Styling a Folk Print Skirt

-

Now that the weather is finally starting to warm up, I've been making an effort to wear some of my favourite skirts that have been hidden away for a few months. I bought this gorgeous skirt at a quirky and cool shop in Osaka, Japan. The shop had a mix of new and pre-loved clothing and accessories.  This skirt was a one-of with no tags, so I'm assuming it was pre-loved!  It is such a beautiful skirt in great condition and is fully lined.  I love the style and colours of this skirt and it's folk print.  It's also very comfortable to wear and doesn't crease after wearing it all day, which is another bonus!

 In this outfit I decided to go with a black top as a base and added a red cardi to complete the look.  I knew that my recently purchased bag with the embroidered strap would complement the boho/folksy print of the skirt.  I love this bag!  It was a great buy, which is even better!

 The outfit: 
Top: Sussan
Cardi: Millers
Skirt: bought in Japan (thrifted)
Shoes: Rivers

Bangle: present from Mum
Ring: Lovisa
Bag: Rockmans

Necklace: Big W

    This skirt is a very versatile addition to your wardrobe. The red cardi goes really well with the first outfit and I also love the strap on the bag. I hope Amber is enjoying her vacation. Flossie xx

    Love this unique skirt and the strap of your bag is perfect with it! The red is a nice pop of color.

    I adore that folk print skirt and I love the way you styled it. It's your best version yet. I think it looks much better on you styled with a shorter top like you did here, as it really elongates your figure and makes you look slimmer. Love the necklace too! But: no Amber? xxx

    What a beautiful skirt! This is your best styling so far - the cropped/tucked in black shirt helps put the waist higher and makes your legs look longer. The red cardi is perfect! Awesome.

    But yes, I echo Ann's question? where is Amber?

Hi Blog Friends!  How are you?  I hope you're happy and healthy.  It really is a weird state of limbo at the moment, isn't it?  On the one hand, the schools are open, so life almost feels like things are returning to normal, but on the other hand, my work hasn't re-opened yet due to covid-19 health concerns!  There are some businesses and members of the public that seem to be enacting strict social distancing practices and others seem not to care at all!  It is such a confusing time!  At least during these unstable times, there is always fashion!  Being creative and wearing bright and colourful outfits, adds joy to my day.  It is something that we have control over and something that can bring us comfort in a weary world.   Red has been the colour I've worn quite a lot of recently.  Red symbolizes strength, determination, passion and love.  It is the perfect colour for these times!  Here are two red outfits I've worn very recently.  Hope you love them!💓💓 Outfit 1:

Hi Blog Mates!  I have missed you!  September has been a completely frantic and chaotic month, which unfortunately has meant my blog has had to take a back seat lately.  I apologise for being so behind with my comments on your blogs too!  I asked Amber to do that for me, but she said she was too busy sleeping and being beautiful!😹 Anyway, on to the outfits!  I had planned on spreading out the below outfits across a few different posts, but now that the end of the month has come, I thought I'd put them together into one eclectic mix of colours and styles!   Outfit 1: Top: Kmart Pants: Rockmans Shoes: Rivers Necklace: Millers Mum bought me this gorgeous bangle in the UK last year and a few weeks ago I found earrings that match perfectly at my local Lovisa store! Yay!  Ring: Diva Bag: Reaction by Kenneth Cole Outfit 2: Top: H&M Skirt: Big W Shoes: Habana Carmine Chocolaticas by HCD Necklace: thrifted Ring: Diva Bag: bought i
