Fortunately, manufacturers throughout the board appear to be working exhausting at releasing new variations of this trending jean-skirt fashion, however warning: Every one sells out quicker than the final.

However once I threw on this outsized graphic tee, I found out {that a} dramatic-size high simply wanted to be tucked or tied up in a manner in order to not overwhelm my body.

This outfit got here collectively extra unexpectedly edgy than I going for, however I needed to see if platform loafers and a bomber jacket — two of my fave wardrobe gadgets this yr — may work with a denim skirt.

The socks and loafers had been a straightforward sure for me (I feel they may make even a sweatsuit look cool), and the bomber jacket was additionally a pleasantly enjoyable pairing; though I’m undecided I might at all times attain for a faux-leather model to pair with the skirt. Maybe a bomber that’s rather less heavy and slightly silkier can be simpler to put on (oooh, or perhaps a structured bomber like this).

Again to high

The truth that the denim midi skirt works effectively with sneakers, boots, ballet flats, flip-flops and loafers is a fairly exhausting promote for me. I initially fearful this trending merchandise can be a bit too fashionable, but it surely appeared to go additional in my wardrobe than I may’ve ever anticipated.
