If you have the legs for it, short skirts are great in many ways. They are cooler in the summer, and they can also look quite sexy on the right person. For little girls, they even have some that have shorts underneath. That means that children who aren’t quite used to keeping their legs together won’t be showing the world their underwear. However, there are many times when short just won’t do, and long skirts are necessary. They don’t sound as fun, but if you choose the right ones, they can look amazing.
One time when long skirts are a must is when attending a funeral. There are plenty of short skirts in dark colors, but they aren’t exactly appropriate. Instead, find long skirts that reach to or below the knees. This shows respect. There are plenty of times to wear shorter skirts, but this is not one of them. If you skip the long skirts and go for a dress, the same length rules should apply. Though wearing all black is not necessary, the skirt, at least, should be black or navy blue. That way, when you choose a top, you know that the skirt will go with just about anything you choose.

... one of those fortunate men who, if they were to dive under one side of a barge stark-naked, would come up on the other with a new suit of clothes on, and a ticket for soup in the waistcoat-pocket.

When you want to signify a bit of class, you might want to wear long skirts. Shorter ones are great for going out or even hanging around the house. However, when you go to a gathering for work, you might want to get out your long skirts when choosing an outfit. Shorter skirts can work out okay while at work, but most prefer to wear longer ones to be taken seriously. You might be surprised how much a difference your wardrobe can make when people think about how serious and dedicated you are to your job. If you are showing a lot of leg and a lot of cleavage at work, people aren’t going to take you seriously, even if you are very good at your job.
You don’t have to have ankle length long skirts to look good and respectable, but they are great for more formal occasions. A great wardrobe can include all sorts of different lengths of skirts from very short to very long skirts. The trick is to know when to wear different lengths. For skirts that match just about anything, go for neutral or dark colors. This gives you more room to move when mixing and matching the items in your closet for the most possible combinations of great outfits possible.
