I couldn't resist picking up this skirt yesterday... I'm way too predictable in my infatuation with full skirts. I remember when I was five years old and obsessed with circle-skirted dresses; I would spin and twirl around to see my skirt fan out until I fell down from the dizziness. I also would lay out my skirt around me in a perfect circle every time I sat down in preschool. As you can see from this blog, the obsession with them has carried over to adulthood and beyond. Looking at this outfit made me realize just how girly/50's housewife I looked today...I might have to rock it up or something tomorrow. :)
Thanks for the suggestions on how to wear the cape yesterday! I will look into your suggestions.

  1. I looked at that skirt this weekend and thought it was so pretty and feminine, but I wasn't sure about the length. It looks incredible on you, and Forever 21 can thank you because I'm probably going to go get it now. I love the purple/blush tones in this outfit, and the leopard belt and pumps are perfect litte accents. Your styling is always impeccable.

  2. Tiffany: Just make sure you wear some heels with it! I think it helps a lot in terms of the long length.

  3. I concur about full skirts. My grandma used to make me dresses when I was a little girl, complete with little aprons and everything! Some of them had petticoats under as well. There's nothing better, especially since I was a little fashion bug even back then.

  4. I love the rose color with the leopard print shoes & belt...wouldn't have thought of pairing the two.

  11. I love the skirt, England is really lame at the moment for skirts, they're either insanely short or trail on the floor long, it doesn't help I'm 5ft 2, I have long legs for my height but all skirts either trail on the floor or are knee length because mini skirts are just not mini. Unless I want a knee length skirt then I can't get one.

    The entire outfit looks fabulous.
