Bordeaux suede

Jumper - COS, Skirt - A.P.C, Shoes - A.P.C., Bag - Louis Vuitton Sofia Coppola

It is not like me to wear colour, but this skirt caught my eye when I saw it last year in the A.P.C. SS15 presentation. The hue isn't overly bold, a perfectly subtle bordeaux. The addition of topstitching creating a decorative seam added to my love. As usual, I have had the skirt altered, otherwise it would have been down to my knees. 

This skirt is perfectly trans-seasonal, as shown in this outfit I am wearing it with tights, but I can imagine it with bare legs and sandals when the weather becomes warm. 

I feel A.P.C. have taken upon the mentality of the 60's - 70's styling, the use of the a-line traditionally associated with the 60's. The colour of the skirt seems to be inspired by the rose tinted view of the 70's.
