Trend Report: High-Waisted Skirts

Sport a cute look with a high-waisted skirt this spring season! High-waisted skirts go good with a long boyfriend cardigan, ballet flats and simple tank top. Other options are gladiator sandals, peep-toe heels or just simple flip flops. They can be girly, casual, sophisticated and laid-back.

For a more casual look, try this high-waisted suspender skirt from Forever 21. Suspenders replace a belt in a more laid-back casual setting. You can pair this look with TOMS Shoes or canvas ballet flats.

Florals are a big hit for the spring season! Try this floral skirt from Heritage 1981!

For a more business casual look, try this Batik printed skirt from Gap. It looks great with heels and accentuates the legs. You can try this look at a sorority meeting or school day.

Spring is also all about sophistication. This Lace-Trim Swiss Dot Skirt from the LC Lauren Conrad Collection at Kohl's can be perfectly paired with a white t-shirt, and tan ballet flats. Great for simple casual day at school!

The thing that's great about high-waisted skirts, is that there's always an option to wear different accessories and other things to mix and match your look. Cardigans are always good to bring for those breezy spring days. Blazers are also an option. The best accessory would be a cross-body bag.

There are so many fabrics with these skirts: chiffon, silk, cotton, etc. No matter when and where, a high-waisted skirt can always be an option!
