Wearing a skirt in the winter can be kind of tricky if you live somewhere that's, well, wintry. But people are doing it anyway this year because skirts are very popular. They may even be more popular than pants right now. I've noticed that stylish women are getting creative with how they style skirts as it gets colder, and I'm intrigued, as I've acquired quite a few new skirts myself recently.
As one does when it's winter and skirts are popular, I searched high and low for the best winter skirt outfits of the season so far. As you know, winter hasn't even technically started yet, and we have many months of warm outfits ahead of us. Each look that I landed upon happened to be quite elegant in its own way. (Even a pleated miniskirt can be elegant when styled the right way.) Keep scrolling to see what I mean and find out how to put together (and shop) the elegant skirt outfit trends fashion people are wearing for cold weather.
