I've been attracted to a longer skirt lately and when I received this one for Christmas from Austin's mum I couldn't wait to start styling it. It has the most amazing twirl factor and trumpet cut in the chicest floral 70's pattern. It was her favorite piece and I'm so glad I get to give it new life. I've been feeling particularly playful with my dressing lately, so this whimsical crochet top and green belt seemed to work with my mood. After dealing with an unfortunate flat tire, I drove out to see our friend Sean today who's been working on his own home photo studio and we played with some outfit shots that I'll bring you throughout the week. For this shot, we went to a nearby park and checked out the duck pond.
