It may have been a maxi skirt, yet it did little to conceal Beyoncé’s toned pin.The 33-year-old chart topper flashed the flesh in a floor length skirt that featured a daring thigh-high slit in a photo shared on Sunday.With her honey locks worn down in relaxed waves, the Crazy In Love hit maker oozed 1960’s glamour as she cast a sexy stare in the direction of the camera.

Flashing the flesh: Beyoncé showed off her toned pin in a daring dress that featured a thigh-high slit in a photo shared on SundayThe mother-of-one paired her soft skirt with a slouchy white blouse that loosely hung upon her frame.She clutched a luxurious fur coat, and gave herself a slight lift with a pair of pearl white heels.Beyoncé complimented her flawless complexion with a smoky coat of eye shadow, a slick of raspberry lipstick, and a touch of blush to soften her features.
Simply glamorous: The singer as usual struck a fashion high note as she sported a striped shirt in a photo shared on Friday
Beyonce is the Queen of pop and the Queen of style too. She proved that here on instagram showing off a clashing print monochrome ensemble. Fashion Finder loves when people play around with prints and have a bit of fun with their fashion, just like Beyonce has here.
She teamed a striped Gucci roll-neck jumper with Wayne polka-dot trousers which really packed a punch.
The trousers are very much sold out, but you can still snap up Beyonce's jumper, right, at Farfetch, but hurry, because there's only a few left!
Whether we admit it or not, we all want to channel a little bit of this superstar, well who wouldn't want to be rich, famous, a brilliant singer and dancer, have a hot body and be married to someone as cool as Jay-Z? Case in point.
So make like Beyonce and team your pick with a clashing print, or simply pop on some coloured skinny jeans to have serious colour contrast, which will be equally as effective.

Finishing off the vintage look was a coat of scarlet nail polish, and a sparkling silver bracelet.The Pretty Hurts singer has been stepping it up a gear in the fashion stakes: after years of sporting unsightly clothes in Destiny's Child, the superstar has really come into her own and is not too shy to show off her sartorial prowess online, often with posed shots.And, as well as making bold style statements, she's clearly keen on having fun with her fashion too, as evidenced by her newly-unveiled Christmas card.
'I literally fell to the floor': Laverne Cox could not believe she was among one of the lucky recipients of the chart topper's Christmas card, and took to Instagram to share the thoughtful gift on Friday
Beyoncé saved time this year by recycling a scene from her new music video in a playful card sent to friends this week.
Recently, actress Laverne Cox was the lucky recipient of the card, and couldn't wait to share the unexpected gift with her Instagram followers on Friday. 'So when I opened this holiday card a few days ago and read Love @beyonce I literally fell to the floor. I was on the floor of my apartment. I have witnesses. Love the #CakeByThePound sweatshirt. Thanks Bey for the gift. 'I have had an awesome year and this is certainly a highlight. Happy holidays Mrs. Carter to you and your beautiful family. Thanks for all the amazing music and endless inspiration you've given to me and so many over the past 16 years. Since No No No I have been saying YASSS YASSS YASSS! #QueenBey foever.'
She's clearly a fan! The starlet flashed her pins in yet another daring number while attending the Billboard Women In Music Luncheon in New York in December

MORE DON'T MISSOOTD: Cropped & a Neon Orange Pop
I am not ready to say goodbye to summer, just yet. Sigh. Today is the first official day of Fall 2014 but I am still going to be posting a few looks from what I wore, this summer, in the coming days. 
I found the crop top worn in today's outfit in the clearance section of Marshalls and it was love at first sight. The Print and the Cut of the top gives it so many possibilities. In today's outfit, I am wearing the Printed crop top with a Pencil Skirt, a Sequin Clutch and Neon Pumps.  adds to the neon orange pop to the outfit.
This outfit is perfect for a date night (Stacy & Clinton would say - sure, on the 50th date), so make that date night with your husband. You can also wear this on a night out on the town with friends.
What do you think of today's outfit? Don't forget to leave a comment. I look forward to hearing from you.

