A Pretty Red Skirt

I'm not one for "Pretty" clothes, but every now and then I enjoy putting on a old-fashioned midi skirt and heels and feeling "Pretty".  This is an outfit I wore on an afternoon date with my husband.  I first wore it out to breakfast and church, then we went on a stroll along the Eau Claire River Walk.  I plan on doing a travel post on that soon because it has been recently completed and it is absolutely gorgeous!

My skirt is new this season, it is from CJBanks.   I bought it at the same time I purchased my blue chambray skirt HERE, and yes, this one is also a tad too big, but I think it will be an easy fix.  I just have to open up the elastic waist and make it tighter.

It is an absolutely gorgeous skirt.  I love the color!  It has an beautiful embossed and eyelet detail in the hemline that is hard to see in the photos.

I purchased this skirt for only $14.99 when CJBanks was having a huge sale.  If you think you'd like to shop at CJBanks but they are a bit on the high side for you, sign up for their emails.  They have regular sales and clearance prices that are absolutely amazing!  I wouldn't be able to buy anything there if it wasn't for their sales!

I wore my skirt with a white eyelet top from JCPenney (old) to coordinate with the eyelet in the hem of the skirt.  I added a sun hat (old, JCP) and white sunglasses (old, JCP) because we were outside walking in the sun.  

My sling back wedge sandals are super old, and super comfortable.  I was able to wear them for most of the day, but I did bring a pair of sneakers to change into in case they started to get uncomfortable.  See that look below.

My striped bag from CJBanks (no longer available) went perfectly with my outfit.  I wore a white seeded bracelet on my wrist (old).

And here is the look with sneakers for those of you who are interested.  They are my nude Adidas NEO Courtset Sneakers I bought for my Myrtle Beach Vacation I took in the spring.  Love these sneakers!

We had such a great day!  I can't wait to tell you more about it.  It's amazing how much fun you can have in your own hometown!

Have a Great Day!  Amy
