Among all the trends that we witnessed during the past few years, knit skirts are here to stay. These pieces, although they might have reminded us of our grandma’s clothes at first, paved their way to fashionistas’ wardrobes and gave the trendiest of ladies a major task: that of turning them into a must-have in every stylish woman’s closet. With this in mind, we’ve gathered a few tips to help you master this cozy yet stylish trend.

• First of all, to succeed in mastering a trend relies on choosing the pieces that perfectly fit you. When it comes to knit skirts, you definitely need to find the one that fits your silhouette to perfection in order to start building your look. So, the most important thing is to take your time browsing your options and picking the best.
• Wear your knit skirt with a relaxed-fit sweatshirt. The taller you are, the more oversized your sweatshirt can be. Pair this look with sneakers and an oversized bag to form a casual look perfect for a shopping day!
• Coordinated looks are also on trend so why not pair your knit skirt with a matching sweater? To the contrary of the common belief that coordinated looks tend to look boring, paying attention to details such as fringes and to the choice of jewelry and accessories can prove all those who think so wrong. So, in order to create a contrast, opt for knee-high boots of a contrasting color and a stylish bag, and watch yourself nail it.
• For a fashion-forward style, pair your knit skirt with a simple top and a denim jacket. With your choice of trendy accessories and statement jewelry, you can absolutely take this look to a whole new level.
• If you are short and would like to rock this trend, a monochromatic look is your way to go – think a skirt, a sweater, a pair of boots and a bag of similar hues. Besides being a safe bet, this look will certainly pack a statement!
