If your skirt comes with a matching top, wearing them together can be a solution to days when you feel too lazy mixing it up. The similar colour and pattern on both pieces makes the ensemble look like a dress, which is something you can't go wrong with when complemented with some matching accessories.

This is another colour-coordinated combo that shows you how dressing up your matching top and skirt will never go wrong. The outfit isn't too gaudy, but is tasteful, classy and incredibly chic.

If your skirt doesn't come with a complementary top, match it up yourself! The nude-pink tones of this metallic skirt go perfectly well with the similar shades accentuated by Evangeline Smyrotaki's off-shoulder top, sandals and purse, which even though are pretty neutral, make for an outstanding combination.
Best
You can never go wrong with a neutral white camisole. The cropped bottom of this apron-style camisole helps to show just the right amount of skin when paired with this high-waisted A-line skirt. Both pieces of clothing are of solid colours, which makes the whole outfit easy to wear and pleasing to the eye.

A turtleneck tucked into a pencil skirt makes another basic but chic getup that is very safe and fashionable for work. This outfit is one of the most timeless styles that just never grows old. It is just the right amount of conservative, but at the same time hits all the right curves if you've got some you'd like to show off.

Katharine McPhee knows just how to wow us with another timeless classic. Since this outfit is all black, it is extremely slimming and flattering for any occasion. Her mesh top and buttoned-down skirt offer slight variations to just a full-black ensemble, to spice up the outfit with some bling.

Denim is always a casual material, so pairing a denim mini-skirt (whether buttoned or not) will go well with an off-shoulder ruffled cotton top that flutters in the wind. Let your hair down and enjoy the attention drawn to your adorable outfit!
Best
If you just want to dress up in fuss-free attire that you can feel comfortable in, try throwing on a simple jumper and a skater skirt that not only makes you look younger, but hides all your flaws as well (like your tummy if you're out for a big meal). You don't need to wear heels for this if you don't want to, a pair of comfortable sneakers will do the trick.
Best
Go all out in a sequined top and a long, flowy skirt that makes you look like you're wearing a gown. This is something you'd want to save for very special occasions, such as a formal dinner, because the people around you will definitely remember how you rocked this outfit for a very long time.
Best
A side-split maxi skirt is perfect for the outdoors or a gardent party, where the wind will reveal just a cheeky peek of those gorgeous legs with every step you take. Here, the red of the outfit is extremely eye-catching, and gives you the best reason to rock some bright red lipstick as well.
Worst
Wearing a mini skirt with a tank top and some uggs doesn't sound too bad... but just make sure your cardigan is properly done up before you get caught by the cameras. You don't want to look like a fashion disaster as shown here by Kelly Osbourne. It doesn't seem like the day's going very well for her.
Worst
A lace top and a ruffled skirt is probably not the wisest combination, since it makes your outfit look tacky and overdone. The top and skirt would do well separately with some neutral, non-patterned pieces so that their designs can be highlighted individually.
Worst
Again, we wouldn't advise you to wear two heavily-patterned pieces together, especially not on the streets on a normal day. Perhaps this sequined top that's worn by Abigail Hargrove with a feathered skirt would look great as a dance costume, but definitely not for the average Jane going out for tea with her best pals.
Worst
This getup doesn't look too bad since the colours are matched well, but we think the leather jacket and straight skirt look too blockish together, not ideal if your intention was to wow the masses.
Worst
G Hannelius may be able to pull this cutesy look off, but we don't recommend that you try to imitate it. The mix of colours and patterns don't go well naturally, so it takes skill and lots of hourly maintenance to make sure the outfit stays in place, just the way you want it to. The combination also doesn't do good for your figure, as it makes you look bigger than you really are.
Worst
We don't need to say much about this, do we? Spankie Valentine has always been known for her outrageous concert-like outfits, but we think it would be best if you stayed clear of her fashion style, unless you're going for the quirky, Lady Gaga look as well. If you'd really like to wear a tutu skirt, go for some mellowed tones and accessories that will help you look a bit more rooted and classy.
Worst
We know we've said that pink and blue go well together, but not when they make you look like you're dressed in alumnium foil, or the like. Make sure you choose clothes with a cut that flatters your body shape, since that's what fashion is all about in the first place.
Worst
Like we said earlier, if your skirt is already ruffled or pleated or rife with patterns, you don't want to pair it with another ruffled top since you will most likely look like a mess. This bright pink top isn't something we would recommend wearing anyway, so it would be worse if you wore something equally arresting.
Worst
This is definitely not the way you should wear a floral, flare maxi unless you're preparing for a garden performance. With a skirt like this, the patterns need to be toned down, but a floral halter top will make the look even tackier than it already is.
Worst
Well, we've saved the best for the last. We understand that Melanie Mar wore this for a Halloween event with the intention of looking like a mermaid, but if you're not dressing for the festivities, please don't ever think that you need to go all out with the mermaid look just because you have a mermaid skirt in your wardrobe.
