Pleats are so on trend right now! They are perfect for holiday parties. Pleats add a touch of fancy to any outfit! I purchased my first pleated skirt back in July. It is green and black, and hits just above my knees. I totally plan on wearing it this holiday season with a black sweater, some black tights, and some cute black booties. Some of my favorite bloggers are featuring pleats on their Instagram accounts and on their blogs. Metallics, deep burgundy and blush tones, maxis and midi skirts, shiny satins and plush velvets. These pleated skirts can be styled […]
