The timeless elegance of another black skirt
You may not believe it, but I bought another black skirt, such timeless elegance. And another one that I really didn’t have yet. A black pleated skirt. Yes, I had one once, but that was years ago and it was no longer the right length. You totally get me, right? What would we do without pleated skirts these days? I just can’t imagine them out of a fashinistas heart. I’m a fan pleated skirts. Precisely because they are so cool to wear. I never wear them with an elegant shoe or a feminine blouse. Then I think it becomes way too frumpy. No, especially with a graphic tee or with a biker boot. Also perfect for a festival look! And hey, there is a festival coming our way soon!
The timeless elegance of pleated skirts
I remember well that when I first started blogging, about 9 years ago, I followed an English blogger. I don’t remember her name and I’ll never see her in blogging land anymore. But I saw her wearing pleated skirts. In all kinds of colours. In the beginning I had to get used to it a bit, I found it a bit fiddly. But I soon saw the timeless elegance of a pleated skirt.
I’ve had a lot of them and sold a lot of them. Because there are materials that make you look very poofy, and others fall very nicely along your body. I think this one was my favorite. I actually had to gave that one up, totally worn out. The colour and the material were so beautiful. But I wanted a black one again. Actually, I think it’s a bit too long. But gosh, how the prices of a tailor have risen! So I’ll leave it be. I don’t have such beautiful legs to show anymore anyway.
How I like to wear this elegant pleated skirt
Just like simple black trousers a black skirt also has a timeless elegance. It doesn’t need much to shine. But if you like colours, I don’t think you will agree with me. Not necessary of course. So many people, so many flavours. That’s what makes the world beautiful. Although it has not been so nice in recent years. Is it because you get older that you are much more worried about the suffering of the world? And you think: how is this going to work out? Pff, what misery people do to others.
Okay, on with the outfit! In contrast of the skirt I like to wear something cool on it. Like a denim blouse or leather jacket. I love this blouse, pre loved, as new, €7, fits like a glove! What more can you ask for! And new fabulous sandals. That feel like wearing slippers. Not only is this a super stylish outfit(in my eyes) but super comfortabe too! Win win!
