So it's Visible Monday again. I am trying that pleat-skirt look that is everywhere right now. It was sunny out so I didn't wear my army boots.
The skirt is actually way old, it's a summer weight Esprit from who knows how many years ago. It was still cold though so I wore thick tights and a fuzzy zip-front sweater:
The neat thing about this sweater is that the sleeves unzip and you can wear it like a vest:
Here is a closeup of the pleats in the skirt:
It all seemed a bit drab so I added the touches of red, including a hair accessory
Unfortunately, I felt very thick due to the cummerbund-style waist and the whole day I thought I should've worn Docs instead.
Meanwhile on the blog front, I'm trying to add pages and have started with a Blog Parties tab. Hope you like it.
I love that pleated skirt - I have one in solid red that I wear a lot! I really like the zip-off sweater too, so cozy. Thanks for linking up to Visible Monday, Narda!
ReplyDeleteI remember that one! You styled it with that ruffly blouse.
DeleteNarda--Actually, the red cumberband was my favorite part of the outfit. At first I thought it was an obi belt! the color of it adds an interesting contrast. I wore pleats on Monday too.
ReplyDeleteHi Terri: That was the look I was going for - an obi belt, but it felt like a real obi belt - thick.
