Wearing a Midi Skirt in Winter

I love a full midi skirt.  I love them so much that I don't put them away when the temperatures drop.  My secret to keeping my calk bearing beauties out all winter involves 3 things: sweaters, tights, and over the knee boots.  The sweater has to be fitted and thin so that you're not adding any more bulk to the waist.  A full midi skirt can make your waist look super tiny, so don't take away from that benefit!  Tights and over the knee boots are an obvious choice.  You don't want your legs exposed to the frigid air!  Combining them just keeps you extra super cozy.

How do you wear a midi skirt in winter?

Comfortably Overdressed

I've been accused on occasion of over-dressing.  So, on my recent vacation to Universal Studios in Orlando, I was given strict instructions to "wear sneakers" and "dress sensibly."  Well, this is as "sensible" as I get.  For me, vacation is like 50% about the outfits.  The other 50% is about the food.  I wore sneakers, albeit covered in glitter, and my skit had an elastic waistband.  I call that damn practical.

Kate Spade Plaid Midi Skirt

The weather in New Jersey has finally gotten (almost) seasonally appropriate.  So, I celebrated with a hat and gloves.  I was still able to go stocking-less.  It was winter-lite.  And now that I have driven home in my first freezing rain storm, I am over winter.  I'm glad winter's less severe cousin visited briefly though.
