 Welcome back to my channel guys it's your girl Coco Styles and in today's video we're going to do a how to style pleated skirt. Now I do have a skirt on now and this skirt is from Mango. Mangoes is a really good, it's almost like a maybe a Zara, a little bit better quality than Zara in my opinion but it's still high street but I'm going to start with this skirt here. The focus is going to be on the skirts so I do not have on shoes however I will take a picture in some shoes that I would actually wear this with. So this skirt is in a large, I am 6 feet so I do not like short skirts so I would typically go for something like this. The top that I have on is from Zara. This is just a basic Zara top. Where I am in Atlanta it's not that cold so I wouldn't wear this by itself. I would actually throw something on over it, maybe a jacket or maybe a cape or something like that. So this is the first skirt. You can wear it by itself or you can wear it with a belt. I do have it on with a belt that I got from Zara, this belt I believe I featured it in my last haul. I ended up keeping it, it's a tad big but I do like the belt. So this is the skirt, it is a faux leather skirt. I like the finish of the skirt, it's not too plastic looking if that makes sense. It does have a little bit of like a faux material inside, this is not sweat or anything. So you won't sweat or anything underneath. It comes down to my shin maybe and again I am 6 feet so if you are taller than I am, I'm sorry shorter it may come down a lot further. So this is how I would wear it on just a regular day where I'm just going out probably for like brunch or something, maybe some nice earrings, couple of bracelets and possibly pumps if it's not too cold. If I'm going to wear something like this, I wouldn't wear this particular one by itself but they do have some that come out a little bit further. But what I would do with this is I would actually throw on just a cover-up over me and this is just a cape. So I would just throw this on over me and just go out for the day. You could actually put your arms through this one, I'm going to see if I can find where I put this, what if I can find it online for you guys but I struggle to get it on. It's actually a leather like cape, I believe it's BCBG, I do, I think it's BCBG, I'll double check but something like this you can just throw over you and just be done. If I decided to wear this shirt and didn't want to take this off, I can leave it on just like this. If I want it, I can wear maybe a long sleeve basic body suit, just a sleek finish, no real detail or anything like that, just keep the look kind of sleek and finish, throw on some boots and they're out the door. So this is how I would style this skirt, this color is like a camel color so you can probably do this with like a denim jacket if you wanted to dress it down, a white tee and if you wanted you could actually wear some sneakers with this. I am not a sneaker head, however I do love shell toes and that's probably something that I would throw it on with if I just wanted to look a little chic and down for the day but still like a lady with a skirt on. So this is how I would actually style this and let me know what you guys think, if this is something that you would wear or you would style this way, let me know if you have any other suggestions on how you would style it but this is how I would style it and like I said with some boots and I'm done. So what I'll do is I'll give you guys another look with this particular skirt, I could take this belt off honestly if I wanted to, switch it over for, let's see, I could switch it over for, what is this, this is the infamous Gucci Marmot belt, I'm not really a fan of this belt anymore, I did get the smaller one because the other one was a bit too large for me, you can wear it like this, again with some same tall boots that would be perfect, actually they don't even have to be super tall because I don't know if you guys can actually see my feet, like I said I am six feet so this comes down rather alone but you can wear some booties with this if you want it and like I said out the door and boom, here's your outfit, so that's another belt you can wear with this, you can definitely dress this up or dress this down if you want it, so that's what I would do with this particular one, let me know what you guys think, I am gonna try on the black one that I have here, let you guys see that, also if you didn't want to be like super dressed up, like I said you can wear some sneakers with this if you want it, I'm probably gonna post pictures on my social media, most likely, and you guys can follow me there at the underscore Cocoa COCO, underscore Styles, New York, I'll link that, so if you want it you can wear it like this, I did take off the belt because I wouldn't wear the belt with this but you can wear something like this if you want it, same boots if you want it or some sneakers like I said, so it just depends on what you're going for that particular day, there's so many ways, I realize that coming from New York City I try to get away from leather pieces but it's just in my blood guys, I don't know I guess it's because I am a New Yorker to the day I die but I love leather pieces, I don't care what it is I just need a little bit of leather and I know it's not the most feminine thing because it can look a little harsh but it's just something that I love and it's just my style but I do like other things but something about