Legs, it's been quite a while since we've seen you. Our uniform for the last few months may have consisted of
jeans ,
leggings , or
sweatpants and a
cashmere sweater or
hoodie , but spring is quickly approaching and that's all about to change. We're swapping our cold-weather staples for some leg-bearing treasures, and the mini skirt is the perfect place to start.
Not only are mini skirts
very on-trend (just look to the
runways ,
street style , and Instagram), but they also don't need to sit in the back of your closet until temperatures rise. Buy yours now and wear it tomorrow with
tights and a
structured blazer , then style it a few weeks later with a
tee and
white sneakers . Now that we've convinced you of its styling prowess and versatility, click on to see some of our favorites — and to scoop one up before summer swoops in.
At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. All product details reflect the price and availability at the time of publication. If you buy or click on something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.
