What To Pair With a Mini A Line Skirt Outfit

Pairing solid, simple fitted tops like a white button up helps balance the outfit out by keeping your eye on the statement piece, and keeping the rest clean and simple. A great button up works well or you could opt for a cotton shirt or fitted turtleneck.

I went with a simple button up, cream ankle booties and a green bag, for cooler days I added a camel coat that’s not too bulky but rather compliments the shape of the outfit.

What Shoes to Wear With An A Line Skirt Outfit

In terms of footwear either ankle boots, knee high boots or loafers in a neutral colour or solid black works the best. I went with an ankle boot because I like the height and showing off a bit more leg, that’s my personal preference! They also add length to the leg because of the light neutral colour.

Tips for Layering An A Line Skirt Outfit

  • Be mindful of top layer length
  • Make sure your top is purposeful, if its a slouchy sweater give it a nice front tuck
  • Stay away from any layers or tops that add too much bulk when tucked in, this could be a length issue
  • Play around with boot height

I like to make sure my layering piece is around the same length as the skirt, but if you prefer longer or shorter you can opt for your length of choice. Keep things clean by layering with a solid structured coat or cropped jacket.

If you want a more cozy look switch out the coat for a cardigan, this is ideal for an office environment while sitting at your desk a cardigan can act as a blanket and keep you warm all day.
