How do you use a duvet cover?
A duvet cover is used as an envelope to hold a duvet. To insert the duvet into the duvet cover, first spread the duvet cover flat over the bed. Open the bottom of the duvet cover. Find the top of the duvet and grab hold of the two top corners. The tricky part is sliding the duvet into the duvet cover. As best you can, while continuing to hold tight to the duvet corners, work the duvet up to the top of the duvet cover. Place one corner of the duvet into the corresponding corner of the duvet cover. Hold tightly onto that corner from the outside. Next, do the same at the other top corner. Hold tight to both corners and pull them up to the top of the bed. Make sure the middle top side of the duvet also lines up with the middle top side of the duvet cover. Now, as best you can, slide the duvet cover down over top of the duvet. Both the duvet cover and duvet will likely be bunched up, but keep gently working it down. It is a bit tricky. The goal is to get the bottom two corners of the duvet aligned into the bottom corners of the duvet cover. When the duvet and cover are mostly aligned, give the covered duvet a good shake to even out the contents. When you are happy with the duvet distribution, do up the bottom of the duvet cover. Now, snuggle up.

A bed skirt is more of a decorative item. If your duvet covers your box spring it probably isn't necessary but if you like for not to be exposed definitely purchase a bed skirt
