I think this Colonel Pickering pleat skirt easily falls into the realm of unusual. I know it’s wool and it’s getting warm but I love it.

This isn’t the only unique looking piece in her collection. There are a few more skirts, shirts and dresses.

The latest craze is the rebirth of the six piece wardrobe. A few months ago I watched the ladies of the View play with six pieces and was inspired to create a plus size version. The basic idea is to use six pieces of clothing to make seven outfits for the week. This type of…
This weekend I went on a boat tour with about 300 people and was surprised to see a similar outfit on a few young women from different parties. I loved the look although I am probably too old for it. Now here is making use of good layering. Why didn’t I think of this in…
