It’s time for a style tip!  Today’s tip is not just for summer; it involves something that can be made wearable year round.  In fact, the tiered skirt is about to be everywhere for Fall/Winter 2018, especially in black.

This is a versatile piece that can be dressed up or down, worn just about anywhere, any time of year, and with just about anything. The rule of thumb is to wear it with sandals and lightweight tops in the warmer months, and to layer it and add tights and boots in the colder months.  In transitional weather, add a topper like a jacket or cardi.

Here’s today’s style tip:

A tiered skirt can be worn with tees and tanks, flats or heels, over a swimsuit, and for travel.

Because of its versatility, age doesn’t matter.  All you have to do is style it with attention to proportion.  Then look in the mirror for a final assessment before going out the door to make sure that your waistline is slim or shaped, with a fitted or tucked top.

If you wear a top that is longer in length, keep the skirt and top in the same color tone, like this:
