It's All About The Fringe

Fringe is usually a hit or miss in fashion -- people either love it or hate it. Quite frankly I used to tell myself that the only fringed item I would ever wear is a fringed vest, and even that was still up for debate. However, I've learned that one should "never say never", because now I've fallen in love with the fringed skirt trend.

Granted, we're all aware that trends come and go, but there's something about fringed skirts that make them a must-have staple piece in anyone's wardrobe. They're cool and funky, and they add just the right amount of edginess to spice up any simple look.

There is also quite a range of variety to choose from to suit any person's type of individual style, from leather versions for the cool rocker chick to long fringed maxis for the bohemian soul. No matter what your fashion persona is, there's always room for a fringed skirt or two in your wardrobe.

Personally I would opt for the leather option, but only because my personal style is quite dark and edgy. The best part about fringed skirts is that they are extremely versatile -- I can see myself wearing one to a rock concert, a date, an amusement park, and to outdoor festivals such as Coachella. No wonder they're considered a statement piece!

You can also pair your fringed skirt with virtually anything. A leather fringed skirt paired with a white top and a leather jacket is perfect for those who want to exude a bad girl vibe. On the other hand, you can also pair a fringed maxi skirt with a simple tank top if you're feeling a bit hippie for the day, and just layer on your favorite vest if you want to make your ensemble more interesting. The possibilities are endless and varied!
