Short skirts
The most beautiful and attractive girls necessarily have in their wardrobe such an item of clothing as a mini-skirt. It will help to emphasize all the advantages of the figure and reveal natural sexuality. But in order to defeat the strong half of humanity on the spot with your sexuality, you must be sure of the irresistibility of your forms. After all, a short skirt is undoubtedly the strongest weapon of any brave and self-confident girl.
A bit of history
Mini-skirts appeared on world catwalks in the mid-60s of the last century, by the British couturier Mary Quant. There is a story about how she came up with the idea to shorten a truly feminine wardrobe item.
Once, seeing how the hem of a long skirt got confused at her friend's feet when cleaning the floors, she came up and immediately cut the length above the knee. And already next week, a new collection of skirts appeared in the windows of her Bazar store, which she called “mini” - from the then popular Mini Cooper car. In just one day, this collection was sold out. Having passed all the tests of contempt and censure, the mini skirt has become a symbol of the sex revolution and recognition of the equality of men and women.

Today, a mini-length skirt is in the wardrobe of every fashionista. It is impossible to imagine any fashion show without a demonstration of models of skirts above the knee, various variations of which are full of bright colors and a variety of cuts.
Styles
As mentioned above, in order to afford to wear a mini-skirt, you need to have some courage and self-confidence.
If you think that your proportions are close to ideal, but a little short of the covers of fashion magazines, with the help of a properly selected style, slightly correct the visible imperfections.
Let's make a reservation right away that the mini can only be worn with thin legs, since they are completely open and cannot be visually corrected. Visually, you can reduce large or widen narrow hips, and emphasize the waist line with the height of the landing.
Flared and curvy
Fluffy skirts look very feminine and romantic. They suit almost all girls, hiding wide hips especially well behind their volumes. Modern fashion trends give girls the opportunity to feel like the characters of a beautiful fairy tale, where you can afford to become a princess in a fluffy dress, and not seem funny at the same time.
When choosing a fluffy mini-skirt model, special attention should be paid to comfort. Constantly tugging at the bottom of the skirt can darken the impression you make. When trying on a product, be sure to walk, bend over a little, squat down - if you feel confident and your movements are not constrained, feel free to purchase this thing.
Tiered skirts can be suitable for those who need to visually enlarge their hips. It is important to choose the right colors here. For example, alternating bright blue and white tiers will draw your attention, while static stripes will balance your silhouette.
Pleated mini skirts are also a very popular model. They give the figure a special grace and lightness. But it should be borne in mind that only very slender girls can wear such skirts - they visually add volume, which should not visibly turn you into a donut. Wearing such skirts is appropriate with a blouse or top. The color should be chosen according to this principle: if the top is bright, then the skirt will be delicate pastel shades, and vice versa - the colorful motley bottom obliges you to wear a blouse of restrained tones.
In the collections of recent seasons, flared short skirts with flounces prevail. They give your look a flirty and playful look. Sewn from silk, these models will surround you with a veil of romance and weightlessness.
Flared mini skirts with a curly pleat in the front will turn you into a naughty schoolgirl. Such models "a la Tatu" today are very popular among fashionistas due to the presence of a peplum - a wide frill that is sewn on one level with the waist. It is better to wear such skirts in calm weather, and, just in case, wear opaque underwear.
The sun
The pattern of a short skirt in the shape of a sun is built on the basis of a circle, in the center of which a circle is cut out for the waist. This cut will give you the naughty look of a nasty girl who always wants to have fun and dance around. When choosing a short skirt of this style, you should pay attention to light flowing fabrics that will develop in the wind. A sun skirt with a matching top will create a full-fledged cocktail suit in which you will be irresistible!
Pencil
Today, the standard mini-skirt model is the pencil model. Such skirts of a solid color look strict and elegant. You can diversify the style with the help of multi-colored prints and decorative elements in the form of asymmetric shapes. The clasp can also serve as a kind of decoration - buttons or a belt in a contrasting color will emphasize the sensuality and taste of the owner of the skirt.
Summer models
In summer, short skirts are more relevant than ever. Almost all girls are looking forward to the onset of the warm season to feel the light blows of a warm breeze on their bare legs, and to flaunt the streets in mini. It's so nice to catch admiring male glances on yourself!
In the warm season, there is a place where designers' fantasies can roam. Summer collections are replete with models of mini-skirts with various bright colors - there are flowers and peas, stripes and geometric shapes, and many more different prints. The material from which summer skirts are sewn is always light, thin, it allows the body to breathe. As a rule, these are thin cotton, linen and silk types of fabrics. For flowing models, chiffon or crepe are perfect, while for pleated ones, you can consider bamboo fiber.
High waist: high-waisted
High-waisted mini skirts are a great item to showcase sexiness. Depending on the details, such a model can be appropriate in the office, and at a celebration, and in general, in any informal setting.
