pleated skirts

so lately i have been noticing the new trend of Pleated Skirts...they're freaking adorable & to me, so girly. you can wear them long, short or mid length depending on the type of look you are going for..they come in all types of colors..and as you can see in most of these picture everyone is using a skinny belt as well...the key to the pleated skirt is to make sure you are not pairing it with a baggy shirt..it needs to be a little tight and tucked in...if you aren't a fan of tucked in shirts you don't have too but the main part of your outfit is the skirt, so you don't want a shirt over powering the skirt....it needs to be slick & simple...however if you look at the picture with the short pleated skirt the girl is wearing a t-shirt, but its tucked in & sleek enough that it does not over power her or the outfit....

for me, i always get nervous wearing skirts like these because i am short...5'3 to be exact..so for the short girls make sure you pair the skirt with heels or platforms if you're going to go for a longer look - you don't want the skirt to be wearing you.....also try & get a color if you get a pleated skirt because BRIGHTS are huge this Spring..plus it will add some color to your life...
i know from working at Nordstrom & being a personal shopper for my clients that a lot of people are too nervous to explore other colors than the normal - black, grey, white, & blue..so my answer to that is pair your color skirt with a plain color top....and if you don't want to use a belt, in last picture below she is not wearing a belt. but as you can see her top is still tucked in giving her that sleek look....

My favorite thing about the Pleated Skirt is you can wear it for any occasion. You can dress it up with some high heels for a night out on the town or dress it down with some gladiators or sandals for a day on the boardwalk. So go out & get yourself a pleated skirt!
