Answer
A few things really stand out when I style pleated or full skirts:
- Volume with structure – I gravitate to full, swishy skirts (like that Ankara maxi) that still have shape, often pleated or circle-cut so they move when I walk.
- Pockets, always – I mention this a lot. I love skirts and dresses with pockets so I can stash ID, money, lip gloss, and tissues without a purse.
- Defined waist – I almost always add a belt or an obi-style tie to cinch the waist and balance the volume of the skirt.
- Easy tops – Chambray shirts, simple tees, or shirt-dress silhouettes that keep the focus on the skirt and my shape, not on fussy layers.
- Practical but cute footwear – enough to look polished, but still walk all day (heels only when I’m not running everywhere).
What part of that look are you most interested in copying—skirts, belts, or how I pair tops?
