When wearing a stylish small-flower patterned skirt, tone down its sweetness by choosing a masculine tee
“Patterns featuring small flowers are all the rage right now. A skirt is a good way to add such a pattern. Patterns of small flowers tend to be too sweet and girlish, but this one enables chic looks, owing to its black base. I toned down the sweet feel even more and added a clean touch that’s perfect for summer by matching the skirt to a white, masculine tee and adding extra summer touches, like beach sandals and a wicker bag.”

Printed Flare Skirt
U Crew Neck T-Shirt
Start by choosing an eye-catching orange model of this ribbed tight skirt and add sporty accessories to complete a contemporary, casual look
“A wholesome orange skirt is perfect for casual looks because it isn’t too demure. I matched it to a drape blouse to take the look to the next level. Purposefully choose sporty accessories to complete a casual look that oozes style.”
Featured Item
Ribbed Long Pencil Skirt
Drape 3/4 Sleeve Blouse
This fluttery pleated long skirt dazzles! Match it to a black top to make a sharp, tight getup
“This pleated long skirt is ideal for the office, but I opted for a more casual feel by matching it to a jersey top. The top has voluminous sleeves that have a sweet air to them and a lustrous quality on top of the perfect amount of femininity that’s produced by its black color. Leave the waist out to complete a great silhouette that’s stylishly loose.”

Pleated Long Skirt
Mercerized Cotton V Neck Flare T-Shirt
Can be a part of an ensemble too! This drape circular skirt offers endless styling options
“This blouse has a feminine feel due to its drape. Consider matching it to a skirt that’s made of a similar fabric to complete an ensemble-like look that’s perfect for summer. And you can lean on its drape fabric every day in summer because it can be washed at home and even resists wrinkling. The pictured wine red color is classy without becoming too heavy. You’ll also love how frequently you’ll be able to independently wear the top and bottom.”
Can be coordinated like denim! A contemporary, casual look is yours with this chino long skirt
“This chino long skirt has a flared silhouette and buttons down the front that are great at producing a trim appearance. Simply replace the bottoms of your regular denim look with this skirt to get a casual getup that has a whole new feel. A much more elegant and stylish look is yours if you simply coordinate all items using similar colors.”
Produce a more casual feel in this breezily swaying gathered long skirt by matching it to a striped top
“This cool and demure gathered long skirt is ideal for office looks as well due to its lustrous fabric. On days off, create a completely different feel by adding casual items, like sneakers and a striped top. A fresh pink color should enable a wholesome appearance that isn’t too sweet.”
