For me, being vertically challenged has led to mini skirts becoming midi skirts which goes below the knee, this fashion must have brings class and modesty back into an outfit, which is what I absolutely love. This trend came about 2012 and hit its peak during this time, but for an all year look, the midi can worn at any time and is still trendy. It's one of my favourite clothing items because typically a skirt can never go out of fashion, short, long, mid-length, the skirt can always be a go to if you're in a  fashion dilemma. Midis come in different shapes like the triangle shape at the front while the rest of the skirt flows behind, it can be a pencil skirt which often tucks around the legs nice and tight creating a nice silhouette shape or a bubble skirt which spurts out and around the legs. No matter the type of midi, it's a simple look that can be pulled off. I like to team up any skirt with a top or blouse that's either short or long sleeve. Either wear a jacket over the top of your look or team up a midi with a sweater of some sort. Preferably, I wear midi skirts with a shoe that has height of some sort, so your legs are elongated. If you're going for a casual look, I recommend a creeper shoe, a wedge or platform sandals. For the more dressed up, formal look, go for a stiletto or classic platform heel. One of the looks I go for is a crop and midi skirt, matching two must have clothing items is great and easy, I typically like a midi skirt that sits above the waist for a crop top look but there's nothing stopping you from rocking the midi with a crop even if it sits on your waist. Another look I try to pull off is wearing any top, loose or tight that can be tucked in subtly or if you want a "I didn't even try" look, tuck in a top loosely at the front and let it flow from the back if it's short, if it's long tuck it all in loosely.

Through my online browsing adventures, I noticed the wide-legged pant has made a come back, it felt like I teleported back in time to the disco era. I typically was a bit iffy with this returning fashion trend, but it's grown on me. I think you can make a statement in these pants even if they're simple, a crazy pattern is not need as the design is really out there already and will get heads turning and eyes widening. The "is she really wearing those" pants can be worn to make the right fashion statement. Although I've not tried this trend for myself and don't own a pair of these wonders, I'm seriously considering buying a pair because the looks I've seen are really on point. I would go for a neutral coloured pant, so think of your whites, your creams or a nude palette, each of these coming back, don't be afraid to go for simplicity. Team up a wide-legged pant with a crop top, or tuck in a top, add a heel to the ensemble and voila you're done, keep it simple.

Now this sandal has been around for a while, big names like Nike and Adidas have advocated this for a long time now with a bit of a struggle. In the 90s, these sandals were relatively popular, especially the platform slide, but now they've made quite the comeback like many of the fashion trends mentioned. I personally am not a fan of the slides with socks but I guess fashion is fashion and has become quite a statement for celebrities, specifically the Olsen twins who absolutely rock the look. I've also found it difficult to see how such a masculine item can be worn with style, but I've proven myself wrong and it can look feminine and fashionable. Katie Cassidy has really been advocate for these slide sandals and I'm really feeling like she's started the revolution. I'm a huge fan of the platform slides and have brought myself a pair since I like to add height to everything I wear. The flat ones are just as good too. You can get these shoes in many styles, colours and heights and they're perfect for nearly anything and everything you wear, which is what you want in a shoe, versatility is vital. These little beauties are referred to as pool slide sandals because they're easy to slip on and go, this essentially is the best thing about these shoes.

Slider sandals come in different shapes, colours and size, the variety is endless.
