If You’re Not Into Slip Skirts, This Elegant Trending Style Is Definitely Worth Trying

As we very slowly inch towards the spring season, I’ve started to gradually phase some chic skirt styles into my outfits that will carry me well into the warmer months. In doing so, I noticed that I own a lot of satin and silk slip skirts, but that I’m seriously lacking in other options. Whilst the elegance and versatility of a satin slip skirt are undeniable and will forever have a place in my capsule wardrobe, I must admit that, with temperatures still far from spring-like, I’m in desperate need of a more weather-appropriate skirt that I can wear now in place of my jeans and tailored trousers. Enter the pinstripe skirt.

Although I’ve never owned a pinstripe skirt, I’ve invested in multiple pinstripe trousers over the years which I’ve worn constantly. So after seeing the likes of Hailey Bieber sporting one, I knew it was a style that I should try out myself.

Versatile and timeless (usually available in anti-trend colours like black, cream, navy and grey), a pinstripe skirt pairs well with everything from neutrals to bold colours and other prints. You can also choose from whichever length you like too—there are minis, midis and maxis all over the market.

Unlike slips, you can select your pinstripe skirt from a range of different materials, including thicker wool iterations to keep you warm until spring and linen styles for when the weather finally levels up. Personally, I’ll be investing in a thicker iteration to wear with my jumpers, cardigans and long-sleeve tees.
