The Ageless Skirt Trend Taylor Swift and Lucy Liu Both Wore in November

Millennials and Gen X don't always agree on everything, but I found one fashion item that has them seeing eye to eye. I noticed that Taylor Swift and Lucy Liu both wore incredibly similar outfits just days apart, inspiring me to do a little shopping to re-create their looks. The 34-year-old singer and the 55-year-old actress both wore red plaid miniskirts by Versace along with matching jackets.
They did differ in their styling choices, however. Swift paired her mini with knee-high boots, also by Versace, while Liu opted for black Falke tights and Stuart Weitzman platform heels. Looking at both of these stellar outfits, it's clear that a red plaid miniskirt has the power to bridge the generation gap—sartorially speaking, at least!