&&»&& What is the perfect skirt length and skirt type for women over 40?
Let’s talk about skirts today. Getting the right skirt length, but also the right fit and shape, can make all the difference between looking fabulous or looking frumpy between young and hip or a bit old lady.
What is the perfect skirt length for women over 40?
One skirt length that will always be flattering for women over 40 is knee length. I now like my skirts best when they either finish at the top of the knee or just below. However, just above the knee is good too.
What is so flattering about this look is that it shows of your full calve. It creates a slimming elongated look. Avoid getting skirts or dresses that end at the middle (and thickest) part of your calves. The 4 skirts picture above are all either top, middle or just under the knee.
As always, this is just a guideline and certainly not a ‘rule’ set in stone. I still wear my black skirt
which is a lot shorter and also my
which is a lot longer and I wear a
on a summer holiday to the beach. See a few examples below of considered ‘imperfect’ lengths for my age.
I think I can get away with most of these looks. Partly due to the styling and partly due to the type of skirt and how well it fits me.
When you buy a skirt in these more challenging lengths, do have a critical eye and look in the mirror. If you are short, you may actually prefer slightly shorter lengths.Test out several lengths and see what works best for your body and your personality. Then ask yourself these questions: Does it look good on me? Is the skirt length too aging or unflattering? Does it make me look too young? Trust your own instinct!
However, if you want to play it safe then you can never go wrong with knee length skirts. I’m personally aiming for my new skirts and dresses to be exactly knee length, but every now and then I will break that personal rule as the examples above testify. Especially when I see a nice asymmetric cut like my .
What type of skirt is best?
The type of skirt that is best for you depends on your . However, I can offer some general guidelines.
You will look more sloppy in skirts that are too wide. It’s nice to fit your skirts around your hips and then have a slight A-line or bias cut, rather than having a skirt that is wide all round. I’m a big fan of
that the A-line skirt as I showed you in this
and this . I find that these slight A-line skirts look the most flattering on me. They are very flattering for many women, especially if you have wider hips, bigger legs or wider shoulders as they balance you out.
Straight skirts are considered a more hip option by many. I personally find them harder to wear because I find them less comfortable and often too body-conscious, but if you are comfortable in those areas, they can be very flattering on many women over 40.
Another skirt that looks good on many women is the trumpet skirt. Fitted at the hips and a flare at the bottom.
And, of course, you all know that I’m a big fan of an asymetric skirt . This skirt is not really trendy, but more unusual and will never really go out of style.
Other types of skirts
Pleated skirt: This will look best when the pleats do not start at the waist. Be careful with small pleated skirts though as they can age you.
Denim skirt: Can look good but be sure to dress them up a bit. Best not to wear them too short and knee length is best.
Balloon skirts: great for people like me who are relatively straight and have a flat bum. This skirt will give you more shape.
Peasant skirt: needs to be worn with care. Make sure it’s not too wide and too long.
Full skirt: A trickier look to wear for women over 40. I still like my
which is at a perfect length. It’s usually best to wear with a tight top but can also look really nice with a blazer with a hip belt around your waist. Or take inspiration from
who also showed a few great full skirt options (as well as some great straight skirts!).
Long skirt: can look nice but may also overwhelm you. In general it’s nicer to show a little leg over 40.
It’s all about the fit
Whether or not a skirt looks good on you or ages you, is all about the fit. I remember an episode of “How do I look”, where a woman was asked to rate 5 outfits in terms of how expensive they were. She got them all wrong. What she had scored as the most expensive outfit was actually the cheapest. And the only reason she had rated that outfit as the most expensive, was because it fit the model perfectly (the most expensive outfits were not fitted that well).
If something fits you well, it not only looks good, it also looks more expensive and will give you more of a young and hip look. So fit in any garment is hugely important. Of course, as mentioned before, pay close attention to your body type to decide which type of skirt is best for you.
Make use of a tailor
When you read the above guidelines and discover some skirts in your wardrobe that just don’t suit your body or don’t fit well, you may be able to take them to a tailor. They can turn A-line skirts into straight ones, lift your waistline or make your really wide skirt more fitted.
Here are some of my favorite skirts in stores now

Please remember, these are just guidelines that will hopefully be of help to you and help you create a young and hip look after 40! Apply them when needed but don’t be afraid to experiment and bend the guidelines whenever it suits you. Trust your own instincts!
Another important factor whether or not your skirt will work or not is to create the right balance within the outfit and apply the rule of thirds. We will discuss that in more detail and lots more in the !
