Flared Skirt – Freedom & Femininity If you are 5’11 like me, finding the right work pants or jeans that are long enough and fit properly in all the right places can be a real pain in the butt, literally. Growing up, I always had to buy trousers a size bigger, then give it to a tailor for alterations. Imagine all that stress. Any need to wonder why I prefer skirts and dresses to pants?
Why I love flared skirts and why you should too Skirts are one of the simplest, yet elegant and sophisticated clothing item a woman can own. If you are looking to increase your feminine energy, skirts should definitely be on your capsule wardrobe list. Flared skirts give the illusion of a tiny waist because of how it flares outwards from the body. Skirts also force you to walk in a ladylike manner and cover any problem areas you may have with your stomach, thighs, or legs. Think of the sashay, the freedom, and the swing of a skirt and you have a great recipe for body positivity.
What to wear with flared skirts? To balance the flare of the hem, you need a close-fitting top that stays close to your skin. Turtleneck, Bardot, Cami, and V -Neck blouses are some of the options you can explore. For a business casual look, p air your flared skirt with a button-down shirdt or blazer. For casual or sporty style, wear with t-shirts, tank-tops and crop-tops. If you are going for the oversized sweater look, adding a belt to the sweater will help define your waist.
