Pleated skirts seem to be taking over at the moment and to be honest, I’m delighted about it! I love how they make your figure look, almost a perfect hourglass without the need of a waist trainer! I have a few tucked away in my summer closet but fancied something a little more luxe as we creep into winter. Something I can wear with my heels one day and a chunky knit and trainers the next, so when I spotted this beauty in M&S I knew it had to be mine!
M&S Limited Edition Pleated Metallic Skirt £35
I did find [I do with most skirts this style] that I needed to size up, as the waistband is a little snug and with most items of clothing I buy, its longer on me than most as I’m petite at 5’2.
I’m still being really good when it comes to my spending so I’m making sure that the pieces I buy will A) Have a great shelf life and B) Can be styled with clothing I already own!
So with that in mind, here are 4 ways that I plan on wearing my new M&S skirt…
Dressed up here with a black slim fit jumper from ASOS [old, similar here] Heels Christian Louboutin [similar here] and bead detail bag from Primark.
Olive metallic jumper Whistles [still available here ] Fishnet socks Primark and shoes as above.
Striped linen bretton H&M [old similar here] Leather jacket Mango [old similar here] Brogues Clarks [similar here] and socks as above.
Pink jumper H&M [still available here] Adidas Superstars [similar here]
So there are a few ideas on how I’m styling mine and heres a little inspiration from Pinterest…
