Style Champion Saturday: The trick to wearing pleats
Hello Friends,
As we all try to stay warm against this crazy weather just knowing how great you can look warms up the heart, well maybe that and some thigh boots. A look that I look to transition from season to season is a classic pleated skirt, but pleats are not limited to only skirts, dresses and tops incorporate pleats to add interest. Now it can be tricky because pleats tend to add weight if you don't know how to style it.
I love to wear pleated tops because they can be as loose or as structured as you like. Just know to balance your outfit, if you have a flowy top, wear fitted bottoms and if you have a fitted top wear a looser bottoms. Have fun mixing textures.
Pleated dresses are easy because the work is done for you. Just be careful with a lot off pleats, it could add more weight to areas that you don't want it too. But feel free to add a leather moto jacket or cozy sweater to add interest.
My personal favorite is the pleated skirt, the colors, the lengths, the texture.....LOVE. The skirt allows you to be the most creative. You can wear wifebeaters, statement tees, jean shirts, boyfriend sweaters, etc....just add a belt too create balance.
Whatever look you decide on don't forget to accessorize!
Love you, mean it, always your girl
