Hello you amazing people! Welcome back to my channel! As you already know by the intro
0:15
this video is about how to wear a tool skirt literally every day. Initially, I thought of
0:20
creating a lookbook sharing different ways I style a tool skirt, but I got an even better idea
0:27
I thought of creating a series like a guidebook or you can call it a cheat sheet. It's not a rule
0:36
book, not at all. I don't like rules. Fashion should not have any rules. The only rule I follow
0:43
is if it looks good on you, you should wear it. So in this brand new series, I will be sharing
0:49
some ways you can style an item and my top tips to incorporate them in your everyday outfits
0:57
A tool skirt is my absolute favorite skirt to wear. You might have seen my tool skirt collection in my
1:06
mini skirt collection video which I will link somewhere up here in one of the cards for you
1:12
guys to watch if you haven't already. I have quite a lot of tool skirts and I have collected some
1:18
more this fall and winter and I find that tool skirts are such a feminine yet chic take on skirts
1:27
You can style them in so many different ways. They are really versatile in terms of a wardrobe essential to take you from an everyday look
1:37
to something fancy. You can dress it down, dress it up. It has enormous potential
1:44
So without blabbering anymore, let's get into this video. Before we talk about whether tool skirts are in style or not, let's talk about a brief
1:57
history of tool skirts. Tool skirts were created as a form of lace in early 1700s, but the actual
2:06
tool pattern, or you can say the fabric tool pattern, the pattern of a tool skirt was patented
2:12
in 1809 and were started to be manufactured to especially be used in wedding gowns, evening gowns
2:22
even in lingerie now that is not it we have seen tools girl travel all through the era in different
2:30
ways even in current year in 2020 we have seen famous designers like dior valentino dolce cabana
2:39
and so on showcase their versions of tool skirts in their runways so to sum it up tool skirts
2:48
probably will never go out of style and i find that they are kind of a wardrobe essential
2:55
every woman should own at least one tool skirt so that they can dress it up or dress it down or wear
3:03
it on special occasions or even on every day to feel a little bit feminine and chic now i absolutely
3:10
wear tool skirts all through the year in different ways i'm not going to show all my outfits of tool
3:17
skirts if you are curious to see how I actually wear them literally every
3:22
every season. I have shared so many outfits on my Instagram, Pink April
3:27
Diary and if you're not friends on Instagram why not? Let's be friends
3:36
This is a common question even I asked myself when I initially started wearing a tool skirt how do you dress down if you really are looking for more of a casual way of dressing a tool skirt
3:48
I would recommend going for a tool skirt which does not have that many layers a tool skirt with
3:55
multiple layers looks more puffy and fancier more like a ballerina compared to a tool skirt with
4:03
just one or two layers or just one layer looks more casual looks more like a pleated skirt
4:09
especially if you have some kind of a pattern in it or if it has got some kind of a texture
4:15
if you want to create a more casual look I would recommend going for sweatshirts or chunkier
4:21
sweaters or for summer going for t-shirts and even like denim shirts which are going to create
4:29
more of a casual vibe. For footwear, I have gone for pumps even with sweatshirts and shirts
4:37
but you can also do sneakers. I find that it creates such a cute feminine look and it still
4:44
looks more wearable. Now, if you want to create more of an edgy look with tool skirts, it can also
5:04
be done very easily. You can actually add some hardware details to your outfit, like a belt with
5:13
a metallic buckle or silver jewelry compared to gold jewelry creates more of an edgier look
5:21
I would pair it with leather jackets, bomber jackets as well. This way you're creating
5:27
more of an edgy look but not too edgy or not too feminine
5:43
Now, if your style is still feminine and you still want to look polished but still want to dress down a tulle skirt, I would recommend going for more classic tops like a white button-down shirt, which looks really, really classic and it is such an essential in every woman's wardrobe, even for men
6:13
This is a common question I think even I ask, a lot of us ask, how to not look fat in the
6:28
tool skirt. Because tool skirt in general is more of a puffy and more of something a flared kind
6:35
of a skirt which adds a little bit more of a volume to your bottom compared to any other kind
6:43
of skirt which kind of tones down and it falls. So we often kind of feel a little bit more bulkier
6:50
in a tulle skirt compared to normal skirt and that sometimes kind of makes us not wear them
6:55
So for that I have a few tips for you. The first tip is if you are wearing a tulle skirt that is
7:02
really frilly, go for something super fitted. Even if you have a bit of upper part like mine
7:09
