Shoe:Occasion Ratio
There’s so much to be said about the perfect midi skirt. The versatility is matchless as a different shoe can change the trajectory of your look. My current favorites to pair with my midi skirts consist of a closed toe pump for work, an open toe sandal for date night/evening, slides for brunch, and tennis for Saturday errands.
Designer vs Standard
Through my shopping conquests both in store and online I have noticed the difference in midi skirt length given price point, designer, etc. I prefer a midi skirt that hits right below the knee to the shin area and it seems that only designer or higher priced skirts fit that description. A standard (non designer) midi at best will come directly below the knee. Am I the only one who’s noticed this? For example, here is a standard JCrew midi skirt…notice length
Skirt: JCrew
…now observe this midi skirt from JCrew Collection, a higher end designer-like sector of the brand…
Skirt: JCrew
Do you see my plight!? I don’t know why this is but it seems that the standard midi skirts I purchase rarely come in the correct “midi” length (that perfect below knee to shin range)
Current Selections
As frustrating as this can be fortunately this seasons fashion has taken a slight shift. I have discovered several purse-friendly “perfect length” midis that I wanted to share!
Nordstrom: Chelsea28
Zara
JCrew
ASOS
And finally, the perfect designer midis that are currently out of my price range but won’t be for long 😏 Gucci everything
NOTICE THE LENGTHS! I’m just sayin…lol
