I picked up this skirt on sale at Ann Taylor last weekend and couldn't wait to post about it. It's extremely lightweight, doesn't wrinkle easily, doesn't ride up when I’m walking and is easy to pair with a variety of colors. Above, I’m wearing it with a simple mint green long-sleeve tee. I wanted to keep the rest of my outfit understated to highlight the skirt. Typically with statement pieces, I like to down-play other elements of the outfit.

My one issue with this skirt is that it’s about an inch too short (so typical for me!). I would have preferred it to be at knee level rather than above the knee, but the price was right and the colors are gorgeous, so I couldn’t resist!

  1. How sweet a look!
    One can always rely on florals to remind us that it's spring or summer! : )

    check my post out at http://apopofpurple.wordpress.com/2012/07/01/ss-2012-challenge-16-skirt-the-issue/ on the statement skirt and let me know what you think.

    thanks
