I've kinda fallen in love with today's outfit. I have never wore this particular striped tee with this skirt before, but I'm really digging it (especially with the turquoise statement necklace to pull the whole look together). To add to the bohemian look I wore my hair up in a braided tuck updo.
Now, this skirt is rather old [in the fashion world] as I made it back in May of 2012 after seeing this style of skirt [and dresses] everywhere. But you know what, I still love it even if I wish that I had drafted the hi part of the skirt differently. If you want to make your very own hi-low skirt, check out my tutorial on how to make your very own.
Don't forget to go check out Lauren's post over at her blog! The above picture is a sneak peek to what you will see.

Hi Ashley,
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is really pretty, I love a good striped t-shirt- definitely an essential item! During Lent, when I had given up shopping as one of my fasts, I saw the most perfect striped top and I was sad not to buy it, but I guess I didn't need it!
Nice to meet you.x
Love both your outfits. I'm not brave enough to pattern mix, but I love it so much. I'm going to have to push myself to try to do it sometime...
ReplyDeleteI'd love to do a collaboration like this sometime with you, email me if you're interested!

Loving these photos Ashley! That nail color is beautiful...I used to have Tart Deco, but I went through the whole bottle. I just got Nails Inc. Marylebone High Street which is a very similar shade, though! :)
ReplyDeleteOh you are gorgeous :) I love your hair that way, too!

Hey! I just discovered your blog today, and I love it! Especially since I am a real fashionista as well. Just a question, I got taught that one of the first rules of fashion is to never mix florals and stripes. Maybe that's just me, as I can see that you like it.
ReplyDeleteMixing florals and stripes aren't a no-no in fashion anymore, especially when done properly. I have many examples of me mixing all sorts of patterns on my blog here.
DeleteLove it
