Blouse: Ann Taylor, old Skirt: Marimekko for Anthropologie Full on Floral skirt, summer 2011 Shoes: Seychelles Necklace: Anthropologie |
With the whirlwind weekend we had I woke up exhausted this morning...as evidenced on my face! I needed something comfortable but cheerful on this rainy day. I love the idea of a crisp white blouse...but the reality is that I always feel like it gets wrinkled and dirty in about 5 minutes flat. Or maybe I'm just a slob... that is entirely possible.
I picked this skirt up at Anthropologie last summer on second markdown...from $198 to $100 to $50. $198 for a cotton skirt...really Anthro? Never going to happen. But $50... I can deal with that price for a fun, work appropriate skirt. For some reason my husband loved this outfit... I can never predict his reaction! I actually received quite a few compliments on the skirt today, which was nice for a rainy Monday!
My shopping halt is going pretty well except for my Anthro indiscretion last Wednesday... This blog has been a great diversion! I hope you are enjoying it too! Thanks for stopping by.
This is my favorite so far too Jeannie!!! I love, love a white shirt! It's one of my secret obsessions :) You look so great.
ReplyDeleteI love this outfit! I love the skirt. I think I want to shop more at Anthropology too. :-) The bright florals are totally in right?
ReplyDeleteI feel the same about white shirts too but they are so classic.
I hope my last comment wasn't offensive. You have done a great job reducing your shopping thus far and should be proud! I admire that you're doing this blog with the hope of reducing spending too.
Oh I love your skirt! So gorgeous. I love versatile clothing items, like this skirt - you can dress it up or dress it down ANYTIME. Good find at a good deal :)
