Why You Need a Patterned Skirt and 4 Ways to Wear One

Vintage Black & White Zebra Pattern Mini Skirt - Principessa Emicranie
Marella brand / made in Italy

A graphic patterned, zanily designed skirt is a great piece to have in your wardrobe. Not only will a quirky vintage skirt (or upcycled skirt) give you a one-of-a-kind piece but it can mix and match surprisingly well with other eco fashion you already own and it can be worn for numerous occasions. Here are 4 different suggestions for starters...

Lulu Blouse - Amana
made in: morocco / made of: organic cotton

Any white blouse or shirt will lighten and soften the look of the edgy vintage skirt. A great light summer look for work that would be perfect with black strappy vegan heels (and 'Evening Tide' pink violety painted nails - Toxic Free Boutique).

Tunic Cami - People Tree
made in: india (IFAT) / made of: organic cotton

A classic spaghetti strap singlet in both black and white will sort out many a wardrobe crisis during these warmer months. Paired with the skirt, it simplifies the look and makes it casual yet cool. Adorn with chunky bracelets and cuffs and black, brown or coloured sandals.

Vintage Ultramarine Iridescent Sequin Tank - Edward Vintage
By Rue de Calais
Purchase at Etsy for $26

I know, yellow and disco infused electric blue is an unusual choice but that's kind of what I like about it (plus it's a little Balmain-ish). Pick your favourite and most flattering brightly coloured top to make this black and white skirt really pop!

Black High Neck Bow Top - Ecoganik
made in: usa / made of: organic supima jersey + organic cotton

A daring mini calls for an elegant and refined top and this Ecoganik one couldn't be more perfect. The high neck, bouncy bow detail is very flattering and I'm afraid it would encourage me to seek out a pair of equally classy black heels. I'm thinking Charmone...
