Twirl with Trends
October 13, 2009 | 29th Edition

1. Pencil:
You’re sure to take care of business in this smartly cut style. The sleek silhouette is a classic go-to, especially for professional women. Appropriately cut just above or below the knee, so it’s naturally chic with a suit and effortlessly sexy alone with a silky top.

2. Exaggerated Egg:
Think of this fancifully fun silhouette as the pencil skirt’s slightly wilder sister. Don’t be afraid of this modern style, but if you wear it, you’ve got to rock it! Balance out the shape with a more form-fitting top and let the covetous looks begin!

3. Boot:
Channel Ralph Lauren’s understated elegance in this aristocratic yet modern style. Kick up your heels and have a ball in this essential and sophisticated length for fall. It’s the perfect go-to for the colder winter months, and what better excuse to show off your fabulous fall boots!

4. Pouf:
A whimsically modern update to romantic frills and flourishes lets the girly girl meet the rocker within. Nothing awakens your flirty little flounce and sassy sashes like a playful pouf from the waist to the hem.

5. High Waist:
Just the ticket for that oh-so-sexy hourglass! This classic 40s & 50s style slims at the waist and flatters all body types. Enjoy an endless array of outfit options infused with a ladylike twist. Tuck in your blouse to highlight your happening hotness!



How to Wear: Long Skirts
October 13, 2009 | 29th Edition

howtolongskirts1Length is a skirt lover’s best friend during the chill of winter. Just remember to keep proportions balanced and steer clear of overwhelming tops. Any shoes work with long skirts, but boots will add an extra layer of style to day or night. Whether you lean towards classic, sassy, or on-the-go comfort, express your personal style with long skirts this fall.



Tights, Socks, and Boots, Oh My!

Fall fashion wouldn’t be complete without a bountiful barrage of BOOTS!

  • Knee-high boots are best with long skirts that cover them, or short skirts that show a little skin above them. The key to the perfectly chic knee high boot is making sure that it fits your calf snuggly, without being too tight or too loose.
  • Over the knee boots are most appropriately suited over skinny jeans. To avoid the embarrassment of a mistaken identity, steer clear of pairing them with short skirts.
  • Ankle boots hit at the ankle or just above and look fabulous with skirts of any length! Plus, finding the perfect fit is easy, since they don’t cover the calf.
  • Booties are a chic new addition to the boot family. Hitting at the top of the foot, they add a little fashion forward funk to any outfit.

Trouser Socks with Pumps … yes, its true! Once a fashion faux pas, but now flirty and fabulous for you!

  • Put a little skip in your step, and punch up the personality of a skirt or shorter pant. For skirts, stick with styles that hit at the knee or above.
  • Patterned or plain, colorful or neutral, this trendy trick will add a pop of pizzazz to even the most classic outfit.
  • Like peanut butter and jelly, the colors of your sock and shoe should complement each other, but don’t need to match exactly.

Tights - the original in borrowed from the boys style. Ladies, how about a collective “thank goodness” that we never gave this one back!

  • Feminine and sexy, tights are an easy accessory to add fun and flair to an outfit, all while sculpting and enhancing your legs!
  • Tights with ankle boots or booties of the same color will lengthen the leg, while different colors will shorten it. So if you’re shorter, opt for tights that are the same hue as your shoe.
  • Spice up a neutral or solid outfit with patterned tights. For you adventure seekers, feel free to mix prints — just be careful not to go overboard.
  • An eye-catching color adds extra flavor to a neutral or patterned outfit and can be the perfectly polished finishing touch for your black skirt or dress.
  • We are LOVING Spanx Two-Timin Tights! Not only are they comfortable and all-over slimming, they are reversible so you have two color options!
