During the Great Closet Clean-out of Summer 2008, there was only one item that I couldn't part with -- a black/cream plaid ATL skirt that has been my favorite skirt for years. When I worked in an office, it was my go-to skirt for days that I really wanted to feel good about my outfit.

Fortunately I was able to have it taken in so that it fits again -- and has a new life as part of a YLF-inspired outfit. I don't have a photo of me wearing it pre-YLF with a black sweater twin set, cream hose and black pumps (not much pizazz there!).

Here is the outfit I wore Thursday:
