The mini goes big

As the sun came out - hemlines went up. This summer we've been treated to more legs on show than the Moulin Rouge.

Yes, the mini has made a comeback and we've taken it straight to our hearts, just like they did in the Sixties.

Our favourite mini? On the streets of London the denim mini has become as much a staple as the denim jacket. Worn with a T-shirt it can happily see you through day to night. Model Jasmine Guinness has been spotted wearing a Marc by Marc Jacobs version.

Other mini favourites are the pleated and ra-ra variety - both readily available from high street stores.

Kate Moss and Sadie Frost, both of them mothers, have shown that you don't need to be an 18-year-old to get away with wearing one.

But just how high do you go? And where is it acceptable to wear a mini? Take a look at our 'Celebs in miniskirts' gallery for a spot of inspiration and pure jealousy.
