Day and night...

Saturday, June 22, 2013
 

Ok, before you sigh over that fact that I am, in fact wearing THAT skirt, hear me out.  I saw this online months and months ago and wanted one, but I didn't really know how to wear it.  Well, a few weeks ago, I found this one at SheInside (for less $$ than at Zara!) and knew that it was fate.  I just couldn't live without it any longer.  I've probably spent hours perusing blogs and observing how different people have worn it, and since it seems to get dressed up quite often, I thought I'd have a go at dressing it down!  

... but then, since I got new shoes, I just had to dress it up, as well!  I even made my best "serious model" face once it was dressed up!  Which look do you like the best?  Day (up) or night (down)? 




(Trying to look indifferent of the fact that my legs look ridiculously long, but are actually quite short)

Top c/o H&M
Skort c/o SheInside (A quick note on these: My XS American self fits into a M!  Plan for Asian sizing if you order!)
Shoes (both pairs) c/o Charlotte Russe
Fedora c/o Target
Necklace c/o Etsy

    1. Did you get it a size bigger than your actual size? That was the only thing with this! The Asian sizing is so tiny and even though I'm usually a 0, I ordered a medium!

  23. Who cares if everyone has it cause it looks great on you! Also, good on you for finding that skort for less than it cost at Zara. I too have that skort and I think it's fabulous :) There's just something about it that makes it so appealing and apparently the must have piece. lol!

    1. It's so fun and different. I didn't think I'd ever wear a skort again after grade school, but I was definitely wrong. I kind of want to get this in a few other colours!
