A Two Skirt Kinda Day

Hello there.  Long time no see.  With a large work project finally off my back, I was anxious to get back to the blog.  Regardless of who reads it or doesn't read it, creating blog posts is therapeutic for me.  Therefore, today is a good day.  :)

This morning I was all set to wear this skirt.
In fact, I had it on and was ready to go, shoes and all.  That was until I stood in front of my bedroom window - a sunny bedroom window.  My husband walked in and said "Whoa, hello everything.  That skirt is totally see through!"  After a few seconds of unplanned groping, I changed my skirt.  I will be ordering a slip today.  Where does one even buy slips anymore?  Hmmm...

Being pushed for time and knowing it was a maxi day for me, I kept everything the same and decided upon the Water's Edge skirt.  Double layers of thick jersey, you are not seeing through this one.

I did have to choose between a clunky necklace and scarf though.  It was a bit cool out so I opted for the scarf.  Did I do ok?
skirt - Anthropologie Water's Edge maxi; tank - Victoria's Secret; sweater - Old Navy; scarf - Anthropologie; shoes - Enzo Angiolini wedge; necklace - Emma Stine (Groupon offer); toesies - OPI Passion for NY Fashion

Wow, I need a haircut BAD!
I felt super comfy all day if not just a tad boring.  Perhaps I should've been born in the 60s.  They totally had the best and most comfy clothes!

    Yes, I love it! The scarf is beautiful. I just bought my very first maxi skirt! I'm excited to wear it, but don't know exactly how to go about styling it. Thanks for the inspiration!

    I think I need some maxi stuff in my life, but I am so short, I'm not sure I could pull it off!

    I like the necklace, but think the scarf goes better with your outfit - the colors complement better!

    As for the slip thing, I just purchased a full slip from Anthro by Eloise. It's so pretty, though now I'm all like, now what do I do with this?!

    The scarf pulls the outfit together beautifully Katrina. I ordered that skirt and reviewed it on Anthro. Then I found a hole in it. By then, the Smalls were sold out. I just realized I could have called for a store search. Thumping self on head.
