Dos & Don’ts of Longer Skirts

[renee]

1950’s wore flat shoes with midi skirts all the time and it looked fabulous. Looks feminine and girly. The 80’s introduced the boots with midi skirts and it gives a more high fashion/edgy look. Neither is a do or don’t. It’s a matter of what look you’re going for.

The tights and shoes didn't look that bad to me. It's mostly the shirts I feel.

She has changed the upper part too. The black blouse cuts the figure while the white knit top adds length and takes off volume. Colours and fabrics are important too.

Sorry to say but I didn't even notice the boots change. The top is what made ALL the difference because you just turned it into a monochrome look. Nice video regardless ☺️ Love that skirt!!

Just call these videos “Balance” because that is all style is. Also you can wear flats with a long skirt. I do it all of the time.

The second look is exactly how my mom dressed when I was younger. I remember looking back at her style and thinking it was ugly, but now that I’m older I realize she had great style and dressed better then than I do now!

It’s alright to look vintage - A-line x flats combo with a spaghetti strap top is great as a whole look!

It’s not a fashion DONT, it’s just what you personally don’t do

"avoid the pretty blouse as it adds no edge to the feminine skirt" that is VERY subjective and assumes we have the same exact goals when styling outfits. Personally, sometimes I want to lean into the style of my main item to create a harmonious feeling instead of creating contrast like the outfit in this video. I get that this page will reflect your personal style, but it felt funny to me when paired with the more technical fashion advice about shoe shapes interacting with the silhouette.

I preferred the 1st outfit. To me she looked tall so flat shoes wasn't horrible. The black top's fabric looked more light, which matched the fabric of the skirt- no effort look. The second look is a lot more serious, less approachable.

We need more “dos” to longer skirts as we transition into autumn!

Δεν υπάρχει πρέπει και δεν πρέπει στην μόδα! Να ντύνεστε όπως σας αρέσει και όπως νιώθετε όμορφα

The second one is an entirely different outfit, just the skirt remained.

[shannonlee]

No thanks. I'll keep wearing flat shoes because I don't want to permanently damage by ankles and calves by walking in heels all the time. Screw "looking short and dated" I'm more than an object to be looked at.

Wear what you like and feel comfortable in and stop being influenced. There are no rules.

I thought the “no” look was better actually

[nameuneeded]

I think the first outfit would look nice with a blouse that's a little more fitted and some sheer tights. Feminine and flattering can certainly coexist

[bananaivers]

Eh, I think the second one looks more "aging and dated"

[rebecahazelgrove]

that is, of course, until fashion gurus and famous designer tell you it is absolutely cool to wear that skirt with flat shoes, dark hosiery and a loose blouse....🙄🙄🙄🙄and it is totally out to wear it with boots and a turtleneck sweater.
