Skirting Away

It is terribly hot and most of us want to avoid our beloved jeans for obvious reasons - they stick to your legs and make you sweaty and uncomfortable. Skirts and shorts are the best things in summer. I love wearing skirts, they make your legs look good even if you don't have a proper shoe to go with it. LOL! Skirts are the best thing beside shorts that you can wear in summer - fashionable and comfortable! So, if it is summer show off your legs in skirts rather than the typical jeans. Summer is style! ;)

But then again there is the word of caution: while wearing skirts, people tend to forget their figure and structure. Since skirt is NOT jeans, it has to appeal to your shape. Seeing a short skirt in the clothing store and just doing it may not be a good idea if you are slightly on the plumper side or the shorter end. :( Skirts are elegant and you have to put it on elegantly as well. Below are some of the common mistakes that I see people do with skirts.

Blunder #1) A plump girl with not very thin legs wears a short skirt. Well, you can imagine it is not a very pleasant in fashion. It does not look good! If you are planning to wear a short skirt, make sure your legs are in shape.  Instead, go for a long skirt. Long skirts are elegant! They make you look classy!

Blunder #2) A short girl wearing a long skirt. Well, when my height is short I would like to wear something that makes my legs look long and makes me seem taller! Long skirts are generally flowy in nature and they tend to hide your frame. Go for mini skirts. Also, short people should stick to monochromatic colors like clothes in blue hue/ pink hue like that. Stripes and multicolored clothes tend to draw attention to your short stature. Say no to Horizontal details or big prints. With the skirt don't forget to wear a good heel, however not more than 3 inches. Not only do extra heels make your height look synthetic but also they are a health hazard.  A calf length boot is perfect! Another kind of skirt that these women should avoid are skirts that are in between your knee and ankle. I detest these skirts and I detest them more when fat and short people wear it. I personally would never wear these and go out in public.

Blunder #3) Unshaven legs. Before adorning the skirt make sure your leg is well moisturized and devoid of body hair. Otherwise it is a sore!

So, anyway wear the skirts well keeping in mind your figure, I guess Summer will be a stylish season for you! :)
