Do you ever purchase special items and then "save" them for the perfect (or at least a good) occasion to wear them? This skirt was one of those pieces for me. I bought it on super sale and it's by one of my favorite designers (Carven). New York fashion week seemed like the perfect place to debut it and I wore it with one of my favorite Family Affairs blouses on a day I was visiting Nina's studio. It was the perfect mix of comfort and practicality for running between shows at Lincoln Center and studio visits in Brooklyn, but the pieces still felt very special to me.

Welcome to my little blog that blends a bit of nature, fashion, wanderings, and books in this dusty corner of the Internet. I hope you find it a moment of quiet in the wild today.
lovely print on the skirt!
ReplyDeleteThat skirt is truly lovely! I love unique pieces like this.
ReplyDeleteWow, this is truly one of my favorite outfits I've ever seen in your blog. The skirt is really lovely & I love how do you wear it. I think it could also look really well with a vest over. I've saved some clothes for special moments too, some garments are too unique to wear in any occasion.
ReplyDeletePerfect skirt and you are right, the perfect debut for it!
ReplyDeleteLove everything about this outfit. That skirt is superb.

ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty skirt, I too have some items I save for what I think is a special occasion. Once I have worn it once or twice it suddenly becomes part of my weekly outfits...I am not sure if that is good or bad !
ReplyDeleteYou look stunning, the skirt is amazing! And your hair is so cute!

Beautiful! Both pieces are lovely. <3
ReplyDeleteI am saving some very pretty clothes for - well, not a special occasion, but I am saving them to wear with a "perfect" pairing and at a really nice place to get pictures. :) But I have saved clothes for a special occasion, before, too. ;-D
Cute outfit! I'm really jelly of your bag, I need to get me one like that. Amazing photos as always, Nice post!

ReplyDeleteYou are so cute :)
ReplyDeleteAdore the new haircut! So very modern and chic. And for a good cause, as well -- bravo!
ReplyDeleteexcellent skirt! QT
ReplyDeleteI agree with everyone else that came before me....great skirt ;) I found a similar white Carven skirt I'm going to feature later, but it's just not as good because it doesn't have the stunning pattern. Great outfit all around.
ReplyDeletegorgeous skirt!
