Let's Try This Again

At the beginning of summer I sprung for this Marimekko "Kivet" skirt from Banana Republic.  Since then I have worn the skirt numerous times and styled it just slightly different with every wearing. For example, in Me, Marimekko and New York I paired the skirt with a graphic tee and kate spade taxi flats. Well, now that it's the end of summer and the beginning of fall I am trying my hand at styling this skirt one more time. Come winter I can't wait to layer it up a little with sweaters and other cold weather accessories.

I think today's styling might have been inspired by my recent viewing of the Lifetime movie The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story. Yeah, it was a really bad movie, but it was so bad it was entertaining. I didn't even really watch Saved by the Bell in the 90s, but I saw the movie anyway. (Lifetime movies are one of my biggest guilty pleasures!) Getting back to the point, the late 80s and early 90s fashions featured in the movie/show somehow invaded my choice of color for this outfit. My husband told me I would probably identify most with Lisa's character on the show since she had a real addiction to shopping and fashion!
