Runway to Workway: Fashion Tip on Denim Skirt

Hello my fashion adict friends!

As you may know, I don't like wearing denim trousers much, only with my cowboy boots or a really spectacular blouse that will distract from the fact that everyone wears them like a uniform...and they have to be skinnies and carrot leg and not the boyfriend type as I don't look good in the loose masculine versions. 

NOt sure why I am telling you all this, as it is beside the point of this post.

I LOVE DENIM SKIRTS and they are very hard to come by actually. 

When I found out that the ex-editor of French Vogue Carine Roitfeld doesn't like to wear jeans much...and prefers denim skirts ... a long time ago, I realized that I love pencil skirts too and when ever I wear jeans I wish I wore something else, like leather pants or dress....or floral print pants, too many options to limit myself to jeans. 

The most amazing denim skirt that I currently own and bought recently on-line shopping at 
J. Crew is "perfect" ! 
Adore the 1950's silhouette and the amazing fit despite it being so very comfortable. More comfortable than any pants can be. 
Check it out for yourself, needless to say that my shopping experience had been just without any hickups, fast, beautifully packed and so easy to do! I may shop on-line more and more...little time wasted and I only buy what I really like...whilst in regular stores I tend to sometime get stuff that I don't like because they often don't have what I am looking for and because of my "I am there and I may just get something as well" attitude.

J. Crew fabulous skirt on a model!

Here it is on me...

Have a lovely rest of the week!

Runway to Workway Fashions: Oscars and Midi Skirts

Hello Ladies,
I had a few Red Carpet favourites and here they are...Which ones did you like?

I love "a son walking his proud mother" there on this infamous red carpet (having said that I will be always happy when ever my son will take me for a one on one walk anyplace)!

And the best dressed ...smiles...is....

Bye everyone.... Red Carpet Fashions are over and it is time to move on to our ...



RUNWAY TO WORKWAY STYLE: midi skirts, 40's elegance please!

It has been my favourite length for a while now, but seriously, every skirt I buy these days is below the knees. What is going on?

Is it because I want to hide my legs? I won't answer that...but can you also see how easy breezy elegant such classic skirt can be without making you feel OLD.

Well, Dries does it particularly well, no doubt. Youthful and playful yet sophisticated ... It is great for any office environment but also for "a stay at home MOM" like me, as one doesn't need to worry that the skirt is too short at the playground or what ever activity your child brings you to...giving you the feminine sophistication to feel respectfully separated from the toddler/ child like attire that one may tend to wear to fit the group! Watch out, save yourself...smiles.

Actually, one more thing, isn't it wonderful that shoes became less dramatic, less multiple platform heights again and small elegant heels returned to us?

All above is by Dries Van Noten (just amazing nouveau) and the last stripes are by Dolce & Gabbana...oh those stripes are making me hot!

And here is something for you ...by Victoria Beckham, shop HERE for the hot red midi skit:

Wishing you a fashionable week with a midi skirt on your shopping list!
