Exclusive: Dominate Summer-Fall, Empower Your Look With Mini Skirts

Wear mini skirts without showing too much skin.

Let’s chat: I had this denim mini from ThriftCon in December.

Desi smiles with a denim skirt with stars.

It was an item I fell in love with – the distressed deconstructed denim goodness that college me fighting the current me over. Until…

The skirt didn’t fit the maximized glutes I got from the gym.

Skirts With the Boots

Desi stands in front of a mirror, wearing a jacket over a shirt and tank top. She has black boots and a light teal blue bag.
First time wearing the skirt out. However, I became a lil embarrassed because the skirt rides up a little.

I wore this skirt out for the first time at a local sale, and not gonna lie I ate that outfit up. The synergy with the denim jacket + button-down combo, unmatched. I added a pop of color with the accessories in the most Desi way possible.

Just know, it’s not a Desi outfit without accessories, interest (we’ll explain it in the next few blogs), or colors.

However, the skirt rode up with daily activities. I did some shopping throughout the day – thrift market, Southpark trip, visiting places in town.

Note to self: be careful of how long your mini skirts are before buying.

Fast forward to now, I had an idea.

I celebrated the Olympics closing ceremony by wearing it over pants to break up the all-white outfit.

As critical as I am about America, I was all about the red white, and blue for the girls this summer (and yes, Jordan Chiles DESERVED that medal).

But about the outfit though…

Mini Skirts Over Pants

Desi wears a mini skirt over a pair of white pants and corset top. She stands in front of a building. Wear your mini skirts like this for cooler weather.
Top: Hanifa, Bottoms: Shush, Shoes: New Balance
Desi has a beautiful black, red, blue, green, and fuschia floral scarf.
Scarf: TrunkShow

One thing about me, I’m accessorizing. This scarf has the perfect red and blue touches to finish the gold-medal look.

When styling short skirts for the fall, I LOVE layering over pants for a unique look. I prefer a wide-leg style because it feels updated.

Now that we finally appreciate skirts + dresses over pants, did anyone participate in wearing skirts over leggings in elementary school? If you do, it’s your time to shine!

Now I need y’all to comment down, which trend you participated in 2017-2019 are you bringing back?

Let’s meet again in the next blog. Get up to date with our last post.
