Denim skirts may have a semi-tragic place in recent fashion history (insanely distressed minis, anyone?), but that doesn't mean you shouldn't give the style another chance. With a fresh upgrade and some polished touches, these skirts are back in much better ways. Read on for four reboots that will cure your early '00s PTSD and make you want to wear denim skirts again this summer.
THE MIDI A-LINE SKIRT

THE NEW DISTRESSED MINI SKIRT
Thanks to Saint Laurent's ongoing love affair with everything nostalgic, a '00s-inspired frayed-hem mini skirt is officially a must-have. But instead of wearing it in the same way you did the first time they were popular, tone down your skirt with a ladylike cardigan and classic loafers.
