Skirts this shape don't look great on me, however, I've gotten a lot of requests to post something other than skinny jeans or pencil skirts, so I'm taking one for the team. ;-) Wearing a sweater over the waistband (look #1) is better for my body type  (because the heavy sweater weighs down the pleats along the top), however, depending on your body type a shirt tucked in (look #2) could fare better. I love pleated skirts even if they don't love me, and I've been wanting to try a leather or brocade one, see shopping picks below. Which look is your favorite? Do pleated skirts work for you?
