Skirt Story

This is the story of a skirt....one lone skirt worn 7 different ways.


Let's meet our main character:

Skirt: Tweed pencil skirt, multicolored navy and green, only $79 from Zara.

She is classic, basic and so warm for fall.

#1 Equestrian: skirt is paired with a ruffled white collar shirt and a Huntington plaid blazer with leather buttons. Add some riding boots and you'll be mistaken for a thoroughbred!



#2 Boho Chic: This jewel tone tunic is shown on top of skirt with a long necklace. Spray on some patchouli oil and your chakras are aligned!


#3 Evening out: A metallic shirt with gold accessories like this statement necklace, studded belt and d'orsay pumps dress up skirt for any special occasion. Date night anyone?



#4 City Chic: Skirt is downtown ready with a pleated silk top in an evening tone with a gold chain and grey over the knee boots! Any cabbie will stop for you in this outfit!





#5 Suit: Here we made skirt into a suit! Just add a camel wool jacket and silk blouse and you are CEO for the day!



#6 Romantic: When skirt is worn with a pink blouse with bow sash, swoon, love is in the air!



#7 School days: Skirt is now paired with an oxford blue shirt and a boys corduroy blazer. Don't forget your books because a great satchel would really complete this look!



After 7 days, worn 7 ways our hero the skirt needs a rest (and maybe some dry cleaning)! Thanks for following her through it all!
Love,
S
