pleat it out...


something about the pleat...that is oh so feminine...many tend to shy away from pleats...be it the size of their hips...mostly...but the thing is...pleats come in so many forms...wide, narrow, inverted, boxed...you name it!

when it comes to pleats...which you can find many variations of in stores currently...as it is one of the current spring/summer trends...in skirts...they appear in all lengths...i say...try a mid-length pleated skirt with a wedge heel for a fabulous new outfit...

but don't stop at the skirt...you can also find them in many other pieces...i thought i would show a few examples...currently in the fabulous finds consignment boutique...

loose flowing pants...

pleated work around the collar...

or just a little pleated detail on the back of a jacket...

whether you decide to go all out pleats...or just show a little pleated detail...be sure to pleat it out...one way or another...

beyond the basic pant...

it was just a few weeks ago...that i was chatting it up about the colored jean...and although i have not found my perfect pair...i am now looking for that AND the perfect colored pant...think bright...

yes...the basic pant can be fabulous as well...pairing it with the right top & shoes...you can pretty much make a very glamorous outfit...but how fun to add some color...when everyone is wearing black, grey, brown or blue pants...go beyond the basic...and add a splash of color...

when you find the perfect pair...keep in mind...less is more...with the bright colored pants...think quiet shades for the rest of your outfit...including the shoes & jewelry...

here are the top contenders so far...
