Can you tell I’ve been kind of obsessed with midi skirts lately? I gotta say I am a big fan of them! Here’s why: maxi skirts are a bit too bulky while some above the knee skirts can be a little too short–but midis are just right. You can wear them comfortably in warmer Spring weather without leggings or tights.
Another thing I’ve been into lately is mixing splurge items with more affordable ones. For example, this Forever 21 skirt and tank top were very affordable but the shoes and jacket were slightly pricier. It’s really all about deciding what you want to splurge on and knowing when things are worth it. These shoes, for example, are 100% worth the splurge (though I did find them marked down a bit–score!). I had been eyeing them for a little over a year, waiting for them to go on sale, and when they finally did I pounced. These shoes, called the “Royale Flat,” are manufactured in Spain and the leather and overall workmanship is quality. I was pleasantly surprised since it’s hard to find shoes that are well made these days. I can tell I will be living in these this Spring and Summer–they have a lovely shape and look great paired with skirts! Included in this look are a few very inexpensive accessories–these Civion sunglasses and a lovely vintage Cameo necklace found at a thrift store. Gotta love those thrift store finds!
