No Skirting the Issue.

Skirts are so versatile & fun. Try different lengths, textures and fabrics.

Pencil Skirts: Key is too make sure it fits well in the waist, across the hips and no pulling at seams or zipper. Buy the best quality you can afford it will show.

Carwash Fringe Neiman Marcus Tadashi carwash skirt

Look for fun details, fringe, ribbon trim or classic pleating

A-Line Skirts are the easiest to fit. Make sure the skirt fits well in the waist. If the skirt has a lot of volume pair with a fitted top.

Does this tan, green & red chevron stripe pattern remind you of any well known Italian Designers?

Have fun with mixing textures Vintage knit skirt button down blouse

Add a belt or blazer. Try new styles and enjoy. 🙂

Sheer or transparent fabrics are making a comeback… think Madonna, lace tops. Thought it would be fun to highlight how to wear this from runway to the office. So, there is the beautiful lingerie approach with full covered briefs which is for the few and brave. I remember Katy Perry wearing something like this to Paris Fashion Week, a few years back.

Depending on the look you would like to achieve, here are the tricks. If you want the item to look lined or “nude” wear nude undergarments.

If you prefer contrast.

Gianni Bini silk Top. DOSA lace trim cami.

Gianni Bini beaded silk top. Agent Provocateur bra.

Lace Bra Cremieux blouse. Lise Charmel bra

Body lined in same color.

What you decide to wear depends on your mood and the event. I suggest having great nude & black basics. This would include smooth bra, slip, half and full. Search vintage slips, there are some beautiful options. Also a body shaper like Spanx or Donna Karan, both available at Nordstrom, work well. You will be glad you have them when you need them.

Cheers,
