Welcome back my fashion giraffes to another styling Saturday and today is all about styling pleated skirts. The pleated skirt trend has been around for quite some time and I wasn’t sure about it but I decided to get out of my comfort zone.

Styling Pleated Skirts

This skirt I bought ages ago from Asos and loved it because not only was it gold but there’s an undertone of green.

Style it Up!

With the pleated skirt being such a statement piece I decided to keep the rest of the outfit very simple. A black v-neck thin knit jumper from Primark to keep the cold at bay. Fishnet stockings add a bit of a different texture and sex appeal. Finally, I wore some patent ankle boots from Zara that I got in the sale for £5.99! Can this trini girl find a bargain or what!?

I loved how this look came together because all the different textures came together cohesively and it didn’t look too much.

 

For an alternative look, you can add a crisp white shirt and drop the skirt to your hips. Add a vibrant pair of shoes with matching accessories. I can’t wait to restyle this skirt for you over the spring and summer time, so keep a lookout for it!

Tip: Get a size bigger so it drops to your hips and gives an effortless look.

I would love to know, how you would style this pleated skirt? Let me know in the comments below.
