Leather skirts aren't just for biker chicks - you too can inject urban edge into your look like Selena Gomez and Whitney Port. Pair a mini or pencil skirt with a simple, loose-fitting top - this creates the illusion of a super-slim lower body. Just remember: A leather skirt should fit snugly, so avoid an ultrahigh hem, which, when coupled with a close fit, can seem too revealing. Also, stick to classic colors like black and tan.

A loose tank, neutral tones and a bow at the waist give Selena a classic, demure look. A slouchy T-shirt contrasts with Whitney's slim mini for a casual-cool combo.
