The tassel is worth the hassle

Nothing screams sass more than a brush of tassels in your outfit. Got that major party scribbled in your diary? Don’t worry girl, we got you covered with this vibrant tassels skirt by Stella Jean. Team a pair of chic earrings with a hella cute blouse for that perfect look.

The pleated skirt

Thanks to its eye-catching design helmed by Zainab Chottani, this pleated maxi skirt is perfect for turning heads. As such, it makes a fantastic choice for special occasions. Be sure to partner your skirt with heels to keep your look from appearing too bottom-heavy and throw some ethnic jewels and don a black velvet blouse to complete your look.

Sway-with-me, tiered ruffle skirt

Ooze all the feminine vibes in this pink ruffle skirt by Alkaram. It’s no surprise that the ruffled skirt trend is one we are all heart and eyes over this season. The ruffle trend has been adding feminine flair to our tops and dresses for quite a few seasons, but the tiered, ruffled skirts are new to the party and we are loving it.

Satan’s silk

Free, floaty and boomerang-friendly – there’s a lot to love about this silk maxi skirt. Pairing this lovely floral-print silk skirt with a plain black shirt and boots makes the look really voguish. Whether you’re tall or short, curvy or column-shaped, this maxi skirt will work for you.

Take a walk on the wild side

A printed skirt is a timeless garment that always looks chic. To create this look, opt for colourful animal prints or even a scene of nature. Once you have your skirt, partner it with a comfortable top, such as a plain white top and flat sandals or even printed sneakers, and add accessories like a buckled belt.

Twirl in tulle

When it comes to special occasions, such as proms and engagement parties, a tulle maxi skirt can make an excellent option. A fantastic alternative to a traditional dress, a tulle maxi skirt offers the same polished appearance but with a modern twist. The soft shade plays the femininity of this skirt. The silver ruffled blouse enhances the look even more.
