Variety is the spice of life. Woman cannot live in pencil skirt alone. Bring on the flair skirt. Unleash the ‘girly girl’!
When you try something on in a store, sometimes you instantly know if you love it, gotta have it….that was the case with this JCrew skirt I found at Revolve (even though it was too big in the waist, that was easily fixed by my tailor)….I loved the glen plaid and knew it would blend into my wardrobe easily, but it was the fabric (a heavyweight synthetic) that really sold me….the fabric has significant body so it holds it shape and looks very feminine – very ‘girly girl’, yet in a menswear plaid – love that mix! There will be endless ways to style this, but on this particular chilly day, I went for a Kate Spade sweater with a built in white collar, then proceeded to layer up for the elements and the office…….. Looking quite Chanel, don’t you think? Layered necklaces, Ginger’s Chanel bag, suede Gucci booties……A thin leather jacket with a colorful floral scarf are the next layers….I chose the floral as a feminine contrast to the masculine plaid… Black Mackage jacket, wool beret, and I am ready for the cold car – Brrrr! One of these days I’m going to get an automatic car start!!!
