A few weeks ago I shared a babble slideshow about 15 trends for women this fall. I’ll be going into detail once a week for the next few weeks about each of the trends: what we {really} think of the trend, tips for making the trend work {for a real woman}, and where to buy it for a deal.

What do you think of this skirt length? It’s called tea length, and it’s the new knee length this season. It hits right below the knee and I think it’s really classy. A full or accordion/pleated style, like the hot pink H&M one below, can sometimes exaggerate hips (remember when I went back and forth about my new pleated skirt here?) so it’s best to wear something fitted and tucked in on top to emphasize your waist. Maybe even pair it with a fun belt. Slip on some high heels to elongate your legs. What do you think? Is this a length that would work on you?

The look: J.Crew Two Tone Circle Skirt $250
The deal: H&M Pleated Skirt $12.95

Other great options:
Asos Midi Tailored Flare Skirt $57.50
H&M Flared Graphic Skirt $59.95
Zara Flared Skirt $79.90
J.Crew Jardin Skirt $88
