WIW: full skirt and stripes (inspired by Angie)

Diana

Angie's post this morning inspired me to break out a full skirt for today's outfit. Like our fearless leader, I decided to pair it with stripes - this striped silk blouse was purchased at the NYC meetup last weekend. I am wearing it semi-tucked.

Very happy in this outfit today!

Joe Fresh blouse, F21 waistcoat, BR skirt, ? nude tights, Frye boots.

KILLER to the power of KILLER. You know I don't dish those out often. An A++++ for new proportions!! Very 2013. So fresh and modern! *WOW*. I am very impressed!

Gathered skirt (hard to wear!), with a relaxed tucked shirt, long open gilet, and mid calf boots. Nude hose make the outfit. Absolutely genius!

You have lots of fashion flair, Diana. What a treat to see your creativity each day! And I am humbled to have inspired this outfit.

Now excuse me while I faint.

Cute! I need to get some nude tights. I like the vest with that striped blouse!

So cute. You and Angie make me want to dig through my boxes and wardrobe that's still there packed for one of my full skirts. One of these days - when Spring finally appears if ever - I may even be tempted to do just that.

Taking notes...
- striped top
- waistcoat
- booties

That waistcoat is TDF, btw.

Angie! You made my day! =) Thank you for the inspiration. I would not have come up with this had I not seen your outfit this morning - it was just what I needed to inspire me!

I would replicate this in a heart beat... Just waiting for the temperature to go up though

AMAZING! Am almost inspired to wear a skirt in the snow.

And seeing your outfit made my day, Diana :). It will go down in YLF outfit history.

I am SO sticking up for nude hose. Thank you stylish women of Japan, for showing me the light.

You look fantastic in this outfit - it is my favorite of yours so far!

You know, Angie, I am actually not wearing nude hose. It's too cold for sheer hose right now. I'm wearing opaque nude footless tights. Which sounds HORRIBLE, I know, but they work really well. I actually need to replace these as they are getting ratty but they are hard to find!

Ah. But it's the same idea, Diana. Just a thicker version - and no one is the wiser about the footless part.

Fantastic outfit - so fun and fresh. And it's nice to see the Joe Fresh blouse out and about already! I am so happy about nude hose (although I never stopped wearing them, just now I feel less ashamed.)

I'm completely inspired by the proportions you;ve created here Diana! The addition of the waistcoat just elevates this to another level. You look stunning!

Gorgeous, Diana!! Love the fun, flirty proportions and the vest with the shirt. This is one of your best, ever.

I wore nude hose in London! YAY for nude hose.

Awesome, Diana. I love this on you! I love the longer vest with that skirt. Must keep that in mind.

I like your colors. Steampunk greys and blacks.
