Alexa Chung is rocking them, and they were all over the spring runways--what more evidence do you need to run out and buy a midi skirt? If you're still not sold, let us just say that this trend is a) not as tricky to pull as you think (even if your legs aren't sticks, billowy cuts still look great), and b) carrying over into fall. Plus, these awesome, affordable options should get you inspired--click through to see our favorites.

Styling tip: A formal skirt actually looks very cool with a white T-shirt and a pair of Converse. And of course, you can also keep it dressy--go with a pair of red pumps and a plain black top for an easy, polished look.

Planning a country weekend? No? Well, even if your destination is an urban one, we think that everyone should have this skirt because it's so breezy and cool. Pair it with either sleek, all-black pieces, a tucked-in button-down or a casual tee.

If you're feeling less demure, go for something form-fitting and slinky. This wrap style keeps things sexy--pair it with a print top and a light-colored, really high-heeled sandal.
