1 Skirt, 3 Ways!

What I look for in any piece I buy is versatility.  If the piece is one occasion specific, I pass.  With this thought, I took to the Sevier Closet to outfit 1 Skirt, 3 Ways!  I took a staff season favorite: Avalon Brocade Azure, and went to work...

I love the way the girls have this looker styled.  Sophistication at its best with this gray tucked in blouse and nude pumps.  Throw on a gray blazer and head to your nine-to-five.

For a look to take out on the town, I went with this season's trend: leather.  For a different spin on this trend, I went with colored leather.  Orange is blues complimentary color, they are made for each other.  With this in mind, pair the Avalon with orange in any hue.  For fall, I went with burnt orange.  Booties and a statement necklace is the perfect grab for a night out!

Back to my comfort zone with the Casual Saturday look.  Michael Stars comfy Drape Neck-check.  Go-to Saturday jean jacket-check.  Everyday riding boots-check.  Eazy breezy, go-to outfit.  Love.

SOW:Flash Back Lagoon

With wedding season upon us, I know you need a good skirt to rock for all of those photos you'll be in.  For this weeks SOW, I made sure to pick a wedding appropriate fabric.  How does 100% silk sound?  I am excited to present the Flash Back Lagoon as our SOW!

The Flash Back pattern is artistic, sophisticated, and elegant.  This skirt is available in a Pencil or Classic.  Both styles are perfect for a nice occasion.

The Flash Back is eye popping enough, I suggest pairing a solid top with her.  You can go the dark route like the look we have to the left.  Or, lighten up your look with a white top like I have above to the right.  

For the lighter look, I have the Flash Back paired with neutral accessories.  Again, the skirt steals the show so keep the rest of the outfit low-key.

Like to wear a lot of color?  Me too!  I like yellows, fuchsias, and blues with the green in the Flash Back.

                                

Sevier Overlay!

Merriam Webster defines Overlays as: to lay or spread over or across.  To Sevier Skirts an Overlay is: texture rich, eye-catching delicate top layer with lightweight cotton support underneath.  Basically overlays are beautiful fabrics, great for special occasions!

While doing my research this week, aka reading fashion blogs (I love my job!!)  I stumbled upon a new trend.  Overlays all over!  What better spokesperson than Kate Middleton to highlight this dainty trend!

This is an easy outfit to achieve.  First, pick your favorite Sevier Overlay.  Charlotte's Web-Ivory that I have shown above is one of my favorites.  I also love the Charlotte's Web in Lavender!  Now hit the mall or online store and find a lace top in a like color.  The Charlotte's Web Ivory is easy to match because every lace top will always have an ivory option.

Now for the accessories.  The accessories are going to define the look you are going for.  Sophistication with a twist?  Pick a bright belt to wear at your waist like teal.  Want pure sophistication?  Keep all the accessories neutral.

For flattery sake, if you're picking a blousey top pair it with a belt at your waist.  Otherwise, you may appear frumpy.  Always highlight a slim waist if that is one of your assets!
