Chambray shirt via TJ Maxx // Nasty Gal Necklace // Vince Espadrilles via TJ Maxx
You probably wouldn't know, but fitted bottoms aren't really my thing. Like they make me super uncomfortable because a) I like to eat my carbs and b) not a fan of showing my tush off. But when I found this Free People skirt on the sales rack at Bloomies I gave it try. I mean what's the harm in going out of my comfort zone for a Free People skirt that's now $30? And you can take a guess as to what happened. It was the best idea. The knot detail creates some very strategic ruching to let me eat all the carbs I want=SOLD! Plus, it's a black skirt that I can see working in the Fall with booties and this moto jacket.
Here are some great fitted skirts that are carb friendly:
I love the simplicity of this, and the chicness. Your black skirt looks so fantastic on you.

Simple yet stylish. I love how you've styled the chambray skirt by knotting it at the front. You look great!
ReplyDeleteLove how you styled this, especially with the pop of color in your bag!

Loving the chambray, black, and red combo! Such a great transitional outfit from summer to fall!
ReplyDeleteI really love the knot on the skirt! It's fun and jazzes up a regular black skirt! I'm glad you took a chance and went for it!

1. Those espadrilles are still my fav 2. Love the draping on this skirt. It's totally something I have been looking for. 3. You look awesome in a fitted bottom, but I totally get it. I prefer to wear looser things too. 4. Love how you have taken basic up to such a great level.
