Plain Black

When in doubt always go for black. Kareena Kapoor looks extremely stylish in this simple and conventional black pencil skirt. A lace top would look good with this skirt and so would a formal shirt.

Plain White

Summery In Lace

Delicate Hues

When you have a skirt that is shaded with delicate hues like this one, wear it with a bright and bold coloured blouse.

Try Funky Patterns

Silk Skirts
