Long and Sheer













(Forever 21 sweater, Yaya skirt, BCBG boots, Bally Bag, Urban Revisions glass ring/F21 rings)

On a day full of castings, I am usually one to stick with a great pair of skinny jeans. They show your body, are simple, normally requested by the brand, etc etc. But being completely bored with my usual minimalism, I opted for something a little different today. I scored this beautiful maxi skirt at Urban Outfitters and am completely in love with it's long flowing back and sheer fabric. It is something I see myself wearing to an event or barefoot at the beach. Today I went with a great pair of ground stomping boots and a knitted sweater. It was such a beautiful day...definitely worth getting a little dressed up for.

This outfit is so sweet :O

I love the drape and form of the skirt. (Though I definitely do not have the legs for it.) You pull it off nicely though. And the boots are badass.

absolutely gorgeous! love the unique twist on the maxi skirt, so stunning. saw one similar recently and fell in love but this one is even better! perfect with the sweater. and you're like me- instead of pairing it with flats or heels you went with the boots- good choice :)

Love this look, Like the contrast between knit and sheer fabrics :)

Absolutely Mrs. K said...

How can big boots look that elegant and fashionable. I don’t know but you did it. The boots and that delicate skirts looks as if they are made for each other. I’m not a fan of skirt with different lengths (probably because I am to tiny), but is sure looks fabulous on you. the knitted sweater looks great: the color and the texture are not too heavy so it looks very subtle. Of course, you can never go wrong with a big black bag.
