My New Happy: Spring Midi Skirts

Spring Midi Skirts


When my mom was visiting a few weeks ago, we spent a lot of time at the mall.
During my shopping ban I stayed far away from temptation, but having mom here was a good excuse to shop.

The stores were bursting with pretty spring looks, and everywhere we went we saw the loveliest knee length midi skirts. Florals, geometric patterns and lace were the most popular, but we also saw sexy insets and romantic tulle. 

 Working from home, I don't have a big need for skirts in my wardrobe.  But if I did, I'd have one of each of these!

 For more spring inspiration, be sure to check out Create28 at A Lovely Little Wardrobe, where my friend Carrie is co-hosting and sharing different spring looks during the month of April.  

 And be sure to come back next week for my first look at the Spring Style Me Challenge.  The shopping list was released last weekend, and I'm excited to see what outfits Alison has in store for us!

    I love midi skirts but like you, I work from home so they would not get worn very often. These are all gorgeous picks! My favorite is #1!

      I love that one too, and it would go with so many tops.

    I love this style of skirt too! Beautiful and fun for Spring! I work from home also, so I don't do skirts very often but I might have to break down when the weather warms up! Great picks!

      Thanks Audrey. I think I'm going to have to buy one too - it will give me an excuse to get dressed up!

      Isn't that black one fun? I'm probably too old for it though!

    I love the length, but I have never found skirts with gathers and pleats off of the waistband to be very flattering on me. If they were, I would definitely wear #1 or #2.

    I hit the outlet mall this past weekend when our company was here and saw one of these and fell in love with it! I haven't worn a dress in years, but this one I would definitely make an exception for. I didn't buy it buy I may go back to get it now though!

    I love these...wish they flattered my figure...but for the right body type they are perfect.

      I think the length is good for everyone, it's just finding the right fit that's the trick!

    Just back from LA where my mom (92) was looking for a skirt during one of our shopping runs. She didn't find one but got some lovely pairs of pants. As for me - I 'm like Susan F. I can't wear anything with pleats or gathers off the waistband. Love #3 - the black number but sadly it's way out of my age range I suspect.

    Heading out this weekend in search of the perfect floral midi but haven't seen many yet around El Paso. Any suggestions where I should look? Love your suggestions above but not sure I can do tulle or organza. Great post!

    I don't have a lot of skirts - something about my hips. And I feel matronly with long ones but weird with short ones. These midis are PERFECT.
