Who says sneakers can’t be stylish? EmRata proves that bold, colorful sneakers can add a playful twist to a midi skirt. This unexpected pairing creates a cool, casual vibe that’s perfect for daytime outings. Opt for sneakers with a retro feel for a nod to ’90s fashion. Don’t be afraid to experiment with different colors and prints to match your personality.

3. Uggs: Cozy Cool

Uggs might be synonymous with winter comfort, but the NYC street style has shown us that they can also be a stylish choice for fall. Pair your midi skirt with a slim-fit jacket and your favourite Ugg boots for a relaxed yet effortlessly chic look. This combination is perfect for running errands or grabbing coffee with friends. Just remember to choose a midi skirt with a slightly shorter hemline to avoid overwhelming your proportions.

4. Cowboy Boots: Western Edge

Channel your inner cool-girl cowgirl with a pair of cowboy boots and a midi skirt. The My Body author has mastered this trend by pairing her skirts with classic brown suede cowboy boots. Add an oversized denim jacket or leather bomber jacket to complete the look. For a modern twist, opt for a midi skirt with a thigh-high slit or a ruffled hem.

5. Chunky Platform Boots: Bold and Edgy

If you’re looking to make a statement, chunky platform boots are the way to go. EmRata pairs these bold shoes with her cold-weather wardrobe, but they can also be a perfect choice for the transitional seasons. Choose a midi skirt with a more fitted silhouette to balance out the chunky boots. Add a leather jacket and oversized accessories, such as a fuzzy hat or bag, for a full-on it-girl look.

Remember, the key to styling midi skirts is to experiment and have fun. Don’t be afraid to mix and match different footwear and midi skirt combos to create your own unique looks. With these five shoe options inspired by our street style queen, Emily Ratajkowski, you’ll be ready to conquer the fall season in style.
