What I Wore: Shirt and Belt (Old), Skirt (Borrowed from Marisa), Petticoat (Portland boutique), Shoes (Old Navy) |
I love to give skirts and dresses just a little bit of extra umph! by adding a petticoat. Even so, leaving a bit of petticoat exposed below the hem is a new twist for me, but this Flock Together item seemed like a perfect opportunity to try something a bit different.
What's great about this skirt is even though the plaid can just scream "Christmas!" and "wintery," it also can just as easily shout "summer fun!" Marisa wore it with a cute red belt and looks ready for a picnic too!

That petticoat idea was amazing! It really made the outfit special- and I thought of about 3 skirts I can do that with. I really got to invest in one ;) I especially love the picture of you twirling. I feel like in a skirt like that, it'd be super hard to resist that urge haha
ReplyDeleteSuch a lovely outfit Kristin! I absolutely love the idea of adding a petticoat under a a-line skirt to give it more swung ^^ Also, it doesn't bother me that there's a bit of petticoat visible under the hem of the plaid skirt, it's actually a very nice detail! x
ReplyDeleteThanks Nikki! The petticoat is purposely showing, so I'm glad you feel it works :)
