The Perfect Fall Skirt

A lot of women complain about having to wear maternity clothes and do all they can do avoid them while pregnant. As someone who believes in dressing correctly for your current body type, I believe in maternity wear. But once in a while I see something I love so much I get upset I have to sit out the season. This Calvin Klein skirt is THE PIECE I really want, but can’t have, this fall.

Why is it the perfect skirt for Fall 2013? It covers multiple trends including Graphic Black and White, Punk, Leather and Chic Minimalism. It is also vegan, affordable, and goes from day to evening. I hope you like it as much as I do.

TO WORK
Top with a graphic black and white blazer to tone down the “leather-ness” of the skirt for work. Add a flattering white shirt, then choose your accessories. Will you add a feminine touch with a bow bag and matching tonal pump? Or will you keep it chic with a black and white tote and a pop of fuchsia in the shoe? Whatever you do, have fun!
