I am 5 ft tall…a combo rectangle/inverted triangle. Proportion is everything for me. At 65 yrs old I’ve tried to wear midi’s several times over the decades. They absolutely do not work on me. I like the way they look, so casual and cute. I knew when I clicked on you that this wasn’t going to help me personally. But I enjoy what you show us. 👍🏻
I loved the styles with a low to mid heel on you. Trainers just appear to clunky, flats not as bad. The front tuck is almost a must, even just a slight one. I agree a shorter jacket is the most flattering if you’re going to layer. For myself I personally wouldn’t wear a midi denim skirt. I would look and feel overwhelmed. I might choose a midi dress however. Thanks for sharing Jamie!
Thank you for sharing! I like adding heels the best as well!
Thank you for watching anyway!
I might have your body type. Try a calf length skirt that's a size larger than your usual so the waist band sits at lower torso and near your hips. Wear with a lower cut V-neck top (ironically this makes the top area look less prominent). Key is to wear the skirt below your natural waist line and closer to the hip bone. Throw on a casual 1 or 2 inch sandal. This is my go to summer style and works like a charm. I actually look best in straight denim skirt at ankle length with side slits that don't go any higher than my knee area. I'm 5'3" 115 lbs, but my waist is almost same measurement as my hips, breasts are almost as wide as my shoulders. I've even had denim skirts tailored to fit as described and well worth the minimal cost.
Your favorite look with the green fitted top and nude espadrilles is my favorite too. Pretty much all of the rest look old fashioned frumpy church style
Haha you think so!?
your videos and comments about how to put clothes together are thought provoking and interesting as far as putting a wardrobe together. Thank you.
I'll give you props for making a denim midi look good instead of dumpy and dull. Granted, your slim proportions made that easier, but proportion really is the key here anyway. So good job, you. Thanks for sharing.
I really like the espadrille with the green top best. I agree with you that nude shoes are perfect with the skirt!
At 5’2 and 64 yrs old I have been against midis mainly because I always thought they would make me look shorter than I am but I finally tried a floral midi from loft and I used your advice and I actually like it--so thank you!! I was getting ready to return it until I watched your video!!
Oh I'm so glad! Thank you for sharing that and I hope you enjoy wearing it! 💖
Loved your ideas, usually do..😉‼️
Thanks so much 😊
Your videos are ALWAYS helpful!! Thank you for your time and knowledge!
Thank you Bonnie!
Thanks Jamie!
Love it with the pink. Fresh!
Thank you!
Excellent!
I don’t like the tennis shoes at all with the skirt.
Much prefer the kitten heels so cute.
My favorite tops with it are both the purple ones. Very cute.
I have Loft midi jean skirt so appreciate the style advice.
Great! Thank you and thanks for sharing!
Loved these looks! Thanks for giving us all those options! ❤
Thank you!
Thank you for this video! Looking forward to trying some styles with my new summer denim midi skirt.
You are very welcome!
Jamie your videos are always helpful and informative ❣️ Thank you for the help 😊
Thank you so much!
I like the white tshirt with the light denim midi better than the pink. And the purple is even darker.
Thanks for the lovely video 😊😊 I have black denim skirt from last summer but I dont use it😮 now I got some good ideas,
I love denim with denim and wih white blazer as well❤
Great! I hope you will wear it now!
I love the skirt with the tweed jacket. I purchased that jacket several weeks ago and have worn it so much. It goes with so many things and I just love it.
I'm so glad you have it Cathy! It is so good with so many things!
Great ideas! I just bought a light denim and cream denim skirt. Excited to style them. You've given great ideas and tips! Thanks for sharing!💕
Awesome! Thank you!
I love your videos. I need to get a long denim shirt. Any suggestions?
Very well done, thank you for this video. I do like both the denim & white jacket I think that one would work with a crop style or strappy tight top? Great looks!😗
Love love love your videos! Since you mentioned this... I think you can get away with the longer blazer if you had a less contrasting color instead of the purple. Something that just blended. I think the longer jacket is helpful if you have a tummy and want to hide it. It creates that column through the center of the body that helps flatter and diminish a larger waist. And of course it should never be buttoned and the sleeves should always be pulled up :) Oh but I'm also taller so perhaps it works better for that reason too :) Loved the pink tweed outfit. Excellent tips, thank you!
Love this, thanks for sharing! I agree with you and yes if you are taller it makes a big difference. With your suggestions if you add a taller heel it would probably work. 👍
Enjoyed.
Thank you!
Loved this video, inspired me to try something different :)
I'm so glad!
Just cannot get on board with the midi denim skirt but thank u for showing the looks.
I'm sorry Darry. Thanks for watching anyway! 💖
Great Video!
Thank you!
Very helpful 😊
Thank you!
Midi skirts are tough for us petite ladies - 5 feet tall, short waisted. Proportion is crucial!
Yes it is!
Hi Jamie. I really like how the denim skirt looks on you. They just never have looked good on me. Maybe because I’m 5”2…
Thank you! You may just need to find the right one! Maybe a knee length?
