OOTD - If all your friends jumped off a bridge

Or in this case, bought the Peppered and Striped Skirt....

In the eleventh hour, I decided I had to see for myself what all the hype was about this skirt. I still wouldn't say it's a piece that makes me want to squeal and turn a cartwheel, but it is cute. And polka dotted. And surprisingly warm. It stays!

Today we are heading to Sawyer's first tennis lesson and then to a birthday party for his best preschool buddy. After spending much of the week in jeans, I decided a skirt was in order to kick off the weekend - Happy Friday!

I don't think I have seen anyone not make a cute outfit out of this skirt. Looks great on you as well! :)

Debbie, that is so funny, because in my blog reader, your posts are right on top of each other! Great, Fashionable minds think alike, right?

Jan, you look ADORABLE in it. I wasn't a huge fan of the peppered and striped, but you look so cute in it and it's not too long. So, I guess now I have to wear the Easy Keeper for you, huh? I want this now! *sigh*...Why are all my friends jumping off bridges too?

I must be the only person the skirt looked bad on :(
The length, colors, everything look good one you! I've seen skirt paired with so many color tops but rarely gold/yellow and it's just perfect!

Lisa said...

Love how you styled it! :)

hahaha...I had to laugh at that title because isn't that so true? If I see one of my blogger friends in something cute it's SOOOO tempting to jump on the bandwagon and go get it too! That's what good blogger friends do...they enable, right! =)
You look positively adorable in this outfit...I love the yellow top with the navy cardigan...great styling girlie! Hope you had a good day with all that running around you had to do!

This outfit is lovely. The navy really works so well with the other colors in the outfit. I never found this skirt in my size, but I have a skirt I'm planning to repurpose into my version of the peppered and striped. And then I'll have to replicate all the cute outfits I've been seeing. Can't wait!

BTW, your hair looks especially gorgeous here. I am so jealous of your highlights. And your curls. And the length. And the shine. I'm so green with envy I"m starting to look like Kermit the Frog. Just kidding -- sort of!
