I never get tired of the big, fat midi skirt, as popularized by the 50's Housewife.
My
outfit probably wouldn't look out of place in that era (it's even
topped off with a vintage brooch that wouldn't surprise me if it had
lived through the 50's as well). I did my hair in a low bun garnished
with a period favorite – pearls. But I've let the modern times have
their say in the form of the lace shoulders on my top and my extravagant
platform sandals.
As you know, I'm a big fan
of repeating a motif throughout an outfit, so I was really delighted
when I noticed that the blue brooch (which I had originally picked for
its similar color to the skirt) was practically an identical 3-D version
of the flowers. Originally, I had also planned to go with neutral beige
shoes, but then I realized that I could create a color flow by wearing
green shoes, a blue and green skirt above that, and then the blue pin
all the way at the top.
