Pleats, Please

Today I wore my Banana Republic accordian pleat skirt and it continues to be one of my favorite new pieces.  You can see how I styled it previously in my Banana Republic Desk to Dinner post.

Even though it is more of an A-line shape, it wears just as well as a classic pencil skirt and is just as versatile.  Fuller skirts with pleating also have a sort of feminine and flirty feeling to them and they're a nice option if you're looking to step outside of the pencil skirt box.

Skirt- Banana Republic (buy it here!
this one fits large so size down, mine is a small & I could have gotten XS)
Shoes- Nine West (buy them here)
Top- Target (similar; another option
Belt- Express (buy it here; similar)
Blazer- Artizia (similar)
Necklace- Stella & Dot "ever after" necklace, c/o


Have a great night everyone!

It looks great on you, Veronika! Club Monaco had some similar skirts last year in a bunch of cute colours that I regret not getting.

I wanted to get the skirt from banana republic and after having a baby I don't fit my usual size anymore (prior was a 0p) So I didn't wanna buy online til I tried it on! Thanks for letting us know that it runs big!

I have a pleated skirt that I find translates really well into weekend wear with a striped tshirt and pair of sandals. Would love to see you style this casually as well!

Love the belt. Super cute. And I love those shoes. Seeing them in a bunch of your outfits made me order a similar pair from Aldo.

I love a good pencil skirt, but I need to step out of my comfort zone as well. I've been looking for the perfect a-line skirt, but have yet to find it. Love your outfit!
