If cringe-worthy middle school trends come to mind when you think of the denim skirt, you are not alone. Remember the frayed, micro-mini jean skirts we all wore circa ’05? Yep, me too.

Given their history, I never believed that denim skirts could look chic and polished…. but celebrities have been changing my mind about that recently. The current popularity of knee-length denim skirts has me excited to give these items a second chance.

Need styling tips? Look no further than Kirsten Dunst, Eva Mendes, and Jessica Alba above. Try pairing a knee-length (or slightly above-the-knee) denim skirt with a button-up blouse, a tied top, or wedges for a put-together outfit like Eva’s, or opt for a belt and breezy tank for a casual look a la Jessica.
