Its time to get a little personal with you all. Sometimes we all get carried away by the pictures and outfits and never really get to know the person behind it.

Most of the time social media lets us show the world what we want them to see not who we really are.

Typically, pleated skirts are usually seen to be worn during spring but who says it can not be worn all year. You can wear it shorter when the temperate rises and longer during the cooler seasons.

Pleated skirts flatter all figures due to the fitted waist, creating a ladylike silhouette.

I would be showing different ways to rock this trend;
- Dress it up with a casual sweater

- Wear it to work with a crisp button up shirt and black heels

- You can wear it with a crop top

- Create that sporty-casual vibe with a pair of sneakers and denim jacket

- Wear it with a sleeveless blouse and ankle boots.

Would you invest in a pleated skirt this season? if yes how would you style it.

XOXO

P.s. This post was inspired by Topshop's collection of beautiful clothing

Sometimes all it takes is a basic, simple clothing item with the most versatile print to look fabulous.
There is something sophisticated about a striped-shirt look, but it can be a little boring.
Try switching it up by tying the front to give it an updated look.  
               
How would you switch up your striped shirt? If you don't have one in your closet, do you plan on getting one?
