All Tied Up

Sometimes I throw on mix-match sweats and t-shirts when I'm out and about running errands and sometimes I like to look presentable. With a trip to the salon on my calendar for yesterday, I decided to put on makeup for the first time in days and put in a little effort. This maxi skirt from Ann Taylor is the perfect summer shade and the perfect fabric for comfort. I paired the maxi skirt with one of my five identical J.Crew white v-necks. However, the knot changes it up a little bit. Since the skirt is high-waisted, putting the shirt up in a knot worked out perfectly. To add another pop of collar, I threw on this J.Crew necklace. I kept the shoes neutral (plus glitter, of course). These sandals are from Target. 

Maxi Skirt: Must Have

I LOVE this olive green maxi skirt. Not like how I love my favorite lotion or my favorite blanket...more like how I love my iPhone (mega mega). I found this skirt at H&M and it's the most comfortable purchase I've made in a minute. Paired with a plain white J.Crew v-neck and some fun safari-esqe shoes and accessories and you've got yourself an outfit. Talk about comfort!

Max Out Your Maxi

A fabulous $17.95 army green maxi skirt purchase this weekend brought on flashes of outfit possibilities. But, as always, my first thought is always "How can I make this piece appropriate for work?" So...that's what I've done here...made a maxi skirt work-friendly. I've matched the skirt with staple pieces most gals have in their closet: basic white button up, platform wedges and a bold necklace. Since you are going solids on top and bottom, spicing up your look with bold jewelry is an absolute must.
