Skirt UP!!

There’s something so cool and comfortable about a skirt. It makes you look stylish, very down-to-earth (that depends), and fun. I mean, yes, we all LOVE jeans – but too much of blue can be boring. So why not throw this fun cloth into your wardrobe, especially when the mercury is getting hotter by the day…

When it comes to skirts, one has immense variety to choose from. Different lengths of hemlines, straight or flared, patterned, textured, plain, wild, with or without boots / tights.. it can never be boring!
I surfed around and collected some really beautiful looks with skirts, from style-arena and The Sartorialist and from here...

Tamed:
The gypsy look under control - those shoes rock!
Experiments and Observations:
Ethnic jacket, long skirt, a bindi and kool hair-do. Love her!
I dare you..
No really..he's carrying it with such elan.
Dare you -II
That's a dhoti, btw...

Tried and tested:
Team a floral patterned long skirt with a Tee in solids and flats, so you don't end up looking too girly.
Layering about:
Simply gorgeous - and notice the purple tee.
Naughty Schoolgirl:

Don't we all know this? I'd love to ape it, down to the fuschia bangles.
Miss Goody-shoes:
Goes Orange! Hail, Hail!
Cute with a Capital C
That seablue with brown boots - drool...

Marimekko

"Marimekko's ready-to-wear collections offer high-quality, functional clothing for all occasions, including business, leisure and evening wear. The collections comprise woven fabric garments, knitwear and jerseys, which are chiefly made from pure natural materials: cotton, wool and linen."
It's modern, fresh, bold and fun! Not neccesarily what I would wear, but I love the quirkyness of the individual pieces...pleats, bows and ruffles make them look very feminnine yet not over-the-top cute.
