How Do I Wear… A Floral Skirt?


I go on Polyvore excessively and I constantly see questions that involve items that are similar to ones that I already own, like a floral skirt, so I've decided to address these questions in a segment that I like to call "How Do I Wear…?". So let's get started!
My skirt is a really beautiful thrift store find in an abstract floral print. I decided to do four looks, one for spring, one for summer, one for fall, and one for winter. Let's start with the spring one, since spring is coming up soon.
Et voilà! I just took my skirt, added a white tee, layered a denim vest over that, and added some adorable loafers (they're new!). I am so excited to leave the house without tights, it is not even funny. I felt a nice cool breeze… LOL...
Look at how freezing happy I look! (I'm probably clenching my fists because I need gloves. Sigh…)
Let's just take a moment of appreciation for these loverly shoes before we move onto my summer look
Okay, let's move on!
And bam! We took the same skirt, took off the denim vest, swapped the white tee for a pink tank, and changed the shoes from loafers to some strappy blue sandals. For some people, it's hard to wear a lot of color at once, but it's a fun look if you've got the confidence to pull it off.
Spacing out...

I call this pose "look at how cool I am pretending to be a DJ!" Kinda like this.

Check out how relieved I look to be back in my tights. This look would be perfect for school. If you're not into the whole blazer thing (I am…), you could layer a denim jacket instead. I picked up this fabulous blazer when I was on my shopping trip at the Poughkeepsie Mall. It is so beautiful.


If I took myself seriously, I wouldn't have included these last two pics. But I don't, so I will.

And finally, a winter appropriate look. This is hard because floral skirts are commonly associated with summer-wear, but I managed it. Adding a chunky knit, a cute gold pin, and some ankle booties really winter-ifies it.
Well, this is my last look, so I hope this inspires people to go out and buy a floral skirt of their own. It's a very versatile item that can be worn with many different things and found at many different prices. I hope you all enjoyed! More posts coming soon, I promise. Until then, stay fabulous!