Honey you help me a lot. I'm only 5' one and I'm kind of fun. I'm kind of dumping myself so I have a hard time with my little bellies and putting on clothes. So maybe you can kind of help me with that
I'm so glad you find my content helpful!
Beacause I live in a smaller community denim skirts must be an online purchase. I found the perfect skirt and now I am deciding whether to push the buttons on a not on sale skirt. I have always loved denim skirts.
You should definitely try one! I order online a lot as well.
I liked the information you showed n it all rang true but I would have liked to see different colors n styles of midis... I love this style but I'm short n heavy n really wonder what I should wear or maybe I shouldn't at all... this was a strait column skirt... what about an a-line in light blue or white... or in black or indigo... trumpet in knee high or midi... I am just starting my journey to find my perfect denim skirt... thank you for your videos I always learn...
Thanks for your suggestion. It's really hard to create a video like this in that many items but maybe a video on how to find the right skirt length would probably be good.
@@YourGuideToStyle oh I know it would be hard with that many garments I agree... I sew n it's had to even sew that many silhouettes to even figure out the style let alone colors... I'm not very techie but it would be cool if technology would help us out... lol... too much to hope I know... but seriously... your videos are wonderful... thank you for all the hard work you do to share your knowledge...
Don't like the lime color with the skirt but love the shoes.. Purple tops looks a bit too little girlish. Look for different top.
Love these style…what brand is that midi skirt?
It is from Mango!
Informational, but I would have liked to see other denim skirts
Thanks!
Where do I buy a denim skirt? Can’t find them anywhere
Have you looked at Mango? That's where I got mine and it's linked. They also have a few other styles.
I understand that some women like to wear sneakers with dresses and skirts, but quite frankly I think the look is the epitome of frumpiness. With so many lovely and comfortable walking shoes available, why would anyone degrade their look by wearing a utilitarian shoe that looks so jarring with feminine apparel? You brought out the best in the skirt with the more form-fitting tops and summer sandals. In the fall and winter, the skirt would pair perfectly with high boots and slightly cropped knit sweaters. The denim skirt has the versatility to be worn year-round, with perhaps the exception of those unbearably hot summer days.
Several designers are showing jean skirts just below the knee and with darker wash--Banana Republic, Evereve, Boden. I like the darker wash and it looks better on me--I am an autumn. Could you do a video with this type of skirt? I have trouble with trainers too. When they are bulky like a running shoe I think they get very close to frumpy. I prefer a nude or tan sandal with a bit of a heel. 12:51
I have had trouble finding a darker one but I will try. This will be great for the fall as well. I know that trainers can get close to looking frumpy if they are not styled right. Also, if someone has larger feet it might be tough. But a sleek lace up will work great for most people. I try to put things together that people may not think they could try but I know they won't work for everyone.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Denim is too stiff/heavy of a fabric (for me) in a midi or maxi length, so if I was to purchase one I would probably go knee length with the slit in the back. To get a similar denim look in a midi, I would go with a light blue challis made to simulate denim with contrast stitching & metal buttons. I owned a denim maxi back in the 70s. It buttoned all the way down the front & was slightly A line. I always wore a tie front top with it & left the bottom few buttons undone for ease of walking. Your black platforms remind me of shoes I owned then, only mine were in tan. I am top heavy so I like more fullness in a skirt unless it's a knee length pencil skirt. If I were to style this skirt for myself, I would probably wear a fitted black tank or tee, black belt, black leather bag, combat boots or black gladiator sandals layered with a black fitted button up shirt (could be sleeveless)worn as a vest/jacket. Loved the moto vest! I think this skirt is very versatile & could be styled sporty, edgy or even romantic/feminine depending on your mood/need.You could carry it into Fall/Winter with tights & boots easily.
Thanks for sharing! I had a love maxi denim skirt that buttoned all the way up the front in the 90's lol! It all comes and goes right!? I think this will be great in the fall and winter as well!
This may sound strange but in the part of the US where I live, long denim skirts are associated with a certain culture. Especially worn with sneakers. That said, I always enjoy your videos regardless if I like the outfits
That's interesting. Where do you live, if you don't mind me asking?

Now imagine someone petite but with a bigger belly. Once the t shirt is tugged in the belly shows up, so does a shorter t shirt. Sometimes I wish people would consider these factors when giving out styling advises and suggest other possible alternatives.
I will have to think more about that. I'm not sure it's totally off the table and there are other things that I will start to mention if that's helpful.
The pink accessories outfit was the best...the jacket elongated the outfit which is what was needed. That skirt is a bad length in my opinion.
Thank you so much. I'm glad you liked it.
Love the denim jacket but white blazer too long, yo are right on on that. a shorter white jacket would be ok, though. Striped shirt is ok, but shoes look awful
How can a midi be made a bit more modest for those that wear hijab? Also someone that has a belly 😅
Sorry, those sneakers make the outfit look frumpy
