 Which skirt to incorporate into your Wardrobe?

 Well, Spring is around the corner and one of the trendiest fashion items this season is the mini skirt. However ladies, don’t despair if you are not in love with your legs or feel a mini is too young for you, as the fitted pleated and pencil skirts are also a sure-fire way to add a dynamic new look to your wardrobe this season. This season is all about sensuality, so think prestigious fluid fabrics and slit skirts.

Try a knit mini in a neutral colour with a fitted tank in a bright turquoise to create a chic day wear look, and don’t be afraid to stand out in a elegant mini-dress, belted at the waist for that evening party. Choose a drapey fabric that skims rather than clings to your shape. Add a sexy heel to perfectly finish your long-legged silhouette.

The Pleated Skirt – pleated skirts are everywhere and every length this spring and their beauty is that they flatter all figures. You can opt for a mini with pin tuck pleats or for a more versatile look that can carry over to the office, opt for a knee length skirt, slightly flared at the knee with box pleats. Combine it with a fitted, brightly coloured collared shirt or silk blouse for a stylish, professional look. Keep the top simple, so no big prints or embellishments as the pleated skirt itself will be the highlight. Be sure to complete the ensemble with a fabulous waist belt to enhance your femininity.

It’s professional and trendy all in one and works for most body types. Whether your more slender or curvy, the pencil skirt will create a flattering, feminine classic silhouette. Combine it with a colourful underpinning and a fitted black jacket for a simple up-to-date elegant look. A pencil skirt accentuates the waist and the jacket should do the same, so ensure the jacket or separate blazer is fitted properly. Make sure it is knee-length or falls just below the knees, but is not longer than that. Otherwise it will look frumpy. Choose a style with a slit for an extra touch of feminine. Finish off your stylish, sleek look with bold, colourful accessories. Opt for heels in a colour other than black to give an fashion forward edge to a monochromatic ensemble.
