SOW: Charlotte's Web-Lavender

Feminine and sophisticated, this week's SOW is the Charlotte's Web Lavender!  This is a web you'll want to be caught in for the upcoming holiday season.  Order now and be prepared for your holidays from your work party to a friends get-together.

This lurex lightweight overlay creates a subtle shine to the Charlotte's Web, perfect for a little sparkle for your nicer occasions.  This overlay is more spun together, taking a new twist on lace.  Available in a pencil and classic with a gray cotton underlay.  This skirt is blind hemmed.

With a sea of black that is usually worn to parties in December, a pop of color is a nice change.  This is one of Sevier's more refined fabrics, perfect for a fancy occasion.  Wear this look to work then straight to your company work party.  I went with a monochrome look, choosing a color top in the similar range of the skirt.  To play off the feminine lace, I went with a leather jacket.  With a monochromatic color scheme, make a statement with a fun necklace!

  To go a different color route I like black, white, cream, blush, silver and pink with this color skirt.

To make your legs appear longer, go with like color tights and shoes like I have above.  Order now and be ready for the holidays!

SOW: Weisbrod Black!

There are some Mondays that are just harder to wake up from than others, you know?  Today was one of those Mondays.  Its hard enough getting out of bed, let alone trying to find something to wear and getting out the door.  For a day like today, I went back to black with a great staple that is soon to be in your closet!  The Weisbrod Black is 20% off for this weeks SOW!!

This cotton/silk/ polyester brocade from our Swiss mill is a Pencil or Classic kind of a skirt!  This is a medium weight skirt, great for every season.  The hand to this skirt is wonderful with a circular pattern that is slightly raised creating a nice, subtle texture.

I love this skirt for the office or in place of your LBD(Little Black Dress).  I am all about the monochrome look, I hope you are too!  Pair an eye-catching color top with a like color blazer.  The effect leaves you with a suit-like look.

For longer looking stems, go for nude pumps.  This look also works great with black heels.  Any color top goes with the Weisbrod making this one versatile, easy to match skirt! 

Mother of Pearl

The beautiful weather this weekend, left me inspired to create a Spring outfit.  I needed the perfect skirt to go with pastel colors.  The Mother of Pearl was the first thing that popped in my head.  So with that, we offer you 20% off the Mother of Pearl this week!

The Mother of Pearl fabric is extremely unique.  This skirt isn't lace, and it isn't an eyelet.  It is a netted ivory base with medium scale polka dot motif that has a slight iridescent sheen giving this skirt a little shine!  This overlay rests on a light weight ivory cotton and finished in a silk ivory lining.

I find ivory to be such an underestimated color.  It is so versatile.  I know what you're thinking, 'its basically off-white, of course it's versatile'.  I find ivory more versatile than white because it can be worn all year round.  Do you want to wear white when you are pale as paper in February?  Probably not.

To outfit the Mother of Pearl, I thought to myself, ' what would I wear on Easter Sunday?'  I then started searching for pastel blouses.  Nice, flowing tops that you can tuck into the skirt or leave untucked with a belt wrapped around.  Any color will do: pinks, yellows, purples, oranges, reds, greens, aquas, blues etc.  I went for this teal blouse with yellow egg like shapes on it.  When wearing in the winter, go for a dark contrast top like black to pair with it.

Keep your handbag and shoes neutral, and spring for a pop of color elsewhere in your outfit.  I picked coral earrings to set this look off!

STYLE TIP:  When wearing a form fitted skirt, opt for a less fitted top like a blouse or a peplum top.  On the other hand, when wearing a swing skirt, keep the top fitted! 

SOW: Gotham-Gray

This weeks SOW is far from spooky but lets pretend for this week that it has that Monster Mash quality!  The Gotham-Gray is a beautiful sleek skirt with a sheen to it that says 'fancy'.  This is a medium weight woven with a blind hem.

This skirt is great in a Pencil, and works in an A-line too.  Imagine what you would wear with solid black and pair this skirt with that.  Here I have it Halloweened out with this orange jacket and black pumps.  Besides orange, I love this skirt with blue, green, yellow, red, pink, turquoise, black, white and any other color you would wear with black.

Wear this skirt for work or play, all occasions are appropriate for the Gotham.

Original Price: $190

Skirt of the Week Price: $152

                      

SOW: Olympia Hot Pink

Last week I had a special request for a pink skirt for the SOW to support Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Thank you so much for that reminder.  For the remainder of October, lets keep this topic a recurring theme, shall we?

For starters, this weeks SOW is the Olympia Hot Pink.  This is a great year round skirt.  With a blind hem, it is one of our fancy skirts so I dressed her up below!

Breast cancer mostly affects women so I made this look extra feminine.  Peplum tops are great for women with no natural curve.  They give the illusion of a small waist and curvy hips.  There is nothing more feminine than an hourglass silhouette.  I like the minimal mixed print look I have going on with the leopard scarf.

Coming up this month, I will unveil our official Breast Cancer Awareness skirt, have an interview with one of our own breast cancer survivors and bring you breast cancer awareness tips along the way.  Want to share your breast cancer story?  Whether you were personally affected or a loved one was, I want to hear your story.  Please email me at cpostell@sevierskirts.com to be featured this month.  In our community of women, the least we can offer one another is moral support, advice, and words of inspiration.  Have a great Monday!!
