While flipping though some old magazines this week, I came across this photo from Marie Claire in March 2009 that I instantly was drawn to a second time. Bright full skirt, graphic tee, pop of pattern, a red lip, and baubles. This could easily be my early fall uniform.
I often shy away from full skirts because I think they look best with heels, and let’s be honest, how often do I actually wear those? But a full skirt is just so ladylike and these below are such eye candy. I love the idea of pairing them with a tee and structured blazer or cropped suede jacket. And the gold sequined one? I die. Can you pick a favorite?

I actually had this problem this morning when I was getting ready. My internal conversation went something like this – “Oh, a full skirt, let’s wear that…oh, but I don’t want to wear heels. It’s August and my boss is on vacation. But I want to wear a full skirt. but do I have to wear heels. SIIIIIGH.” I loooove the gold sequined one!!
I sort of agree- I think they do look best with heels, which I actually NEVER wear. But I lovee the look of a full skirt. So classy.
