Ah, the basic black skirt. It's a classic for a reason. My mini skirt is a couple of years old now, but last summer I got a longer length skirt and it's getting worn nearly as much. Both work with a variety of separates and each has a different sort of feel--the longer skirt always makes me feel rather elegant. If there was one item I'd recommend investing in it would be a good, black skirt that fits you exactly right (I'm partial for pieces that are very fitted at the narrowest part of my waist). That's really the main thing with clothes; pieces that are a little off and you keep adjust are ones you won't wear again and again because they are literally uncomfortable. Of course, "investing" could mean finding a great basic black skirt in a nice material at a thrift shop and getting a friend to help you hem/tailor it.
