The Best Silk Slip Skirts

last updated 14 August 2019

Everyone has that one item in their closet that they wish they could wear every day. For some, that item is a perfectly lived-in pair of jeans. For others, it's a simple white T-shirt. For me, it's a silk slip skirt. The first slip skirt I owned was a black version from Vince. I remember contemplating splurging on the skirt for quite some time, and once I did, there was no turning back.

I found that I could wear this skirt style in literally any way I wanted to. To work, I wear it with a simple top or blazer as pictured below. On the weekend, I style it with a graphic oversize T-shirt and sneakers. To go out, I go for a crop top and lace-up heels. When I say the styling options for this skirt are endless, I mean it. Whenever I go to my closet and want something polished yet comfortable, this is the one thing I pull time and again. Without it, I don't know what I'd wear, to be honest.

Below, shop a handful of my favorite slip skirts so that you too can partake in the breeze that is wearing a slip skirt every day.
