how to wear skirt in winter

Can you wear skirts in the winter? To answer that question, I try to answer it with two different types of response. The first type is skirt outfit ideas that actually look good and will keep you warm, while the second type is outfits that looks stunning when wintertime comes but only for those who are not afraid of the cold. I love the idea of wearing skirts in the winter, compared to just wearing boring and dark clothes all the time. Let’s check out some of my favorite ideas now.

Let’s start with one that uses a stunning color in royal blue. Simply wear a grey top with a high waisted royal blue skirt and a black leather jacket. Pair the outfit with royal blue heels. The fact that the skirt and the shoes has the exact same bright color makes the outfit look so unique and eye catching. By the way, if you are a fan of the bright blue color, check out our other blog post on how to wear royal blue.
