These are often seen on the street with a simple tank (perfect for a blistering hot summer day! The brighter the better!!). See snippets of downtown street styles below:
The trickier part, of course, is wearing this favored summer look to the office. However, I think that this chickadee below pulls it off with effortlessness and finesse. The key is to don a demure top (sleeves are a must!), with a pair of charming ballerina flats (avoid anything too chunky and ostentatious... though a sparkly pair, like the ones she has on, helps to add some personality!).
Given the dramatic effect lent by the skirt itself, my advice for the rest of the look is – keep it simple!
