#1 A-line skirt

An A-line skirt is one of the most versatile skirts ever and matches any kind of top ranging from sweaters to t-shirts. It's also great for the ladies with a pear-shaped body because the way the skirt flares will hide wide hips and thighs while accentuating your slim waist. In fact, it's a skirt that flatters most body types so make sure you have one in your wardrobe!

#2 Denim skirt

This is a classic skirt that most girls would already have or own a few in different colours and designs. We recommend getting the basic blue denim first as it goes with all kinds of outfits. Choose from ripped ones, short or long ones and tight or loose ones. Remember to tuck your top in when wearing a denim skirt so that you can show off the details on the skirt and your legs will look longer too.

#3 Flared midi skirt

The previous two skirts are more suitable for casual settings but a midi flared skirt is good for office wear. A skirt with flared ruffles at the bottom gives off an elegant and feminine vibe. When paired with a top like a sweater or casual blouse, the entire outfit will still look presentable and appropriate for work.

#4 Maxi skirt

A maxi skirt is another wardrobe must-have that is also appropriate for work and casual occasions. We recommend choosing maxi skirts with no designs for work and maxi skirts with prints for other casual occasions. Maxi skirts will also make your legs appear longer and make you look taller. However, if you are petite lady, see our tips on how to pull off maxi dresses which you can apply to maxi skirts too.

#5 Leather skirt

Edgy leather skirts can be paired with sweaters, t-shirts and even collared shirts for work. It's also the skirt to wear to parties and after work events for a laid-back and fashionable look. Pair with a belt to spruce it up if needed.

#6 Wrap skirt

The ribbon on wrap skirts adds a feminine touch and this lovely type of skirt can also be paired with almost any kind of top. Go for the longer ones for work and the shorter ones for a date night or outing with your besties!
