Oh happy day, it's Friday! Despite the long list of errands to run - pantry provisions, banking, other humdrum tasks - I felt downright giddy this morning at the thought of a relaxing weekend. This skirt certainly topped off my mood, as I've been stalking it all season and finally grabbed it during J. Crew's 40% off sale items promo. I guess I could've experimented with pattern mixing, but a) I would've probably come up with a questionable styling and b) sometimes I just like an old school outfit. I felt almost like a schoolgirl in this, as this is something I would've definitely worn in high school, but I am hoping the bracelet and boots kept it away from an "underage and naughty" flavor.

ReplyDeleteI never know how to wear plaid skirts without looking like a schoolgirl, so I refrained from buying the J.crew ones when they were on sale, but I do like how you styled these with your awesome boots :)
hahaha so funny! one of my friends has a son that takes everything and throws it down the heat register- they have to go fish it out! I love your "schooly" outfit!
ReplyDeleteSuper cute outfit - I like your layering.
