It has been a manic two weeks. Work, Sweden, friends, work, house hunting, work. You get it.
I am back though and getting used to the cool evenings and even cooler mornings. That being said the weather is still just right for some skirts. Here are some perfects skirts to wear now.
The time has come to work midi skirts into my work wardrobe. The question about styling them for work is what has kept me from wearing the few that have already made their way into my closet. While the midi pencil skirts are a no brainer, in terms of styling, how do you take the full midi skirts and make them look professional rather than sock hop ready?
Instead of pairing a full skirt with a button down and tucking it in I prefer a simple sweater, like the J. Crew tippi, and an edgier shoe, like this. Or, I would wear a full skirt with a slightly more relaxed top (like the Club Monaco look above), like this J. Crew cropped sweater, and pair it with a classic pump to keep the look work and client ready.
Would love to see how you pair yours!

Continuing with the theme of Valentine's Day I thought I would make a confession of love.
I am in LOVE with & Other Stories
So now that we got that out of the way.... Are you surprised that the store is part of the H&M Group? After all the Swedes seem unable to do wrong. Sadly, & Other Stories is only available, currently, in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and the UK.
Here are some things that I LOVE right now. If you have not checked them out though, seriously visit www.stories.com and get ready for some major butterflies.
