I love buying new things. However, with a tight budget, I know that I have to buy pieces that I will LOVE a long time and will wear consistently. While I usually buy a piece with a specific look in mind, playing in my closet to find another way to wear the piece is essential.
I bought this beautiful J. Crew skirt on sale (which it still is!). I’ve wanted it for a while and finally took the plunge! I’ve styled the skirt 4 ways with things almost EVERY woman has in her closet. Which way is your favorite?
This outfit was the original ‘look’ that I thought about. A plain long sleeve fitted black shirt and a pair of black heels.
What else does almost every woman own? A chambray shirt! I got this one over 10 years ago! I’m a little embarrassed to admit that, but at the same time, kind of proud! I also put these sparkly Steve Madden shoes with it! Tying it like this gave me the tucked waist that I wanted since this is a flowy skirt.
What a great way to wear this skirt that I bought in the dead of winter in the summer or spring! A strapy sandle or heel and a black tank. I wouldn’t have put this together until I started playing in my closet.
While shopping at J.Crew, I also picked up this beautiful sweater (which is one sale now)! But putting this skirt with any brightly colored sweater would be great. This would be great for a chilly spring day. I was lucky enough to find these gold shoes at Marshall’s about 4 years ago and they look so awesome with this outfit. However, any gold flat would work.
So, what do you think? Are you going to be picking up this skirt? Which outfit is your favorite?
