You may have seen this velvet pleated skirt on my Instagram account already (here and here). I’ve never been a huge fan of velvet, but let me tell you why this piece has me head over heels.

How to Wear a Skirt Over a Dress

First of all, let’s talk about the gorgeous mustard color, which is so quintessentially fall. The warm golden tone makes it easy to pair with other prints, patterns and colors — as evidenced by everything else going on in this outfit. The midi length and pleated detail adds a bit of sophistication to the piece, but I prefer to make it a little more fun by mixing leopard print flats and a navy floral print “top” (which is actually just a dress layered underneath). I’ve also paired it with this olive floral print dress, just to show you that mustard pretty much goes with pretty much every shade for fall.
