You have to admit, slit skirts often look too dressy for everyday wear. You might shy away from them because of the added leg exposure but a stylish approach can give them a classy vibe.

Allow these celebrities to school you on how to make slitted skirts look wearable:

1. Alexa Chung wore a PVC skirt with a knitted sweater

We adore this look because of the play in textures. The two-tone sweater balanced out the sexy appeal of the PVC skirt. Coupled with the TV presenter’s monochrome approach to styling it, the look is both classy and wearable.

2. Kendall Jenner decided to team up her midi skirt with a pair of sneakers

The metallic top might look too much on a normal day but take a page from the model’s book and pair your midi slit skirt with sneakers. This looks both comfortable and street-chic.

3. Solange Knowles styled it with a turtleneck sweater

Chuck the fur coat out and just go for the turtleneck sweater and slitted skirt look. This timeless tandem can be amped up with a pair of chic pumps.

4. Shailene Woodley went for a bright-colored skirt and paired it up with a collared top

The skirt definitely draws attention and it’s something you just need to spice up your wardrobe. Look like you really know what you’re doing by teaming it up with a collared top like the actress did here.

5. Kimberley Garner kept it easy with a slouchy button down top

Wearing a sheer, slouchy button down top is a fool-proof way of styling a slitted skirt. Throw in some pastel accents such as Kimberley’s blush-tone pumps and you are great to go for spring.

6. Amber Le Bon donned a maxi skirt with a kimono-style top
