What better way to bring a midi skirt into the Winter season than with a cool, cosy sweatshirt and some beautiful boots! Well that’s the approach I’m going with anyway. Even though the weather is appalling outside at the moment, I am refusing to let go of my midi skirts and if you feel the same way, here’s what I’d pair them with during the cooler months:
The Sweatshirt/Jumper
Snug and practical without compromising on style, a cosy sweatshirt or knit is the perfect match for your midi. My sweatshirt is from Topshop (available here) and is another purchase from my trip to Dublin. Oversized sweatshirts and knits (especially roll necks) look effortless and chic with midi skirts. Cropped knits look great too if you want to highlight your waist a little more!

Sock Boots
The boots I’m wearing are possibly the most fabulous pair of boots I have EVER bought. Truly, they are what boot dreams are made of and I am quite obsessed! They’re from Topshop (surprise!) but the glossy leather and tortoiseshell heel make them look like they could be designer. Plus, as they sit a little higher above the ankle, they give you a little more coverage on the legs which means extra warmth! Sock boots are huge this season and I can see why!
Top off the look with a long woollen coat, fluffy beanie and scarf and you’re all set to carry your midi skirt through another season! Shop my top 5 picks for midi’s below:
