Wearing A Skirt In Winters

The first step is to pick a skirt or dress of your choice that you intend to wear in winters. Go for a long skirt, if the weather is very cold. The warmest for cold weather are long jean skirts and knit or wool skirts.
The next step is to find something that you can wear under the skirt. Armor, stockings or knee-high socks can be easily worn under a long skirt. Thick woolen stockings can be worn under a three-quarters length skirt. You can take a look in the pantyhose section of your local department store to find thick knitted stockings. However, beige stockings are going to be your best bet, as they look good under almost everything.
Layer your undergarments to protect yourself against the chilling weather. ‘Invisible pantyhose, with layer knee-high socks over it, can be worn when you are feeling very cold. This will help you keep warm when you step out.
If you have sweat pants of three quarters length, you can also wear them under a long skirt. Layer invisible pantyhose under the sweat pants for extra warmth.
