear on the average day, but with a cozy flannel and knit tights it\u2019s a fun addition to an otherwise standard outfit. Alternating light and dark from flannel to skirt to tights to shoes keeps the statement piece from popping too much.<\/span><\/p>\n

Wearing all black with this camel colored suede skirt helps it pop. Add a statement necklace to tie it together.<\/span><\/p>\n

Skirts with chunky sweaters have been very popular this winter. When you have a neutral colored skirt, try a sweater and tights that are complimenting colors to keep it interesting.<\/span><\/p>\n
