Wardrobe All-Star: A-Line Black Skirt

January 31, 2017

I long-time love for wearing various types of skirts.  I particularly love A-line skirts.  I wear one at least once a week. Having skirts in a variety of colors is certainly awesome, but you can get a lot of mileage out of a black skirt during all seasons. Here’s some style inspiration from the archives of my favorite fit and flare black skirt.

Black and White Simplicity

May 18, 2015

Black + White Simplicity 1

Skirt: Nordstrom | Top: Marshalls | Shoes: Shoemint | Wrap: The Wrap Life | Bag: Philly accessories store, now closed | Sunnies: F21

Long time no blog!  I didn’t mean to take such an extended hiatus, but blog hosting woes, a demanding new job, and settling into my new place in DC really took my energy and attention for the past several weeks. But I wasn’t ready to throw in the towel on my blog as much as my blogging woes made me consider it.

On another note: Do you wanna know my weekend trick for getting out of the door fast?  I stick to basic separates and forgo styling my hair by rocking a head wrap (or hat).  I forgo my makeup routine by wearing sunnies and red lipstick. Spring weather makes simple styling like this easier because I don’t need several layers to stay warm.  Do you have any weekend styling tricks?

Farewell November, Hello December! Hope you had a nice weekend (and if it was a long one for you that you enjoyed the extra days off!).  I commend you if you’ve already started your holiday preparation and shopping already.  All I’ve done is a lot of online window shopping and Googling for Christmas cookie recipes…But I’ll definitely make up for that for the remainder of the week.  Do you have a favorite Christmas cookie recipe?  I’m still searching for inspiration.

Hat: American Apparel (similar hat) | Sweater: H&M (similar sweater and another similar sweater) | Skirt: Nordstrom | Boots: thrifted | Bag: H&M | Sunglasses: H&M

Happy Monday!  Hats like this one are simply not practical for my typical weekdays. But I really enjoy wearing them on weekends.  Do you ever wear any specific accessories on weekends only?
