    5 Anti-Trend Shoes That Look Classy Worn with Black Midi Skirts

    5 Anti-Trend Shoes That Look Classy Worn with Black Midi Skirts

    White midi skirts may get a lot of attention in the summer months, but I think black midi skirts might be even chicer. Just as versatile, the black hue is more synonymous with evening wear, which makes it feel polished by proxy. In fact, it’s become the piece I reach for whenever I want to look elevated with minimal effort.

    Now that it’s summer, a black midi skirt in lightweight texture—think linen, cotton and satin—is the easiest way to ensure you look chic in the face of high temperatures. I’ve been wearing mine on repeat and, in doing so, I have found five anti-trend shoe styles that make my black midis feel even more sophisticated—something I didn’t think possible.

    Below, I’ve identified what I think are the five best shoes to wear with black midi skirts for summer 2024 and beyond.

    THE 5 BEST SHOES TO WEAR WITH BLACK MIDI SKIRTS

    1. BLACK MIDI SKIRT + MARY JANES

    Style Notes: The mary jane shoe trend has blossomed this summer, and for good reason. With a comfortable flat footed finish and elegant design, the reliable shoe trend is a day-to-day staple. Styling well with a black midi skirt, a simple mary jane will compliment the feminine nature of the pretty skirt trend with ease.

    3. BLACK MIDI SKIRT + LOAFERS

    Style Notes: In my opinion, the midi-skirt length is the most versatile of the lot—styling well with heels, flats and everything in between. To give your look a grounded finish, style with autumn’s favourite shoe trend and opt for a classic leather loafer. Adding a smarter finish to the elegant skirt trend, a sleek leather loafer imparts a polished effect in a comfortable way.
