How to Select the Right Skirt for Your Body Figure

When buying a skirt you must carefully choose the right style and cut that will flatter your body shape. Your legs are vulnerable to hemlines as they can easily visually affect the shape, width and length of your legs. Like for example, if a skirt hits mid-calf, they might appear shorter or wider because the line draws the eye to the widest part of your legs.

Before you go shopping for new fashion skirts, make sure you already have the essentials first. These are basic skirts that will keep you covered in every season and all occasions. They're also versatile to match with the rest of your wardrobe.

List of skirt essentials (a minimum of one skirt of each even if you aren't a skirt-gal!):

  • One simple all-season dark color skirt (for work and play. A pencil or A-line skirt is ideal)
  • Light colored summer office skirt (preferably white or cream as it is universal)
  • Denim skirt (pencil or mini depending on your age, lifestyle and personal taste)
  • Black day-to-night skirt (something that works for both day and evening, for example a circle or bubble skirt with pleats)

With the right skirt it can disguise what you don't like, visually create something that's not there and enhance parts you love. The shape and style of a skirt can also make you look curvier, thinner, taller, etc. So remember to figure out your personal style (body shape, height, etc.) before you start shopping. Trust me it'll be worth it :-)

When securing an all-season dark color skirt make sure it is in a neutral/earthy color like black, brown, cream/white or gray. These colors will blend in with all seasons -- from fall to summer. They're appropriate for work, interviews, lunching and even semi-formal occasions, and most events.

Your perfect all-season work skirt is tailored and simple. It should be easy to combine with other clothes. So leave out patterns and frilly add-ons. If you work in an office and/ or love skirts then buying a skirt in each color will keep you covered.

A basic black pencil skirt is preferred because it oozes femininity and is more suitable for work settings compared to A-line skirts. Read ideas on how to wear a pencil skirt.

You also need one or two summer office skirts. So choose something fresh, light-colored (white, baby pink, nude etc.) in lightweight fabric like linen, cotton blends or chiffon.

Note: If your work's environment is on the informal side, pick a skirt with cute patterns like floral and dots.

You might as well secure a few casual summer skirts like for example long gypsy skirts with boho prints or creped texture, or a floral skirt. A denim skirt is also a must but your choice of style depends on your age and lifestyle -- if you're over 40 a knee length denim pencil skirt is more age-appropriate than minis.