a little bit of boobs it doesn matter It will still look flattering if you wearing something fitted My second tip is going for footwear that have pointy toes now this is a little bit of trick and that i do this for every single one of my outfits because i want
7:29
to look a little bit leaner i am just an average um kind of size four to six kind of a woman so
7:37
i tend to look bulkier in pieces that have a little bit more of a volume so my trick is to
7:44
add pointy toe shoes like pointy toe boots even pointy toe loafers pointy toe pumps or sandals that
7:51
add more of kind of a linear structure making you look leaner and your legs look leaner that way
7:59
even if you are wearing a bulkier tool skirt you will look more leaner and taller as well
8:14
My third tip is to add a belt. A belt kind of creates a kind of like a division and it draws
8:22
attention to your waist, making your waist look a little bit slimmer and also kind of accentuates
8:30
a curvier structure compared to if you feel, especially if you have a straight figure like
8:37
mine you would look way more like curvier than our glass figure that we all kind of look for
8:45
that a belt can add that kind of a style to your outfit and my last tip to not look fat
8:52
on a tool skirt is to add something structured at the top as a third layer now if you are in summer
8:59
and you're wearing like a loose fitted t-shirt with a tool skirt i would recommend adding a blazer
9:04
a blazer would look really really chic and add that structure touch and blazers tend to
9:10
also look more structure around your waistline so it creates a leaner look to your outfit and if
9:18
you're in winter go for more structured coats compared to bulkier coats if you're wearing a
9:23
tool skirt that creates more of a structured outfit and you also look overall leaner in that outfit
9:31
tool skirts kind of tend to become like a ballerina uniform we tend to associate it
9:38
with ballerina outfits whenever we think of a tool skirt but they don't have to be
9:43
you can actually still look fancy and not look like a ballerina with a tool skirt now when i want
9:51
to tone down a tool skirt and still look fancy i tend to wear like a button-down shirt with collar
9:56
underneath a sweater that kind of creates more of a structured and even if it looks fancy
10:04
it still looks structured and polished and chic. I also like to add some kind of a gold jewelry to my outfit when I'm wearing a tool skirt
10:21
so that it looks more of dressy compared to more like a ballerina because ballerinas tend to not
10:29
wear that much of jewelry anyways. So that kind of changes the perspective of that entire outfit
10:37
to look more chic. I also like to wear dressier sandals like strappy sandals or even boots which
10:45
have dress boots like pointy heels and pointy toes that tend to create a different bit of a style
10:53
with a tool skirt compared to making it look like a ballerina outfit
11:05
You can actually add your tulle skirt underneath a sweater dress to create a different kind of an outfit
11:12
It actually looks like a ball gown. You can also add pleated skirt above a tulle skirt
11:19
adding more layer and bounce and creating more of a vintage style look
11:23
with a tool skirt without looking over the top like a ballerina
11:27
now you don't have to spend thousands of dollars on a tool skirt buying a designer tool skirt
11:55
There are so many shops out there who have really awesome tool skirts with a good price point
12:02
My favorite, and you already probably know this, is Chic Wish. I absolutely love all of their tool skirts
12:11
The price point of each of those tool skirts are really budget friendly
12:16
You can find a variety of styles. Now, another shop that I absolutely love is ASOS
12:21
They have a really good tool skirt collection as well. They have more of a modern touch to the
12:27
school tool skirts. They have layered tool skirts. They also have some awesome tool skirts that you
12:33
can shop if you're looking for outfits for a wedding. They have some maxi tool skirts
12:37
There are structured, stylish, and modern. Now, if you're looking for tool skirts on Amazon
12:44
I think a lot of us do shop for Amazon and tool skirts, we tend to kind of associate them with a
12:50
little bit of costume, I would caution you to look at the quality of the tool skirt and the price
12:57
point. Anything underneath $25 might not look that amazing in terms of wearing it every single day
13:05
If you are shopping it for a costume purpose, by all means go for it. But if you really want to wear
13:12
a tool skirt for like every day, I would recommend trying to look for something which is more than
13:18
$125 because the quality of the tool is what will reflect in your entire outfit. So if you want to
13:26
incorporate some good tool skirts in your everyday outfit, I would recommend going for SheQuish
13:31
or ASOS. I have seen occasionally brands like Ann Taylor, even Gap, come up with some tool skirts
13:41
here and there. But if you are looking for a tool skirt any season, these are the two brands that
13:47
you can go for. I hope you found this guide a little bit helpful in deciding what kind of style
13:53
you want to wear in terms of tool skirts or how you want to dress your tool skirt. If you like this
