This Elevated Skirt Trend Is the Chicest Alternative to Jeans You Can Wear This Winter
Normally when winter rolls around I completely forget about the skirts and dresses that I wore all summer long. Without even meaning to, I find myself reaching for jeans across the coldest season in a bid to stay warm, neglecting the fact that with tights and boots, a chic wintery skirt can see me through the chill in just as much comfort.
Coming to the realisation that I need to up my winter styling game, Katie Holmes' latest look has inspired me to shop one of the most elegant winter skirts of the season. Stepping out in New York in a polished and preppy look, Holmes convinced me that a glossy leather skirt is exactly what my wardrobe has been crying out for.
Choosing a style with a full silhouette, Holmes added movement and drama to her weekday look in a way that I could genuinely recreate back home on the streets of London. Falling to mid-calf, her jet black skirt picked up on the skirt length that designers have been gravitating towards this season, while the button detailing added extra texture and a sleek point of interest.
Styling her voluminous midi with pointed-toe slingbacks, a classic white shirt and a cosy knitted vest, Holme's polished ensemble had a sleek, preppy and uncomplicated energy that reminded me that winter skirt styling doesn't have to be difficult.
