I love wearing skirts and lately, I have been drawn to wearing midis, the in-between length that most of us (including me)
are a little afraid to wear because it may make us look frumpy. I decided to get over the fear and go back in time to the 50’s where style icons like Grace Kelly wore the midi with remarkable elegance and class. The midi skirt or tea skirt, if styled properly, can work wonders for many of us. It accentuates the waist and when paired with pumps can make your legs look a mile longer. The midi can gracefully cover those spider veins and other things we don’t like so much and rest assured you will look amazing! The skirt I am wearing below was created by my lovely and very talented friend Silvia Helena. I decided to pair it with a black cropped top to create a look that is more ladylike but just know that a midi skirt looks equally fantastic with a casual top like a graphic sweatshirt or worn-in denim jacket. So now go ahead, be creative and wear the midi any way you like it but don’t forget to tell me about it:-) Blessings to you all my friends! Love, Ms. Jeannie.

The outfits I put together are for your inspiration and you may be able to find similar pieces in your closet to achieve the look.   However, to provide you with more options, I have included below the links to the same or similar pieces in case you are interested.
