A satin skirt looks dressy, but it’s easy to wear every day. The trick is to pair the shine with a simple top, like a knit, a tank or a crisp shirt. These five outfits show how to style one from the office to a wedding.

A burgundy satin skirt is rich and warm, perfect for fall. This one is cut on the bias, so it skims the hips and flares softly near the ankle.

Cream pointed flats add a light touch at the hem, and a small black top-handle bag keeps it polished. It’s an elegant look you can wear to work or dinner.
