Someone told me I looked "sharp" today - a complete stranger!
Many of my colleagues admired the skirt.
I think I could wear pretty much everything with it, from a t-shirt to Doc Martens.
What would you wear?
I adored the humongous pockets, and it was easy to wear for work (the back did not wrinkle!).
I did find it was clingy on my nylons, as it's lined with the same fabric. That tells me it will not be in my fall/winter wardrobe - I don't want any Cling Rage developing.
My outerwear was a mere wisp of a scarf.
Protecting my chest from the sun.
The stuff:
My brain...I put it all away as soon as I finished this pic - oops!

I love these shoes. So snaky!
I knew that skirt would look fabulous on, your colleagues were right. I can imagine it looking cool with a short, boxy top and some bad ass chunky Gladiators (that's the sandals, not Russell Crowe!) Liking Vizzini's suggestion of wearing green with it, cats have a sixth sense about these things.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, cling rage, I hate that! xxx
That skirt looks fantastic on you, Sheila, and I love how you combined it with the snaky top and shoes. But no snaky bling? xxx
ReplyDeleteAh the billowy skirt, how about a graphic tee with it and, as Vix suggested, gladiator sandals, and your stash of red jewelry including big earrings. If there is a secret (that truly works) to dealing with static cling please share! And yippee for not needing outer wear!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Laurie
That skirt looks splendid! I couldn't wear it as I have no waist - but you do have one, and it works so well. (So, thinking about it - if I could wear it, I'd pair it with anything with a trim waist.) I love the bold colour with the snake print.
ReplyDeleteI’d wear it with a waist-length jacket or top to avoid the width across the hips in back.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, the skirt looks brilliant and the slinky snake goes super well with it!x
ReplyDeleteAnd again a fantastic skirt, just visited your VW skirt post. And a fabulous top. Diane von Furstenberg tops always look elegant and super feminine.
