maxidress on a first date? If your gut
reaction is “forget it,” think twice:
By adding everyday items to special
occasion wear, you can truly get the
most out of your closet and look FAB!
Love Story =
Chambray Shirt +
Sequin Mini
Wool Overcoat +
2012
Instead of pairing a classic
button-down with something
obvious, like colored denim,
a glittery miniskirt throws a
fashion curveball. The result?
A fun-loving, casual look.
Why it works: Mixing matte
items with sequins cuts down
the sparkle of the skirt.
Sexy Sophisticate = You might expect that leather worn with a metallic top would scream “trying too hard,” but this pencil skirt in basic black is pure class while the gold tone acts as a neutral.
Why it works: When texture
and shine enter the equation,
the most standard shapes
become interesting.
When to wear it: This outfit
will work for a creative office
environment, as well as for
an evening out.
When to wear it: Sleek enough
for an interview; alluring
enough for cocktail hour.
Work the look: Wear flats in-
stead of heels. Leave the shirt
untucked for a relaxed vibe.

a subtle flash of skin in an
otherwise covered-up look.
