You know you have way too many clothes when you have things in your closet that haven't seen the light of day for over a year and still have tags attached. Sometimes (as is today's case) they are articles of clothing that you love, but yet somehow haven't made it into your regular wardrobe rotation. I feel like my closet has become a gigantic maw, bursting at the seams, but I'm always willing to cram one more piece of clothing inside of its gaping jaws. This is especially true if the article of clothing has one or all of the following: Stripes, polka dots or cute critters/animals. It's easy to see how things pass by the radar and go unnoticed and unworn for extended periods of time.
Well, I love the J. Crew painted rope skirt and I should wear it more often. I initially loved it because of the relatively thick, sumptuous silk fabric. Oh... and did I mention the stripes? Can't get enough of those. When I saw how well this skirt looked with this floral top from Forever 21 I knew it was time to dust it off and take it out for a spin. I'm glad I finally got around to wearing it.

So very pretty--I'm glad that you got around to wearing this skirt too!! I love how you paired these colors and patterns together. I am guilty as well of having clothes with tags still hanging in my closet for the past year or clothes just neglected for some reason, and I'm going to try my best to wear those items before school gets out!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Good luck trying to wear all of your unworn items before school ends. Just a few more weeks I would imagine. Yay!
DeleteSuch a pretty skirt and you should definitely be wearing it more often! Otherwise, pls feel free to send it this way and I'll put it to good use. ;) Btw, was this the skirt that you thought was similar to The Limited stripe skirt? :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! Hmm.. not sure I'm willing to part with it just yet ;)
DeleteYou are right, I did think that this skirt was too similar to The Limited striped skirt. Plus I just have too many striped skirts to begin with, which is why I didn't get The Limited version.
i love this paired with the roses, katie! gorgeous summer outfit! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Laura! It is perfect for all of the nice weather here lately. Hope the weather is sunny by you too!
Deletei really love these two pieces paired together--they are beautiful on their own but go so well together!
ReplyDeleteThanks Hedi! I look forward to pairing these pieces with other things too.
