A few months ago on a trip to one of my favorite consignment stores I found the cutest skirt. It didn't have a label in it and looked to be a one-of-a-kind beauty. I immediately loved the print of the fabric and the cut of the skirt itself. It is an A-line skirt and the print is a blend of patterns with blues and greens. As I talk about often, I love it when a gem in my wardrobe can be worn in different ways. Not only can I wear this skirt in different ways and in different seasons, again I mention, it was $12 bucks!
Here is how I wore it first:
In late November I wore it with a black turtleneck, jean jacket, tights and my all time fav MaryJanes. Everything I'm wearing isn't available anymore, but here are some suggestions that are close
Here is how I wore it today:
Today I wore the skirt with a simple gray long sleeve tshirt, a black cardigan and black boots.
The t-shirt is still available here: http://shopstyle.it/l/vY6N and the cardigan here: http://shopstyle.it/l/vY7v Both are on sale! (p.s. these too are affiliate links, just so you know).
I am looking forward to Spring (I mean is anyone not???). Here is one way I will be wearing the same skirt when Spring finally shows her face:
This is a simple tie waist white shirt from Chico's (no longer available) and my favorite pink Dansko clogs (also not available). I did post some items similar for you to check out
All three of these looks are easy to duplicate. Choose a great skirt and wear it with some simple closet basics - a long sleeve tshirt, turtleneck, white blouse and layer (depending on your preference) with a cardigan or jean jacket. Add your favorite shoes or boots - simple or with a pop of color or flair and there you have it. A fun, easy to wear skirt is the star of all of these outfits - it just happens to be a bonus because I got it for such a great price and it's wearable in any season. Check your closet - if you wear skirts - I bet there is one you can pull from your wardrobe, match with the same items as I have, and wear it multiple seasons.
Have fun putting together a new look and of course, owning your style.
