There’s more to the mini that meets the mind. A mini skirt does not have to just be a plain and simple, square cut garment. There are so many detailed, amazing options out there that will amaze your style-gazing eyes. This Fashionista caught my eye wearing a deep violet satin pleated mini with a metallic sweater and ripped tights. The mini skirt extenuated her long legs, while it’s high waisted silhouette and bubbly shape eventuated her small waist. The deep violet was the perfect pop of color without going overboard. All of these elements combined help create the perfect mini for fall 2011.

Now that you have opened your mind to the mini skirt, here are some tips to keep in mind when searching for your perfect mini:
-A mini skirt that fits well will flatter any body type. Make sure its not too short for the occasion. Fashion faux pas are unpredictable!
-Wear a top that compliments the silhouette of your mini. If you are wearing a straight mini skirt, try something oversized or flared, but make sure it’s not too long. If you are wearing a fuller and flared mini, keep your top fitted or wear a belt at the waist to add some shape.
-A great pair of heels paired with the miniskirt will elongate your legs and make you feel on top of the world! The world is your runway, so take advantage of this!
-Have confidence! Confidence is always style’s most important accessory.