The high waistline favorably emphasizes the thinness of the waist, and the length above the knee temptingly demonstrates the slimness of the legs.
The color scheme of such models, as a rule, does not imply multi-colored fabrics; monochromatic mini with a high waist look much more impressive. Pastel colors will add tenderness and warmth, and a bright floral top, for example, can be a bright accent in the whole look. High-heeled shoes add the finishing touch to a seductive look. It is recommended to wear skirts with a high rise for short girls, since due to the shift of the waist line upward, the figure is visually stretched.
A little about the shortest - micro-skirts
Nowadays, the most revealing model of a skirt is undoubtedly a micro-skirt. The fact that this model fell in love with fashionistas around the world was noticed by all famous couturiers, and skirts no more than 25 centimeters long have become an integral part of all summer collections. The styles of skirts are practically no different from all styles of knee-length and lower skirts, only the length is different. In micro skirts, the bottom border barely covers the buttocks. The varied designs of the shortest skirts are mainly focused on the summer season, but there are exceptions. Today they can even be found in a business suit set.
Short skirts are usually the subject of seduction. They are suitable for skinny girls prone to the most daring experiments in their style. Therefore, there are simply no restrictions and rules in their style and color.
Black
Due to its color, the black micro-skirt is a piece of clothing that can be worn even in the office, with the right selection of the rest of the garments. If, say, you wear a strict white blouse and black leggings, then the rule of the office dress code "white top-black bottom" is quite fulfilled. In this case, it will be useful to throw on top of a cardigan or an elongated jacket to match. Various accessories will help complete a business look, such as a watch.
White
White, which symbolizes purity, will be very relevant when choosing a micro-skirt for the summer season. It will help create an image of innocence and purity, and the length of the skirt will give confidence to its owner. You can diversify the model using a fold. Such products are perfect for slender girls with a sporty type of figure. Tennis players are the main fans of white micro-skirts, which in all their glory allow them to show off their wonderful figure on the court.
Red
As you know, red is the color of passion. And in combination with a skirt of the shortest length, it becomes a formidable weapon of female seduction. This color is preferred by bold and self-confident girls who proudly and even slightly aggressively look at the world around them. The young lady in the red micro-skirt challenges the restraint in dress, being the epitome of audacity and passion.
Fabrics
The fabric for a mini-skirt should be chosen based on its purpose and style. A skirt that follows the curves of the body requires a soft and elastic material such as knitwear. If an A-shaped skirt is sewn, then the fabric should keep its shape; light and flowing model is made of silk or chiffon.Rough fabrics, such as linen or satin, are perfect for skirts with stitching or patch pockets, as well as for a tulip skirt model. For folds, soft suit fabrics that hold their shape are ideal. When choosing a fabric, seasonality should be taken into account so that it is not hot in a mini-skirt in summer and cold in winter.
With a train: the skirt is short in the front and long in the back
This model, having sunk into oblivion several decades ago, is returning its positions. And for good reason. The mini-skirt opens up the legs as much as possible, and the train as a design idea adds charm to the model.
Only the owners of slender legs need to wear such a model, since in such a skirt you will definitely not go unnoticed, and under the close attention of not only men's, but also women's views, no trifle escapes attention.
As a daily wear, a train is only suitable if the skirt is made of soft fabrics of neutral tones, and for going out or a party with colors and textures, you can experiment.
What to wear with? (+ about short top)
The owners of a slender body are simply obliged to wear mini-skirts, they are naturally given the gift to please the eyes of the surrounding men. But in order not to look vulgar and stupid, you need to choose the right top. With such a skirt, you do not need to wear a deep neckline, so as not to demonstrate all the charms at once. The mini looks good with a button-down blouse, turtlenecks, light tops with a simple cut, and shirts.
It is worth adhering to the principle of minimalism in everything - from makeup to shoes.
I would like to tell separately about the top in combination with a mini-skirt, since, in our opinion, these clothes are the perfect combination. Plain T-shirts in casual style come in handy. If, when choosing, you are not mistaken with the color and accessories, then in simple models you can look amazing in any situation.
Tights
Such an inconspicuous detail as tights is of no small importance. When choosing whether to wear them or not with a mini-skirt, you need to consider what season it is outside the window. In winter, of course, you can't do without them. But in the summer, not everyone can afford to flaunt bare feet.
If there are imperfections on the skin of the legs, such as cellulite or small varicose stars, it is still better to wear thin transparent nylon on the legs to hide these errors.
Shoes
Almost all types of shoes look great with a short skirt. A low platform is suitable for walking, but still the ideal option is a flat sole: sandals, ballet flats or classic pumps. But don't forget about shoes either.
The only limitation is high heels, in combination with a miniskirt, they look vulgar.
