Full Skirts!!!

This blog is dedicated to all things I find beautiful and blissful, and, yes, for me that includes full skirts! There's nothing more beautiful than the look of a full skirt; it is so effortlessly striking yet classic and modern all at once.

Full skirts are quite the versatile piece to own in your wardrobe. You can wear them from day to night, work to play, intimate gathering or event to even a formal celebration.

I have been obsessed with full midi skirts ever since I can remember and for a while they were extremely hard to come by in any store by any designer at any price point. Now, any where you look, you can find a full skirt.  I've seen them everywhere from affordable retailers such as H&M and Forever21 to more moderately priced brands such as WhiteHouseBlackMarket and Banana Republic to even more expensive brands such as Tibi.  These skirts are everywhere.

If you want to wear a full skirt during the day, pair it with a tucked in fitted tee with or without a cardigan.  This gives it such a feminine look, but, you can also add a denim jacket or even a leather moto jacket to give the low some edge. You can even wear it with a tucked in button down shirt and layer a pullover sweater over it.  Tuck both the sweater and shirt and then belt it. Keep the collar of the button down over your sweater as well. This is a very appropriate look for work or even a morning/day time event.

You can always pair these types of skirts with cropped tops as well.  Just make sure that a crop is appropriate for the event you're attending.  Depending on your work environment, for example, maybe a crop isn't the best option.

As for shoes, I've seen this type of skirt paired with anything from a kitten heel to a stiletto and even a sneaker! Ultimately, style is your own personal thing so whatever your choice will be fabulous. I stand five feet tall so for me, it's always a stiletto, but, again, style is personal to each individual.

Some retailers that are definitely worth checking out are H&M,  Forever21,  WhiteHouseBlackMarket,  Banana Republic,  Express (Currently Express is also running a promotion through Monday, January 18, for $20 off every $80 that you spend.  The promo code for online is 1032 to be entered at checkout.), Zara (they are also running a major sale so you can score some amazing deals!!), ASOS, TopShop, and Tibi.
