ON DUTY

Make up for the extra inch of leg you’ll be flashing by layering on a lightweight knit over a silky button-up that drapes over the skirt’s waistline. Also, heeled loafers couldn’t hurt in this calf-baring situation, whether you slip them on over tights or not. Continue the Casual Friday vibe with a dark wash denim jacket and luxe-looking accessories like marbled sunnies, a beaded choker and a leather tablet carrycase that will forever change your professional on-the-go game.

PARTY ON

This outfit proves that you can still look fierce even when you’re not wearing a traditionally sexy color. We’re pairing the flared mini skirt with a slinky cami and lacy bralette — the latter of which will turn the rather basic separates into a getup worth a second glance. Go high-shine with the rest of your accessories to keep the look playful (+ stay in the spotlight!): a metallic mid-rise heel and a kooky wristlet means you’ll be able to own the dance floor without stumbling or snagging, while chic elements like a delicate ring and geode studs help to balance the flashier bits.

WEEKEND RETREAT

The skirt’s mod-inspired shape was just asking to be matched with other retro-feeling pieces, and lucky for you there’s plenty to pick from this season. Channel your best Penny Lane in admittedly over-the-top accessories like a faux fur jacket and rainbow-lens shades that glam up sporty basics with a distinctly ’70s vibe, ’cause why not? (after all, someone has to put the “fun” in “Sunday Funday.”) Keep the look easy and the high-low fashion contrast alive by topping off the tee and sneaks with a canvas backpack. To make it feel less costume-y, zap it back into this decade with quirky charm jewelry that boasts that you’re a #nofilter kind of gal.
