I pulled out a winter white skirt. My trouble with this skirt is the fact that I either appear to be shipping off to sea, or that I am an acolyte of Nurse Ratchet when I attempt to wear this one.
However, I was going to make it work, so I wore:
I got a decent detail shot of the petals this time. (It is at the bottom of the post)
the Stuff-
Chiffon Petal Cardigan - Loft $28
Beaded Tank - Talbots $25
Skirt - Talbots $25
Tights - Kmart $6
Flats - Gretta via 6pm $10
Whats the problem with the skirt?
Looks fine on the hanger, but when worn it appears to have been patterned from a 1970's head nursing uniform.
Did my solution work?
Not sure. I sort of felt like I was cheating by paring it with all black.
Will it make another appearance?

Hahaha - I think I will wear this again, although maybe closer to summer next year.
That cardi is gorgeous! I love the black and white combo - so sharp!
ReplyDeletePretty details on the cardi and tank...and once again, I think you made this piece work well for you!
ReplyDeleteWinter white looks fabulous when done right and you did a fabulous job.
ReplyDeleteI love that cardigan and that little hint of white on the neckline! well done.
ReplyDeleteKyla - Thank you! This is one of my favorite cardis.
ReplyDeleteWatergirl - Thank you - I certainly tried this out!
God - Thank you - I do like this color a bunch - I am just never sure what to pair it with.:-)
Amanda - Thank you! :-)
Very nice! I like a good sharp black-and-white combo once in a while, especialy if it's not a combo you wear often.
ReplyDeleteI like this outfit. The white skirt looks seasonally appropriate combined with all black. I've seen a few women on the street in looks similar to this, and I've wished I had a slim white skirt so I could do this look too.
ReplyDeleteI like the skirt on you.And you can totlly rock it in spring.
