Named after the frilly, full-skirted costumes ice skaters wear, skater skirts began appearing as early as '07 in the Missoni Fall 2007 runway show and the Proenza Schouler Spring 2008 show. Since then it's been everywhere from Forever 21 to Dolce & Gabbana.
The skater skirt is popular not only for its flattering shape that works on virtually every body type, but also because of its versatility. They can be easily dressed up or down and work in any wardrobe.
Anything in your closet can go with a skater skirt. Go classy casual with a button up chiffon shirt and a pair of flats, or urban chic with a graphic tee, a snapback and a pair of high tops.
Remember how I said they work on everyone? Yeah, they do. Whether you're a curvy girl or a thin chick, skater skirts will look wonderful on you by accentuating your natural waist and flaring out to flatter your hips (or lack thereof).
Neon is still very on trend, so mixing bright hues and skater skirts is a winning combination.
Have no fear! The less adventurous can still rock this trend. Just add a button-up blouse and some cute flats and you're set! (Ps, how cute are those kitty flats?!)
Of course, Nordstrom has some fab choices as well.
