Playing with Pleats

Happy Monday lovebugs. Let's play with pleats today. Pleats are great when worn correctly. Pin tuck pleats with work pants, casual pleats with bf chinos, or accordion pleats with a skirt. Today let's go glam and look at some midi skits that are ready for a twirl.

Topshop, Satin Pleat Midi Skirt, $85

I mean, you're welcome. Holy crap amazing. Crop top, silk blouse, leather jacket, you name it. Pair it.

Saks Fifth Avenue, ABS Pleated Chiffon Midi Skirt, $240 $96

Oh hey mega sale! A little dressy but picture it with a chambray button down for daytime.

Mango, Pleated Midi Skirt, $79

Purple perfection. Look at this plum beauty!! I'm pairing it with white and black polka dots and sneakers.

Reiss, Kaeya Bronze Metallic Pleated Skirt, $245 $95

Dressy for night with stacked heels or 9-5 with black booties.

These midi skirts are great for any style because you can pair it with a tee shirt or you can throw on a blazer or add a statement necklace, pick your poison and own it.

That's So Faux

Let's talk affordable leather. Ok, maybe not real leather, but let's look at some real quality brands that are pumping out affordable faux-leather options. These options are easy to wear and easy on the budget. Today let's look at some faux-leather midi skirts.

Nordstrom, Halogen Faux Leather A Line Skirt, $88

The seaming on this skirt is perfection for any shape. It is flattering and ladylike and it's a classic.

The Limited, High Waist Faux Leather Skirt, $55

Gotta love this smooth and silky look.

Bloomingdale's, Lucy Paris Perforated Faux Leather, $78

This perforated option isn't overly sexy because of the length.

Macy's, Calvin Klein Faux Leather Pleated Skirt, $84 $63!

And a great pleated option. Tuck in a sweater for a sassy hourglass look.

The faux leather midi option is a cost effective way to stay on trend. These options may be work appropriate depending on your office culture; if you're questioning, try it with a flat and crew neck top to test the waters.

Don't Midi if I Do

Happy Monday lovebugs,
I hope you had a great weekend. We're back at it with the 9-5 life so I thought we would have some fun with workwear. The midi skirt has been all the rage this summer with crop tops but did you know you can continue to wear them into the fall and winter with a cropped sweater or a sleek oxford. So today let's look at some great midi skirts with pockets.

Nordstrom, Harlow and Graham Pleated A-Line Midi Skirt, $78

We're going to start with the ultimate. The standard, the versatile, the goes with absolutely anything. Oh and it's under $80.

Modcloth, B. Jones Style Skirt, $89

This skirt has a great large print that you can pair with a striped top, crop top, bow blouse, you name it. 

Asos, Full Midi Skirt in Scuba, $66

How can you not love peach? It's a bright but not neon-in-your-face color.

Express, High Waist Full Midi Skirt, $69

I'm a sucker for this purple, fuchsia color. I just love the saturated pop of color. Mix it with emerald, navy, yellow, just have fun with it.

The midi skirt works now with an ankle strap sandal and later with tights and booties, so stock up! And check out the new shop the post feature below to make it easy for you to find the pieces featured!
