Challenge Accepted

IMG_8891

The last time I wore this skirt, I rocked it with a backwards cardi and pastels. Someone had commented that they loved that styling so much, they couldn’t imagine how else I could wear the skirt. So, in the words of Barney Stinson - challenge accepted

To be honest- at first, I agreed. I did have a hard time styling this skirt, and I was pretty impressed with myself for that particular combination, so I was a little at a loss as to which direction to go next. But then I somehow put this combo together. And I thought it was pretty awesome. True story. (ok, I’ll stop with the Barney quotes now).

Crane Beach

If you follow along with me on Instagram (lets be friends- my username is hollyjollydolly), you may have saw that Boo and I spent this past monday at the beach. April 16th - at the beach. Isn’t that amazing? It seemed so early. But since Boo had the day off, and the temperature reached near 90 degrees, we couldn’t resist. I can’t waaaaaait for more of these days this summer :)

EBEW : Pastel

IMG_4825

Theres not much pastel in my closet. Just a few items here and there. So as much as I would’ve loved to wear a head to toe pastel outfit for this month’s EBEW, this will have to do instead.

Which isn’t a bad thing, because I happen to really really really (like, really) love this outfit. For as much as I love this skirt, I don’t wear it nearly enough as I’d like. I don’t know why. It is one of the items I got during my internship a few years ago. A designer sample sale is awesome, but an employee discount at a designer sample sale? Absolute heaven. 

Don’t forget to check out how everyone else is wearing there pastels today for EBEW!
