Colorful Skirt for Fall

Top: Equipment // Skirt: J.Crew // Shoes: Charles David (similar) // Bag: Neiman Marcus (similar) // Sunnies: Karen Walker // Pearls: Tiffany and Co. 

A few months ago I shared this white lace skirt that I found on sale at J.Crew, and how I was able to easily pair it with my favorite Equipment blouse for summer. Since summer is over, and Labor day has passed, it is time to put away the white lace and find something better suited for fall. The sale section at J.Crew is one of my favorite places to shop, especially when they are running an additional discount. I came across this colorful skirt in the sale section at J.Crew, and knew it would be a great transition piece into fall. Normally I would not go for something this colorful, but since the skirts pattern is on top of a black background, I decided it was still suitable for fall and possibly winter. I also love the way the skirt fits perfectly at the waist, and has a zipper up the back (I am wearing a size 0). I also love the pockets that are hidden between the pleats, and the slight flare of the skirt. Since this skirt has almost an identical fit to the previous white lace skirt, I was able to pair it with the same Equipment blouse, pearls, and similar pumps. When the weather finally feels like fall in Dallas (or just gets below 80 degrees) this skirt would also pair well with a long sleeve silk blouse or a tight fitting turtle neck. Since the length of the skirt hits at about the knees, I recommend wearing pumps instead of flats to give length back to the legs. Shop the entire look below, and be sure to check out all of J.Crew’s sale items! xoxo
