The Skinny on Minis


Break out those mini skirts! The 60’s have returned, ready to make a comeback for spring 2007. On the runway, funky bobs, patent leather bags, and geometric shaped dresses were all the rage, setting the tone for this season’s hottest trend.

Ready to unleash your inner flower child? Here’s the skinny on what you’ll need to be prepared:
During the day, think Jackie O. and dress to impress at the office with a belted dress or a feminine, wide leg pantsuit in a neutral tone like beige or white. Accessorize with an oversized bag in a metallic hue and don’t forget the pearls! Try layering a few strands for an optimum effect.

At night shed the suits and get ready to boogie with a Twiggy inspired mini dress. Dangly chandelier earrings and sky-high platforms work best for this look. For fashionistas like pop star, Kylie Minogue, who aren’t afraid to push the envelope, throw on a pair of opaque tights in a sizzling hue like tangerine or fuchsia. Don’t be afraid to go daring with makeup. Eyes should be intense and dramatic with kohl black eyeliner and mascara, while lips should be downplayed in a nude shade.
