Sometimes I really wonder why I bother to throw anything away. Fashion is so cyclical, that I feel like I am recreating my wardrobe from high school, does this mean I’m getting old!?

If only I would have saved those clogs, overalls and crop tops! So if you, unlike me have a denim skirt saved, it’s time to dig it out of your closet, because this season marks the return of the mini denim skirt, and I am really loving it.

What to wear with a denim skirt in 2024?

If you’re wondering what to wear with a denim skirt in 2024 take a look at the outfit inspo I compiled in this post.

As a rule however, I like to think of a denim skirt as another piece of denim, like a pair of jeans. Both versatile and can be easily dressed up for formal occasions like work or evening out.

Depending on the length and wash of the denim, you can dress it up for work, or a night out. Make a Canadian tuxedo with a chambray top (which is  still my favorite and  most versatile item in my closet), or make it comfy day wear with a pair of converse.

But also, denim skirt is a great option for casual on the go outfits. I simple way to think of when styling a denim skirt for casual days is to pair it with items you would typically pair with denim shorts.

Why not just wear denim shorts than? You might ask. Because I believe a denim skirt particularly in 2024 can make you look polished and chic.

What Top To Wear with Denim Skirt?

When thinking about how to style a denim skirt, particularly what top to wear, I suggest thinking of a denim skirt as any pair of jeans. It’s truly flexible. Want to pair it with a top for evening out, or a simple white tee for a cool mom outfit.

I also really love a simple button down tucked in with a belt. This look would work really great for the office.

You can also pair a denim skirt with a cardigan. I like a cropped cardigan closed as a top. Or a longer cardigan opened with a t shirt or tank tucked in.

If you’re on the market for denim skirts, Nordstrom options are pretty on point, from a-line denim skirt to pencil, mini or knee length, distressed or dark denim. Personally, I’m loving the heavy distressed look in a light denim. I’m also a big fan of colored denim skirts. Especially white or black denim skirt are a great capsule wardrobe item.

I love pairing a denim skirt with a tank and throwing a sweater over my shoulders for extra warmth. I also love how a pointed heel elongates the leg with a skirt.

Though, I also find that midi skirt outfits work really well with sneakers. Basically to style a midi skirt, I suggest treating it similarly to a pair of jeans or denim cut offs. An essential and easy item to grab from your closet that will likely go with everything.

For longer shirts or t-shirt I recommend tucking them into the skirt to create more of a shape and belting the skirt for waist definition to break up the silhouette. I’ve been loving this Madewell belt, it adds a perfect amount of flair to any outfit.

Shoes to Wear with Midi Skirts

A midi denim skirt goes really well with pointed toe heels or even ballet flats. This helps elongate the leg. I suggest avoiding a chunky boot or heel with midi skirts. In colder months, you can pair black or dark stockings with a sleek boot. An all black look will also help elongate the leg.

For casual style, I love pairing denim skirts with sneakers. I think it creates a fresh and modern look. For effortless style, I love samba sneakers or these classic reeboks.
