Wardrobe Newbies: Long Layers

 New:  Brown boots, skirt, dark gray purse
The skirt has a grayish olive color in it so I wore my olive cardigan, a gray scarf, and carried my new gray purse.
I like the fact that the skirt has colors of olive, gray, navy, cream, buttery yellow, cognac, and burgundy.  I plan on styling it with several different top pieces I already own to create many new outfits.


Skirt $4.40 Sag Harbor
Olive V-Neck Tee $2.58 Forever 21
Long Olive Cardigan w/Pockets $1.29 Mossimo
Bracelets
Gold Necklace $3.50
Gray Scarf $2.99 Fairfax
Gray Purse $5.94 Alfred Dunner
Brown Ankle Boots $6.99 Forever (T.J. Maxx)

Teal and Gold

My second way I've chosen to wear this versatile maxi skirt is once again with a cardigan, but with teal and gold accents. 



 My new teal and gold necklace worked perfectly with the print top.  Can't really see it here, but the top has a gold thread running throught the pattern.
This jumbo bracelet (for only $1) is going to get worn a lot.

OOTD: Boots + Denim





I was soooo disappointed.  I loved these ankle boots so much, but a few hours into wearing them for the first time my shins began to ache.  The top edge of the boot banged against my shin when I walked leaving a bruised feeling.  If I wore them with long pants and had on thick socks that came up above the top of the boot it might give enough cushion to resolve the issue.  I was looking forward to being able to wear them with the shorter pants like these though.  I may have to save that look for shorter outings...not an all day work boot I'm afraid....unless the long pant/sock cushion attempt works.
