WIW: Flared midi with "cropped" top

October 7, 2013

Thanks to Suz for demonstrating Angie's recent formula!

It sparked several possibilities in my mind, and this one won my husband's "favorite" vote.  So I wore it to church today.

Sorry for the strange pose - I was thinking "stand up tall and straight". 

And it was so chilly today ( barely 50, and even snowed a bit - after being nearly 90 two days ago - I love Nebraska weather) that I wore my Spiegel through most of the day.

Bonus one of the other combo I tried - in terribly low light.  My husband preferred the long skirt, but I think the short one is worth getting worn sometime too.

    Loving your take on Angie's formula in #1!  Is that a black V-neck sweater?  Did you fold it under to shorten it?

    Wow, with your height you really carry this look! I love it both with and without the jacket!

    Looks great Amy!

    Thanks!

    The top is a black v-neck batwing tee-shirt.  It has a banded bottom, that I pushed up a big to be above my hips.

    I got a lot of compliments on the outfit, and the skirt in particular (which I think is intended to be full length - it's a "petite").  And I thought it was too long for this with flats, so I wore heels with it.

    Looks good, I like the short skirt!

    Blushing to be a partial inspiration! I can see why you would get compliments on the skirt. I like the combination of elements -- a bit boho, a bit edgy with the jacket. 

    I think the shorter skirt version looks a bit more modern, but both work.

    Super cute. I especially like the outfit without the jacket. Well done, Amy.

    I second Angie, the outfit looks great sans the jacket! That skirt is feminine and pretty.
