We love miniskirts for their playful spirit, from flouncy cuts to sleek shapes. But sometimes, they can be tricky to style in a way that doesn't feel unsophisticated for certain occasions or like a throwback to high school. (How much did I love my cutoff style from Abercrombie & Fitch? The most.)

In warm weather, fail-safe combos range from simple t-shirts with denim minis to coordinating top-and-skirt sets in playful prints. But when it comes to stepping it up a notch for moments like meetings, a party, or a meal out with friends, we could all use extra inspiration. And that's where the street style set comes in.

The most stylish industry insiders most certainly know how to style a short skirt for every situation, whether it's for the office (which, yes, can totally be HR-approved when done right), a vacation, date night, or beyond.

So, to inspire you and ensure your miniskirt outfits are fresh, elevated, and fun, ahead, see 71 looks to emulate on your own for Spring and Summer. And if you're in need of a new miniskirt for the season, shop our favorite affordable styles from the the POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's, for $30 or less.
