a large saftey pin or rubber bands/ponytail holders
I used a clothes pin - the kind with the spring. Works well. I would clip my skirt below my top tube (my bike was a mixte and my skirts were long). Just remember to take it off before dismounting and trying to walk away or you'll either knock over the bike or fling clothes pins off into the distance!
(Oh, and a binder clip worked in a pinch, too)

I thought about the clothespin too, but envisioned snapping it off into my head by mistake.The shorts are a good idea but I'm worried about getting too hot on my ride. I'm thinking of making something like a big scrunchie to go around my legs and hold the skirt to my thighs....I was hoping someone else already had.

What about pinning a weight to your skirt to keep it from blowing? That way, if you forgot to remove it, it wouldn't go flying. I'm thinking that a cute (but reasonably weighty) pendant on a large safety pin or something? It would keep it from blowing up but not actually attach you to the bike.

Depending on the length and shape, drawing up the back and tucking it into the front waistband can work.
You'll look a bit like Alladin.
Another way to strategically cover up things is with a purse positioned just so. I am a bit of a bag ***** and my new love is a cross-the-chest black and white Vera Wang bag. It's great on the bike and positions great to cover up a multitude of issues when wearing a skirt!
