5 Ways to Wear a Vintage Bodycon Skirt

A vintage bodycon skirt is a must-have wardrobe essential. I'd recommend a black one for ultimate versatility all year round. At My Vintage, we have lots of styles, colours, textures and sizes of vintage bodycon skirts all year round so you are sure to find one that is just right.

They are high quality, flattering for any shape and cost less than £20!

If you're not yet convinced on how much you need one of these stretchy little wonders then here is my top 5 ways to wear one... (thanks to our current work experience girl Abby for her help!)

1. Shopping with Friends.
Styled with pink reworked tie knot top (size 10/12 - £18) and vintage Frank Usher cropped quilted jacket (size 12/14 - £85)


2. Office Chic
Styled with 70s vintage pussybow blouse (size 10 - £16) vintage black satchel bag (£20) retro geek glasses (£5) and vintage Karl Lagerfeld shoes (size 6.5/7 - £75)


3. Girls Night Out
Styled with vintage Frank Usher long sleeved sequin top (size 8/10 - £65) and black patent Shilton handbag (£15)


4. Sunday Stroll
Styled with 60s vintage striped shirt (size 12 - £18) jade green vintage bag (£14) and blue retro sunglasses (£10)


5. Lunch Date
Styled with vintage giraffe print blouse (size 16/18 - £18) black patent croc bag (£18) and round retro sunglasses (£10)


I'm sure you'll agree you need one of these bodycon skirts in your life right now! Visit our vintage shop in Darwen to try a few on, or delve into www.myvintage.co.uk for the vast online selection...
