I’m not big on mini skirts but I saw one of my favorite Youtube vloggers style a miniskirt and over the knee boots and she sold me on the idea of purchasing one. Her look was so simple but still ultra chic. I am very short waisted, which basically means I have a really short torso and my lower body sits higher on my body. All of this is a really long explanation, in other words, I have a high booty. I often struggle with shorter skirts because they are shorter in the back and longer in the front.
I figured that since I would be pairing the short skirt with over the knee boots that I wouldn’t look excessively leggy. I was right the boots draw the eye up to the skirt and take some of the attention from your legs. Well not all the attention but mostly people will be looking at your boots and not your bottom. Overall I love the way this look came together I think it’s an easy look that you can wear to casual Christmas parties this season.
My Inspiration
I pull style inspiration from so many different places but I love YouTube because I like seeing style on real women. I think my look is proof that your inspiration doesn’t always have to be the same size as you. I took elements from her look and made them work for my body type.
I’m linking a few miniskirts that I think will work well on my fellow curvy and short waisted sisters we have to stick together. Be sure to check: Torrid (ps this one is on sale), Simplybe, (this one is under $35), Rue 21 (yes they have plus!)
