Get your mind out of the gutter, I’m referring to the skirt! I actually didn’t realize how much too big the skirt was until I looked at the pictures…after I’d worn it of course. So that means I walked around all day looking like I was sporting a garbage bag. I’m not fishing for compliments here, just being realistic. That’s another cool thing about having a blog. You get a chance to really see what works and what doesn’t. Even though it did indeed feel too big when I put it on, I wore it anyway because I’ve wanted a leather skirt for so long I had to wear it.
Never fear though, when I realized how bad it was, I scoured Ebay and found a different one. Hopefully it will look less like a little girl playing dress up in grown up clothes and more like the smokin’ hot edgy look I was shooting for. I thought about getting it altered, but I have to imagine the cost of having leather tailored would be more than I was willing to spend.
In any case, I love the floral scarf. The colors are fall-ish and it pops nicely against the ivory sweater. Live and learn, right?
