9 White Skirt Outfit Ideas That Are Always Chic

6. Bandeau Top + Belt + White Skirt

7. Sleeveless Knit + White Skirt + Woven Tote

8. Cotton Top + White Skirt + Flat Shoes
Style Notes: You don't need to buy a specific co-ord to create a matchy look with your white skirt—simply stick to the same material, be it cotton or linen, and it will look like the pairing was meant to be.

9. Blazer + White Skirt + Ballet Flats
Style Notes: When temperatures dip, white skirts loan themselves well to layering thanks to their neutral shade and generally simple shape. For me, nothing looks sharper than a tailored blazer thrown over a top or knit and finished with leather shoes.
