Celebrity Fashion Friday

January 27, 2011 by elysewalker Leave a Comment

One of my favorite trends for spring is the draped wrap skirt, sometimes called a tulip skirt. This is a figure-flattering silhouette that works for most body types, and I love the elegant detail that the draped fabric creates. So try something new–instead of sticking to your tried-and-true pencil or A-line skirts, I suggest investing in a drape-y style. While it’s still cold out, wear it with high boots or opaque tights and heels. Top it with a simple tank, and add a skinny belt to pull the look together. Then throw on a faux fur coat for a glam touch and extra warmth. (If you prefer an edgier look, choose a leather jacket instead of fur.) Then, when the weather warms up, transition to spring by pairing the skirt with killer heels or booties, like the ones my store manager, Lauren, is modeling below.

I recreated Lauren’s draped-skirt look in two different color schemes below.

Earth tones are on the upswing for spring. The first outfit is a combination of taupe and brown hues that will transition well as the weather changes.

J. Mendel silk draped skirt, $1295

Beautiful People silk tank, $155

TopShop groove leather skinny belt, $32

B SABLE faux forest fox jacket, $385

Givenchy skull rosary necklace, $1940

Elizabeth and James suede and snakeskin wedges

To get a similar look in crisp black and white with edgy touches, try these options:

BCBGMAXAZRIA draped satin skirt, $138

American Apparel sheer jersey racerback tank, $18

Calvin Klein reversible skinny fish print belt, $29.99

GUESS? faux fur jacket

Giuseppe Zanotti bullet necklace, $330

Spanx reversible tight-end tights, $34

Sam Edelman studded suede pump, $199
