I'm always searching on Pinterest to help get my creative juices flowing. Pinterest has a plethora of style photos for whatever look you're trying to create. No matter your style or what pieces you're trying to put together, if you can search for it, there's probably a picture for it.
My inspiration initially came from a black pleated midi skirt I'd recently picked up from my local Target (via gift card from work.) I've been wanting a pleated midi skirt FOR. THE. LONGEST. But when you're on the hunt for something in particular, you never seem to find exactly what you're looking for. I finally scored my jackpot a couple weeks ago and have been waiting to find the right piece to wear with it. Initially I got a black lace camisole to go with it for a particular look I was aiming for (kind of like old school full slip look) which I still plan on wearing with it as well.
This time around, I decided to pair it with a tee shirt. At first, I was going to crop it, but I haven't gotten THAT bold with showing my stomach, yet (baby steps.) As I looked at the pictures in Pinterest I saw various cropped tees, knotted tees, etc. So I decided to knot it and show a little skin. I think I made a wise decision. Plus, since the tee only cost around $5, I can cut it up as much as I like.
Once I remembered I had some lipstick by NYX that would match my Fruit of the Loom tee perfectly, it was a on like popcorn from that point (lol!) I knew I wanted to wear heels with my outfit and these from Plato's Closet, along with my other accessories, tie all the loose ends together.
What do you think of this look? What would you have done differently, if anything? How do you feel about midi skirts? Let's chat it up in the comments section.
Until next time....
