How to Wear Bubble Skirts

Early this month The Wall Street Journal has an article on the bubble skirts in their paper edition. The article said that we like it or not the bubble skirts have made their come back and it created a problem. The problem is that not everybody can wear the skirt. At that time when I was reading the article, I didn't realize the magnitude of the problem until I saw Nicky Hilton picture wearing Just Cavalli on Milan Fashion Show runway. She looks like a giantess wearing a short bubbly ruffle dress! And I'm sure she is not that big in real life.

I'm sure you can sport the style and pull it off without feelling that you weight 20 lbs heavier. Here are some tips that works for me (I'm petite and have big hips n thighs, if these work for me it'll definitely work for you):
- wear (footless) leggings underneath the skirt
- wear a longger skirt underneath (today's all about layering anyway!*-*)
- avoid mini skirts
- get 1 or 2 size bigger that you usually wear
- as much as you can, in the fall/winter/Spring, wear it with a pair of tall boots that will elongate your legs
- avoid wearing it with ankle boots and flats
