Wild Thing




What I Wore

TShirt - WalMart/Cardigan - (Thrifted)/Skirt - (Thrifted)
Shooties - (Thrifted)/Watch - MK/Necklace and Bracelet - Gift/Earrings - Local Boutique


Skirts.  For some females, wearing a dress/skirt is an everyday occurrence.  There were years that I was one of those people who wore a two piece suit to work everyday, and those suits involved skirts.  Five days a week, fifty weeks a year, I wore a suit to work.  Maybe after all those hundreds of days of skirts, it was inevitable that I would become a pants wearing person.  I recently realized that I could count on one hand the number of times I had worn a skirt last year.  As a result, I decided I need to make a concerted effort to wear more dresses and skirts, and that at least one day a month I will be putting on a skirt.  Now, I am not limiting myself to only once a month, but even if I do that, this time next year I won't be able to count on one hand (or even two hands) how many times I had a skirt on in a year!  What about you, do you wear skirts a lot, or do you tend to wear skirts for special occasions?

  6. I love skirts and dresses, but haven't been wearing them enough, myself lately. I've been trying to make more of an effort to get dressed. For real, not in yoga pants! And color. I need more color!

    Second I can't wait to see your fashions. We are moving to Ashland from Texas at the end of the Summer (going to nursing school) and I am looking forward to seeing your winter wear choices. It never gets really cold here.

  14. I have just gone through all your posts from this year, and wanted to let you know I think this is your best outfit! Skirts and boots really suit you. And so does your smile - it makes you look ten years younger! I think white, black and hot pink are your most flattering colours, and I think you should always wear black tights and black shoes for the flattering line they give to your legs. :D

  15. Oh my, you are just like me. The only times I wore a dress or skirt in 2012 was to a wedding, a couple of Christenings, and a couple of nights out! The rest of the time I live in jeans, and occasionally leggings. I just don't feel relaxed in dresses, they fell "dressed up" and I am very much a casual gal, but maybe once Spring is here I will follow your lead and try the once a month thing. Funnily enough my very first blog (three weeks ago) involved my newest clothing buy, an animal print skirt lol
    I'm happy I found your blog on last weeks blog hop, I was just browsing a few today to try and find a couple of new ones to follow and maybe get some followers for my blog as it's only three weeks old.

  16. Your outfit looks fabulous. I love the pop of the pink top. I am trying to wear more skirts as well. I've always worn trousers - mostly jeans - as my 'mom uniform' and only worn skirts to dress up, but now I'm working towards more of a balance :) Thank you for sharing this post with the Gallery of Favorites.
