Happy Tuesday! I am back from my trip to Florida, and I have a serious case of the after vacation blues! As I am looking through all of the images that we took last week, I ask myself “Why can’t I live in Florida?” Well, maybe one day, but for now I’ll just keep daydreaming about living my best life in the sunny state and plan another trip back soon! Today, I’m featuring one of my looks from the trip that I actually wore for the Fourth of July at the Boca Resort in Boca Raton. I shared some of my favorite pieces for the 4th of July in this blog post, and even though the holiday has come and gone, all of the pieces I featured can be styled several different ways for summer. Take this striped red and white linen skirt for example. Stripes are forever and midi skirts are timeless, which is why I wanted to share this red and white look and round up some of the must-have midi skirts for summer!
There is something about the silhouette of a midi skirt that feels feminine, classic, comfortable and versatile. It is one of my favorite things to wear besides a dress because it is an easy choice to slip into on a warm summer day, while still baring a bit of leg. The various hemlines, including ruffled, pleated and asymmetrical, and styles featuring high slits and side paneling, make this style a fun flirty option for summer. You can mix and match midi skirts with tops, blouses, light sweaters, and cropped blouses in various colors and patterns to create multiple looks with one piece. I styled this red and white striped linen skirt with a staple ruffle cropped blouse and my favorite pair of block heels.

This is one of my favorite ways to wear almost all skirts: mixing a simple fitted white cropped blouse, with an understated, yet a feminine pair of heels. This skirt from Mango has more of a high waisted fit, so this ruffled white blouse is the perfect pairing, as it sits just above the waistline to add a modern and playful flair to a classic midi skirt look. I always like to wear something that is a little more fitted or cropped on top, as it will help to accentuate your waist and allow the skirt to be the focal point of the look. I love this top because its one of those “goes with everything pieces” and pairs seamlessly with almost all bottoms– especially a midi skirts! Below are some of my favorite must-have midi skirts I’m loving for everyday wear, celebrations, travels and more!