leather that I just keep in my rotation I always buy jackets every year regardless of where I'm at so like I said that was look number one so I'll be back with the other skirt in black and let you guys know how I styled that, see you in a second welcome back guys so I did end up changing my earrings to something a little bit more bright and bold because I kept on the same top now the skirt is black now a word of advice guys if you decided to buy any fold of the skirts make sure that it doesn't smell one because I've heard stories about skirts smelling like some sort of fish I don't know and make sure it's not super shiny so I would prefer vegan leather just my preference because sometimes the other PU I think it's called PU leather it just has a really weird smell so this is one way of styling this in my opinion I'm gonna come back with the next look with the same skirt and this is another way I would style it and again something like this I would probably throw a belt over this you can keep it really sleek wear a blazer over this or even a graphic tee and some sneakers maybe and possibly a another throw over you if you do not like sneakers you can definitely wear like some booties if the weather permits probably some strappy shoes right so that's it guys so I'll be back with the next look in a second I see you in a second welcome back guys okay so here's my other look I just threw on a basic white button-down shirt it's not super tailored but it has some room in it so what I do like I just threw on a waist belt over it this is a very decent belt kind of stretchy so it was not gonna really suck you in like a corset but you can pull the string around so this is my other look I would wear something like this again just with some boots and keep it really really simple if I did not like if you don't like something like this you could actually wear something like let's see you probably wear if you're more of a edgy person more of an edge to your style or whatever you could always throw on one of these which I don't even know what you call these things you wear something like this this I had for some time so if you wanted to do something like this you could it just depends you can pull this a little tighter if you want it and simple you could wear it like this or you can wear with the belt depending on what you're going for there are hats and stuff that you can wear a stuff like this you could also wear something like this I just like consider it's like a belt some sort of belt suspender thing but you can also wear this with paint jeans if you wanted to keep it simple but that's also how I would style this one and let me see what else I could you could also take the same same exact top and the same skirt and probably throw back on the same leather jacket if you wanted to you can throw the same leather jacket on if you wanted to and you could actually tie this up if that's something that you don't like don't do it but you can tie it up and wear it like this of course we're a little bit tighter but you can do something like this and simple outfit something simple cheek almost like schoolgirlish kind of if you really think about it and this you can wear sneakers with because this jacket is so sporty but I'm not gonna lie you can still get away with wearing some boots with it so that's another way I would style that and let's see and that's about it actually so what I'm gonna do now is I'm actually going to finish this haul out which is throwing on a simple black top nothing too much because I actually want to show you guys this cardigan here don't mind the wrinkles mango sent this over and it's like sorry they didn't send it over I purchased this and I got it in the mail and it was just folded up really tight so I'm gonna show you how I would style this cardigan I just wanted to add it in this video because it goes with the color of this other skirt so give me a second and I'll be right back showing you guys this and how I would actually style this cardigan so I'll be back guys welcome back guys so I just threw on the cardigan I would not wear with this skirt however this sweater my arms are not like super long but I would not wear this sweater fold it down I think it's supposed to be short anyway but what I would do is if it is really nippy outside I would definitely wear some gloves with this sorry guys I have on a watch try to pull this over I would definitely wear but something like this really simple I think I got these from these are old these are H&M like old if anybody knows where I can get longer leather gloves from please link that below so I'm wearing with something like this and simple like I said I love leather pieces guys I too so I would wear some gloves and possibly a hat this is a BCBG hat that I bought some years back and I wouldn't necessarily wear it with a bang of course but I definitely like the fact that the brim of the hat is leather and then I have a leather glove so these are the looks for today guys just just a few things that I want to show you guys how the style these pleated leather skirt will fold other skirts and hi I will style a cardigan I did use a basic white button up and I believe oh yeah this is the basic Zara turtleneck I think these are new but they are the same material as the tank tops that they have so these are a must these are a must have so that's it guys so this video I hope you guys enjoyed it if you guys like videos like this please comment below more try on holes for
