Skirting The Winter Blues

Skirting The Winter Blues

Cobalt Blue or as I often refer to it Yves Klein Blue is a great way to brighten a gloomy winter day, It is very versatile and goes with just about everything: black, brown, grey, red, purple, orange, yellow, and naturally other blues.  Whether you wear it head to toe, as an accent piece, or to just add a touch of color. This color is one of my very favorites, is on trend, and a…

A-Line Skirts

By

A-line skirts are the Houdini of skirts. They magically create an A-line shape (Thus the name!) and hide all the parts that most women are self conscious about. Any body type can wear these A-line skirts. The shape allows space for a bold pattern like the Etch Flower Midi A-Line skirt from Topshop or Derek Lam’s Leather and suede patchwork skirt. For something more classic Alice + Olivia’s Box Pleat Midi Skirt or Acne Studios’ Grid…

I love a Maxi Skirt. It doesn’t matter what season it is. They are dramatic and create a long line.

A bright color like the Martin Grant Satin Maxi Skirt ensures Maxi-Mum fun. These skirts can go Street to Gala, depending on how you style them. In the…
