If you live in Atlanta and attended the Shaky Knees Festival, you might have seen me wearing this outfit, dancing to the Lumineers in the rain. (with different shoes on, of course)
In my opinion, there is nothing more versatile than a full and flowing midi skirt, nothing more flattering!
Easy to wear, comfortable, flattering on all body types, feminine and flirty, but edgy when styled properly.....the midi skirt is the answer. It can be appropriate for all occasions and can be dressed up or down with the right accessories.
I found this dotted skirt while thrifting. When I am shopping for vintage I tend to stay away from tops and jackets and go for skirts and pants. Usually the fabrications are more natural, less synthetic and age better as a result. Full skirts in silk or wool always become forever favorites.
The painted tee was something I purchased in a dark bar during Nashville Fashion Week (sample sale, Amanda Valentine) The shoes were a last minute impulse by on my way out of town that same weekend, I could not resist the color. Both are things I have loved wearing all summer long.
