Want a twist on pleats, pencils, and A-lines? This versatile update to the wrap is super-flattering, thanks to an asymmetrical cut and strategically placed piping. From the workplace to brunch with the girls, we show you three different ways to style your new favorite spring staple--the fold-over mini (Cotton-polyester, Sea, $310; at the Webster, 305-674-7899).

1. A quilted jacket and ankle-strap flats take the skirt to work—at least in creative fields. Is your office more formal? Slip on tights and sleek heels.

2. Put on a fuzzy pink sweater, and this go-anywhere piece even suits weekends. A compact backpack and shiny brogues are the only accessories you need for a laid-back yet stylish brunch look.

3. To emphasize the oh là là factor of the peekaboo cutout, pair the mini with sexy booties. An untucked textured top and a cobalt shoulder bag add to the playful mood.
