4. Crochet Skirts

The ‘70s called and they want their crochet skirts back! A huge trend then and a huge trend now, crochet skirts have made a comeback for the Summer and we’re not mad about it. Whether you’re into the simple and plain look or the bold and intricately detailed look, crochet skirts are comfy, stylish and a great way to incorporate colour and texture into your outfits.

You can take these styles from street to beach by teaming them with a button up shirt, bikini top and chunky sandals or go for the matching top and heels for an effortless ensemble!

5. Asymmetrical Skirts

Nail your Spring-Summer looks with the perfectly imperfect asymmetrical skirt! Just like cropped blazers, asymmetrical skirts offer a fresh and modern take on business-casual styling. Doubling up as workwear and casual wear, they’re available in a range of styles, colours and lengths - so the outfit possibilities are endless. This trend is for those who want to serve effortlessly chic looks all season long without doing too much.

POV #1: You have a work meeting at 9 and a dinner date at 6. Take on a suit-style asymmetrical skirt and pair it with a blouse, heels and a mini handbag for a sleek desk-to-dinner look!
POV #2 : You want to hop on the asymmetrical skirt trend but want a more casual, everyday option. Look into a plain or bright asymmetrical skirt that isn’t too corporate-y and team it with a basic tee and sneakers for a more pared down look!
