No Fear of Sheer: How to Wear Sheer Skirts in New Laid-Back Ways

Sheer skirts are a trending fashion item for summer 2024, and I love them! This year is different than the sheer trends of the past, as the focus is specifically on skirts rather than dresses. That’s all to the good, because you can always do more with separates. Sheer skirts can be worn for day or evening, and can be dressed up or down. In this post, I am focusing mostly on how to wear sheer skirts anytime.
