I received a 40% off coupon in the mail for H&M and ya'll know I'm a sucker for coupons, so of course I had to use it! I must admit though, I had to look long and hard before I found anything I wanted to use it on. I finally found this cute palm print skirt, and after the coupon was deducted it cost only $14.99!
My favorite piece to wear in the hot summer months is a short skirt. I don't know at what age I'll ever be able to give them up. I just love the comfort, and I think short skirts look better on my frame than midi skirts.
What sold me on this skirt was the beautiful neutral palm print and the built-in elastic belt. It is extremely comfortable, and the material is very light weight and didn't wrinkle when I wore it!
I carried a brown saddle bag that my daughter gave me to accent the brown tones in the skirt. I wore a gold bracelet on my wrist and a black and gold necklace around my neck.
I chose black wedge sandals that I picked up on clearance at JCP a few years ago.
I paired my skirt with a simple black Worthington Tee Shirt from JCPenney.
It was a very hot weekend, in the nineties , and I wore this outfit to church and out to lunch.
The nice thing about elastic waist skirts is you can pull them up or down for whatever length you desire. I chose to wear my skirt higher up on my waist to camouflage my tummy and accentuate the smallest part of my waist. But if you don't have tummy issues, and you are more concerned about your legs, you can wear the skirt lower on your hips.
Have a Great Day! Amy

DeleteMy computer is playing games with my head. I can't find my comments once I've published them so if this is a double, my apologies. I was just saying how much I like this outfit. Initially, I'm drawn to your necklace and handbag - so cute - and then to the overall look. This is such a great summer outfit! Thank you for linking up to the Thursday Moda! What a treat it is to chat with so many ladies.
