{Statement Skirts}

Tweet

Red is the colour of the day - the bright coral colour of these flowers and skirt really lifted my mood. I bought this tulip skirt when Zara first opened in Sydney (...how time flies!) in 2011 and it really gives the right volume for a fun and polished look. As a bonus, it matches the colour of my new car (which snuck in the background of the above photo). I love driving (just not the parking part) and can't wait go on road trips in it - it makes me feel so free and independent!

I am off to have a (hopefully) relaxing weekend, after the craziness of exams and work - hope you all have a fantastic one too!

What do you think of A-line and tulip skirts?

I love the playfulness of polka dots and could not resist the bold black dots on this skirt (and only for $20 as well). Pairing it with a tweed jacket (my first one!) really adds a touch of elegance to the outfit. I bought this jacket after reading reviews from extra petite. The colour and cropped cut of this jacket makes it so versatile and perfect for my petite frame - can't wait to pair it with other things from my wardrobe. I am also loving coral at the moment, and think the wedges and necklace are a great way to add pops of colour to an outfit.

Thanks so much for reading!
