Spring Alert! High-Low Skirts

Apologies for the lack of blog posts this past week! Got a ton of quizzes and tests this week to complete, (3 tomorrow) even though we're only 1 week into the 2nd semester! :S


I don't know about you, but the high-low skirt trend is popping up everywhere, and I am obsessed! So I compiled a few skirts from different stores and I'm planning to purchase 2-3 of them. And yes, I am totally aware of the fact that it is still winter, but this trend is seriously getting me excited for spring! 


Which looks intrigue you?

Wondering how to wear the look?

Have no fear! 

a) Like the picture on the left, wear a top which matches the colour of your skirt exactly and tuck it in! It will look like a nice long dress! Plus, wear a belt that contrasts the colour of your "dress" so accentuate your waist!

b) wear a white or cream coloured blouse/crop top/sweater. Any one will do, just really depends on what occasion it is for! Casual - crop top/sweater, formal/kept together look - blouse (tuck it in)!

c) Shoes? Wear HEELS. Firstly, it'll make your legs look longer & leaner. Secondly, since the back of the skirt is already long, you want to give some height, you don't want the skirt to be dragging on those grubby sidewalks...
