Burgundy pleats

Hello, and thanks for stopping by my blog!

Burgundy is a great color choice for cold winter weather, 

and so is a hefty fabric, such as faux leather

I styled this deep burgundy pleather pleated skirt earlier this season,

 back in January, in a post about the textiles pleather and faux suede

Are you a fan of leather and suede

and their faux counterparts? How about pleat? 

Both pleather and pleats look like they are going to remain

 on the fashion front for spring and summer,

morphing into lighter weights and colors    

I thought this week would be a good time to restyle this midi skirt,

before the weather warms up too much for my heavy winter fabrics-

which I hope will be soon!

The beginning of spring by the calendar is only a few weeks away,

but the actual temperatures to back it up, will take a little longer, here in Maryland

I am really glad that daylight savings time starts this Sunday

signaling spring is on the way!

This week I am pairing the pleated pleather

 with a cozy cropped oyster white textured weave pullover sweater

Roger got in on this post with me,

wearing his comical cartoon Dr. Seuss neck tie

He has fun with his bold and colorful ties!

Polka dots and Dr. Suess

Carrying an ivory satchel bag with buckle detail

I went with brown tone accessories to blend in with the burgundy skirt

Wide tourtoseshell look buckle belt,

my coveted embossed "The Who" vintage leather strap band bracelet,

and textured silver tone earrings

Chunky cordovan color block heel loafers to finish the outfit

All kinds of pleats have been trending

for several years now, and for all seasons

and on all types of clothing

Here are a couple of outfits worn with pleats in the past

Hope everyone enjoys their week!
