Floaty Maxi Skirts: Perfect For Summer

Floaty Maxi Skirts: Perfect For Summer. Hello friends, so how are you today?

Also, I have a thing for long floaty pleated skirts. Especially in Summer. They keep you warm when it is windy and cool in the sunshine.

I bought this skirt a few weeks ago with some of my birthday money. Talking of birthday money, I can not believe I haven’t spent the rest of it yet!

So, I think I need to go shopping before it burns a hole in my pocket!

Trouble is I have gained a few pounds since then so I have to lose weight before I will be wearing it again!!

I teamed it up with a black long sleeve top as we were having an evening walk out for my birthday meal and I did not want to take a jacket with me.

Also wore these sweet black and silver flat shoes as they were perfect for walking a few miles into town and back.

Floaty Maxi Skirts: Perfect For Summer. Stripy skirts are a fun clothing choice, whether you’re dressing up for a formal event or just adding some colour to your regular wardrobe.

Just pair it with a shirt, t-shirt or jumper that is plainly coloured. Also, adding a bold belt, a statement necklace, or a pair of earrings can add flair and uniqueness to your look.

An essential styling tip for a colourful pleated skirt is to emphasise contrast. Wear your skirt with a shirt that matches the shade of your skirt for a striking combination.

The way I handled a black t-shirt.

Select the colour of the skirt that you find most appealing and stick with it. Additionally, try playing around with all the other colours.

A simple top functions flawlessly.

So what was the last item of clothing, accessories or footwear did you treat yourself to?

Do you own the same style item in different sizes or colours?

When I left school I worked in a shoe shop, surprise, surprise I love shoes!

On pay day I love these leather sandals so much I bought them in 3 different colours. Black, tan and white. They were so stylish and comfy and when they wore out, I bought the same ones again.

AND AGAIN!!

What am I like?

Would you do something like this? Please tell me I am not the only one who does things like this?

Hehe.. I can’t be!?

    That is a really pretty skirt and I really love the whole look- classic, cool, chic! The last thing I bought (BAD!) was about an hour ago- I nipped into town to get some cream for my horrid gnat bites and popped into Topshop where I bought a few brooch sets from their reduced Freedom at Topshop range that were Buy one get one free!
