Midi skirts came back on to the season last spring. A retro-inspired look, I initially thought I’d post about them then, but was discouraged by their wearability. For shorties like me, they can chop our legs into small pieces and add weight.<\/p>\n

But as many trends do, they grew on me, and I think these new fall incarnations are positively lovely. That being said, consider proportion and volume before picking up yours. For petite ladies, try a shorter version. And for those of you with ample lower halves, think about an a-line with less volume. Refinery 29 offers some great tips<\/a> on how to wear the trend from last spring, and Who What Wear has an interesting post on slim versions<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Normally when I put together the Polyvore\u00a0sets for the blog, I try not include photos with models in them, but made an exception for this one. I like how the shots from ASOS\u00a0demonstrate the\u00a0versatility of midi skirts.\u00a0 But, please note all of the MODELS are wearing heels with these, so I would consider this a sign that most of us non-models should do the same.<\/p>\n
