Midi Me

I’m not tall. 5’3″, that’s me. I love this skirt, but I was concerned that the midi length would’t be flattering on me. After wearing it, I’m happy to say that I like the length. It’s just short enough, hitting right below the knee rather than mid-calf. A few other things that I think make this skirt okay on my kinda short figure are the vertical pattern on the skirt (vertical lengthens, horizontal widens), wearing the skirt high on the waist with a belt (a midi skirt is not one to be worn on the hips), and the little bit of a heel on my boots.

Browse through Pinterest for some more midi skirt inspiration!

Also, see this post to see how else I’ve styled this top.
