When I think of skirts, I think of my secondary school days in Nigeria. Memories from years of me wearing crisply ironed navy-blue pleated skirts and a white shirt as part of my school uniform. When I finished from high school, my style tilted more towards denim, leggings, pants and anything other than skirts lol. And to be honest, I felt safer wearing those other pieces of garments: one didn’t have to worry about an unruly wind that could uncover my derriere without my permission haha! However, with a quick glance in the fashion scenes, one would notice that pleated skirts are back with a vengeance.  The colors and styles patterns are more daring or delicate and I am loving every piece of it. When I tried on the first pleated skirt that I ordered from Shein.com I felt a wave of nostalgia from my secondary school days.  Pleated skirts are classic pieces that are always elegant. They can be styled either with a pair of heels or sneakers and would still leave one looking fabulously chic.
