How To Style a Tube Skirt

Fashion 2025-01-24

The tube skirt is a versatile piece that embodies the effortless charm of coastal living. With its form fitting silhouette and classic design, it’s a wardrobe essential for any season. Whether you’re heading to the beach, a casual outing, or an elegant dinner, this skirt is your go-to. We're going to look at some stylish ways to wear it for different occasions.

Picking The Right Skirt

There are lots of tube skirts on the market. Make sure you pick a comfortable, high quality one. Here are some things to look out for: 

  • Choose high quality fabric, like cotton, over acrylic or polyester. 
  • An elastic waistband will be more comfortable and fitted. 
  • Ensure the fabric is thick. Thin fabric may show panty lines. 
  • A slit allows for easier movement when walking. 

I kept all this in mind when I designed the Sorrento Midi Skirt. It is available in solid colors and prints

Casual Daytime Look

For a laid-back vibe, pair your tube skirt with a matching crop top or cropped tee. Solid colors are classic and easy to accessorize. We also love a printed top or graphic tee for some flair. Add flat sandals or white sneakers for comfort and practicality.

Accessories: Complete the look with a canvas tote and oversized sunglasses for a relaxed daytime ensemble.

Boho-Chic Vibes

Balance the skirt's fitting silhouette by pairing it with a loose peasant blouse or an off-the-shoulder top. Opt for crochet or lace textures to bring in a bohemian aesthetic. Brown gladiator sandals or ankle boots are perfect for completing this look.

Accessories: Layered necklaces, bangles, and a crossbody bag with fringe detailing add the perfect finishing touches.

Beach Day Outfit

The Sorrento Midi Skirt transitions seamlessly into a beach cover-up. Throw it over a bikini top or a cropped halter for an effortless beach day outfit. Barefoot or simple flip-flops keep it easy and breezy.

Accessories: A light linen button down and straw hat offer sun protection on hot days.

Evening Glam

Create a sophisticated evening look by pairing your tube skirt with a tailored vest or by tucking in a satin camisole. Choose metallic or bold colors for added drama. Strappy heels or embellished sandals take the look up a notch.

Accessories: Statement earrings, a clutch bag, and a light shawl make this outfit perfect for dinner dates or sunset cocktails.

Transitional Weather Style

For cooler days, layer the skirt with a lightweight knit sweater or a cropped denim jacket. High-waisted styling keeps the proportions balanced. Opt for ankle boots or slip-on mules to stay stylish and comfortable.

Accessories: Add a cozy scarf and a structured leather bag to complete the look.
