There is no reason why women should not wear a mini skirt when they want to. Every woman needs to feel attractive and good about her body. If a woman works hard at looking good, then wearing a mini skirt is something that she should take advantage of and do as she pleases. A great mini skirt is a must have for any woman’s wardrobe.

Mini skirts are fun fashion items. As far as when they’re in fashion - they’re never really out of fashion and they keep on returning as a feature piece every few summers. They’re not for everyone, but for those who enjoy them, it’s worth knowing the ways that you can make yourself look the best wearing one. This article gives some pointers on how to get the best out of wearing a mini skirt.

Steps
1. Give your legs a boost. Most of us aren’t blessed with long, skinny legs. That doesn’t mean the mini is out. It does mean paying a little extra attention to what enhances your legs. Consider:

Bare legs - waxed and fit

Nude tights - these are good if you wear a closed toe shoe

Fishnet tights or patterned tights

Opaque tights - for women who like opaque and for women in their 50s and over. Choose black, chocolate brown, plums and steel greys for the colours. Leave lighter colours to the teenage crowd as they tend to emphasise larger legs.

2. Choose the right look. Not all minis are equal. Some have more space than others. The classic A-line and bias cuts flatter most women, whilst the tighter variety tends to work best on the long-legged, slim, younger wearer.

A tight mini tends to be favoured by younger wearers

A flowing mini creates a softer, more romantic feel.

Older wearers are likely to feel more comfortable in minis that give a little room to move and flow rather than cling. Consider such choices as kilts, wraps and pleats.The Early Show advice also suggests that darker colours are better for older women wearing minis and for office wear.

3. Wear the right shoes. Experiment in the mirror and see what looks best with your mini. Here are some suggestions:

Boots of differing lengths.

High heels with the right heel and wearer.

Flip flops can work. It depends on the skirt and the occasion

4. Consider the top. Mini skirts benefit from wearing the correct top. T-shirts tend to work well with most minis. For more elegant wear, a blazer or jacket is a good choice. Women with larger chests may not feel as comfortable wearing a mini, however, as the shortness of the skirt can over-emphasise the chest size.

Tips

If you don’t feel comfortable with how your legs appear in a mini, don’t wear it. Your discomfort will translate to the way you interact whilst wearing it and it may even cause you to feel overly self-conscious. Choose gorgeous, luxurious longer skirts or A-line skirts instead. Some of these can be “almost” minis and will still flatter you and leave you with the sense of freedom and enjoyment that comes with wearing a skirt.

Mini skirts are considered to be more slimming than tight jeans, especially post winter munching

If you need to keep active, choose a mini skort. It has in-built shorts and when you cycle, cartwheel or tumble, you don’t have to worry about showing your underwear.

Wear long jackets with short skirts and shorter jackets with longer skirts.
