Skirting around the issue.

I love dressing all girlie in skirts and dresses, but sometimes find it hard to wear them casually, especially since they are all knee-length or longer. I always seem to end up looking a bit too prim and polished, which is really good if it's for work/church/events etc, but not very good if I just want to do a casual shop or wear around uni. However, I have found inspiration in these ladies styles and am going to try and embrace casual skirt-wearing!

I've also found some gorgeous skirts online that might help me be braver in wearing skirts in public! I need to ditch the jeans, I wear them farrrr too much! Here are some of my skirt loves at the minute


I love this skirt! I love that it has pockets (all skirts should have pockets!) and I love the grey print on it.
Miss Selfridge. £30. (source)

I love this polka dot skirt, and think that the pencil shape will be really flattering on.
River Island. £20. (source)

I think this is a bit more dressier than the other skirts, but could be toned down to casualwear by wearing with a slouchy grey tee or chunky knit jumper in a bright colour.

I love the deep, wine red colour of this maxi skirt and think it's one of those skirts you can throw on without having to think about it, but you still end up looking great!
New Look. £19.99. (source)
