Cobalt and Gray

Modcloth; Necklace: Claire's; Sunnies: H&M

I don't think I've mentioned this when I've worn this skirt previously, but  it is several years old and was once ankle length.  The skirt also had a front slit and came with a huge safety pin fastened to the front (in my defense it purchased in the late 90's!).  It has survived a few moves and several closet purges mainly because I got it hemmed.  It's amazing how doing something as simple as cutting several inches off a skirt can give it a new look and a lot of 'remix' potential.

  4. Ahhh I love your hair! That skirt looks so good. I always intend to have things altered, but I usually forget or just keep putting it off.
