The Flowers Go Marching 2 by 2


Wearing: Anthropologie Top, Vintage Belt, H & M Skirt, Seychelles Wedges

In an effort to make my daily wear more print ready, I have been trying to layer and wear things together that I've never worn before. Particularly in playing with patterns. I was surprised to find how much I loved this floral/firework combination.
And.. Sidenote!
So, this skirt was on clearance but it was a size 6 and I'm normally a size 0. I couldn't pass it up for ten dollars, but to this day every time I wear it, the fit irritates me ( particularly that it won't stay at my waist). My new goal to try and stop shopping so much is to only buy pieces that truly fit me incredibly. It may just be a theory and won't work in real life, but might as well give it a shot!

    atleast the belt covers the hugeness of the skirt.
    it looks good with the shirt tucked in

    I love the mix of prints! I really need to do this more often. And I'm also guilty of buying clothes that don't fit properly.
