Scarves, Stripes, and Scallops | Outfit



I should have gotten a flu shot this year or the people at my husband's office should have gotten flu shots. Somebody needs to be getting there flu shots here. Every time I think I've finally kicked a cold, a new one comes barreling down the lane. Which, makes things like getting dressed and standing out in the cold not pleasant. Or maybe the standing out in the cold is contributing to the sickness. That's something to think about, I'm sure.



Anywhoooo...how cute is this skirt? I couldn't believe my luck when I found this on Target's website after mooning over a virtually identical ninety-five dollar one from Asos. Oh, the buttons! Oh, the scallops! It's all so good! Well...almost.

Those three middle buttons...they are not so good. They should not have made the middle buttons functional. The skirt is in no way too small but, when I move or sit the wrong way, pop go those three evil little buttons. You don't even need to undo those buttons to get the skirt on and off! Why aren't they just decorative!? Well, I'm going to show those little a-holes because I am going to sew those little buggers up! Ha! Serves them right. They will never unbutton in this town again.

  2. Love love love your skirt. Gah! <3 I've always wanted a skirt like that in brown or rust or navy. I just don't have the right figure for it. You, on the other hand, have that figure. <3 The cardigan contrasts nicely with the skirt, also!

    1. Aw, thank you. And I'm sure there's one out there for you. I obviously don't know exactly what it is about this kind of skirt that you feel like doesn't suit you but, every piece of clothing is cut a little differently and one is bound to work for you! I feel that exact way about rompers. But ONE DAY!!! She will be be mine...oh, yes...she will be mine.
