What to wear with a miniskirt

by Cynthia Nellis

Clueless about which shoes and legwear to wear with your miniskirt?

Try these four add-ons to look your trendy best:

Boots
The hands-down winner for a miniskirt is a pair of boots. Lengths range from ankle-length to mid-calf to knee-high. Tall boots (a few inches under the knee) are the easiest to carry off with short skirts.

Go bare
Show off the rewards of step classes and waxing sessions with bare legs and boots. Or fake perfect legs with self-tanner or leg makeup.

Socks
Show your playful side with over-the-knee socks. Only for the young (under 20 and adventurous!)

Patterned legwear
Add soft texture to hose with subtle patterns for a ladylike look; fishnets for funk or bold graphics for a mod feel.
