Two trends, one look. Put on a side hem ruffle skirt with a sleek pair of mules and you might as well be on the Gucci runway. This look was seen over and over again, proving that the runway can meet real life. If you’re on the shorter side make sure your mules are heeled.

A ruffled dress like this one is a seasonally immortal piece. In the colder months, wear it with tights and boots and then when it warms up, opt for bare legs and sandals.
