5 ITEMS EVERY WOMAN SHOULD HAVE IN THEIR WARDROBE
Pretty Pleats, Please: Yes, my style mavens,
pleats are making a comeback. However, think
of the high-waisted trousers that Katharine
Hepburn made uber chic in the ’30s instead
of the unflattering silhouettes often associated
with school uniforms. Luckily, pleats are being
placed on such a variety of style staples that
you can either pay homage to the Hollywood
starlet’s enviable style by donning a pair of wide
leg trousers with a higher waistline, or you can
embrace a more feminine approach by trying
out a mid-length dress boasting pleats. Just
remember to keep the rest of your look simple
so that you aren’t adding unnecessary volume
to the rest of your silhouette.
