Pleated
It is hot, hot, hot in Boston right now! Don't worry, I am in no way complaining...I am actually basking in it. I told you all earlier this week that I would be sharing some looks from Tobi that are perfect for the warmer days ahead, and now here they are!
This next look that I am sharing from Tobi is based around this backless bodysuit. I love a good bodysuit! The tight fit that they provide make them the perfect base to any outfit. I especially love this one because it is entirely backless, so it is a bit more daring, and skin baring, than I usually do. However, even though I am showing a lot of skin with this look, it did not mean that I had to completely depart from my style, which I think usually veers more towards being classic vs. trendy.
In order to incorporate this bodysuit into a look that was ultimately me, I paired it with a pleated midi skirt. This way, I am still somewhat modest, even though my entire back is bare! If you don't have a midi skirt in your closet, pleated or not, you need to get one! You can dress them up and wear them to work, or you can throw one on with a t-shirt and sandals to wear it to the local farmers market. You can even do what I did, and dress it up for a sophisticated, going-out look! If I've sold you on midi skirts (which I hope I have) I have linked a few of my favorites below, along with the rest of this look!
Things to take away from this post:
1) Bodysuits are perfection!
2) Your closet is incomplete without a midi skirt!
3) You don't have to sacrifice your own sense of style to wear pieces that are currently "on trend", or that you think wouldn't normally work in your wardrobe!
