Is it just me or are these two pieces EVERYWHERE right now?! I keep seeing pleated skirts & bomber jackets styled in different ways & it makes me want to wear them all day every day in a different way. I've seen pleated skirts styled with classic button downs, casual tee shirts & sporty sweatshirts while bombers have been through over dresses, jumpsuits & jeans. It seems almost impossible to find a bad way to style a pleated skirt or a bomber.
Believe it or not, today's post is actually slightly St Patrick's Day inspired! I'm not Irish & green isn't my favorite color, so I went for a more subtle forest green shade but I still think this bomber jacket is a great piece for this week to nonchalantly dress in the spirit of St. Patrick. Adding green to my look was surprisingly easier than I had originally thought because there are so many different shades. Looking back, I wear green more often than I realized: in a statement coat, an olive dress, a pencil skirt, even a jumpsuit.

What a fantastic pairing of two springs hottest trends, and with little booties because it is winter still in some parts. I love it all!

It is definitely still winter here in NY! I was freezing taking these photos
DeleteNo, it's not you, I'm seeing bomber jackets in every store now. My problem is I want one in every color! For the longest time I couldn't even find a bomber anywhere, now they are every where. I think the stores in my area always take a little longer to catch up to what's on the blogs. I love your bomber. I finally bought one myself, in a burgundy color. I can't wait till the weather warms up again so I can wear it!
ReplyDeleteThey are all around right?! I'm having the same issue! I want a pink one & a printed version especially! Burgundy sounds gorgeous
DeleteWhat a fantastic look Michelle! Your skirt is gorgeous and the color of your bomber is just beautiful!!

Isn't it the best?! I'm obsessed with the cuteness of Kate Spade!
DeleteSo many things to love in this look, Michelle!! I was lusting over your bomber when I spied that clutch. Then the pleats of your skirt are so delicate and pretty. And do I spy leggings? Or are those somehow a mad, brilliant part of the skirt that I'm not getting? One word, LOVE.
ReplyDeleteThank you! So glad to hear you are loving this look! YES I am wearing leggings underneath the skirt! Partly because it's slightly sheer & also because it was freezing!
DeleteWhat a cool skirt!!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for hosting!
Such a lovely look dear!

I’ve seen pleated skirts paired with classic button-downs, casual tees, and sporty sweatshirts, while bombers are thrown over dresses, jumpsuits, and jeans. It feels like there's no wrong way to style them! I’ve even found some great bomber jackets at "https://blackbomberjackets.com/" Black Bomber Jacket for some inspiration.
