Resort: Part 1


Posted by Dain, Saturday, November 25, 2006 1:11 AM (Eastern)

I'm craving a bit of an update—looking forward to spring (yes, already!). Would that I were going to some place peaceful and warm. But sometimes a little commodity fetishism (it must be admitted) is just the ticket out, albeit a virtual one. For that matter, these clothes are virtual.

The formal perfection of Grace Kelly.

The inspiration for this look.

How to dress around a beige (the color for spring) skirt. I generally work around a bottom as a "foundation" to building a wardrobe. It's the item you most consistently wear over a season. I try to choose something that, (1) is very, very flattering on my body, (2) stands up to everyday wear and tear, and finally (3) is neutral, almost plain, so it goes with absolutely everything.

Barneys New York Pleat Skirt with Pockets: Thus. Crisp shimmery pleated silk taupe. Khakis gone formal. Airy enough for warm weather, but tailored enough to stand up to the softest shirts.
