Give Us 2016 Style, Pretty Pleats?

2016 is really here and so is Spring Summer fashion.  Of course, we need to get through this somewhat brutal California winter (Just so you know…….……….anything under 50 degrees is harsh, at least we think so) Anyway,back to business. While we're still wearing ponchos, rain boots, suede Moto jackets, and knit hats(So fashionable by the way), Styled to Profession is here to warm up the forecast ( Well, at least for your wardrobe. The actual weather, there’s not much we can do but count down until spring. Still with us?)

First up, silhouettes that will help you accentuate your New Year’s Resolutions (Great thing is, doesn’t matter whether you are actually sticking to it or not.  This trend  looks great on most figures anyway.)

Puhhhhhleeeeeats, No really…pleats have never been so fun. Shorter pleated skirts show off those legs you’ve spent hours toning, longer skirts/dresses provide a less dramatic form for those inconsistent gyms months. Pants and shirts, are the ultimate coverage. (Think of it as using camouflage to become a shape shifter………especially after enjoying the plethora of good food guaranteed to shift some things around……uh huh!)  Relax, it’s not the private school style look you remember……These pleats are updated, fun, and in some cases micro……

Here are just a few of our favorite finds

It seems we love the 1970's at Styled to Profession. Add booties and a leather for a bit more of an edge. Pearls and pumps add traditional glamour to this look.
