The Layered Skirt

The layered skirt is a beautiful expression and visualization of the multifaceted nature of a woman.  She ascends to higher and higher heights in her growth, shockingly springing forth unrevealed qualities of her being.  This is the New 21st Century Woman.

Dennis Basso's Spring 2013 Line reveals the beauty of graceful power.

 

But, the same layers can be a more free flowing display of tribal ethnicity and unexpected waves of beauty.

And Chris Benz produces another rendition of the same skirt type- a sunshine bright yellow beneath a sheer black combined with a softer floral top and modern pumps.  He's created an eclectic, youthful, yet somewhat "pretty-urban-chic" look.

The Pencil Skirt

I absolutely love the Pencil Skirt.  Here are a few in different colors and styles from Oscar de la Renta's Spring 2013 Line.

You can either dress up the pencil skirt or dress it down.  You can wear a jean pencil skirt with a t-shirt and heels.  You can wear it with a dressy blouse and classic heels, for a romantic look or you can wear it with a collared shirt and conservative heels, for a more corporate-business look.

No matter what, wearing a pencil skirt will create a classiness that exudes timelessness.

Accessorize it with matching jewelry and a cute purse and you're good to go!
