WIW 6/14: New blue watercolor skirt

MsMary

Veteran

I liked my orange printed pencil skirt so much that when I found a blue watercolor version on sale I snapped it right up! I think it has the potential to be a real summer wardrobe workhorse. And props to whoever suggested that The Cutest Purse In The World would play nicely with light blue, because I think you're right!

Print pencil skirt: Halogen
Light blue silk tee: Eileen Fisher via consignment
Dark teal cotton blazer: Halogen
Black patent pumps: Madden Girl
Cutest Purse In The World: Gaya
White ceramic watch: Oniss

Thanks for looking and Happy Flag Day to those in the U.S.!

P.S. I'm curly today because I overslept and didn't have time for the whole blow dry/flat iron ordeal.

You look as fresh and as pretty as a Spring daisy, Mary! Or should I say Summer daisy?

I'd like to see this skirt worn with light colours too - from head to toe - and from side to side. You have been challenged

Another fabulous MaryK outfit. Cutest Purse is the perfect touch.

Is there anything TCPITW doesn't go with?? Love the new skirt. Team Duplicates FTW! I'm excited to see what shakes loose after Angie's challenge, too.

A match made in heaven. LOVE the blues, cool green, pattern mixing of the skirt and dots. You look beautiful with curls, too.

I love this! It's like a gull's egg palette --- pale blue with black and cream, with just a little fleck of vegetation in there. Beautiful!

Cute outfit to go with the cute purse! And I love your curly hair too. I find it ironic that you are spending a bunch of time straightening your beautiful naturally curly hair and meanwhile my hair stylist recommended I start putting hot rollers in my hair to make it curly. There's something wrong with that picture!

Curly looks great on you - nice for a change too I would think. That skirt is fantastic. You will have to think about the Angie challenge

You have caused skirt-coveting.

I will definitely accept Angie's challenge!

Meredith, the skirt is here: http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....ltback=756. It's on sale and they still have a decent selection of sizes left!

You were made for a print pencil skirt! I just love you in blues too, and your curly locks are TDF.

Beautiful skirt! Nicely styled here, and can't wait to see it with an all light supporting cast as Angie challenged.

OMG, they sold out of what I THINK is my size in this before I had a chance to order. I am wondering if I can go one size higher.

I have the 0P in the Seamed skirt. Was planning to order the 2 regular in this. Do you think I could work the 4 regular? Waist about 25 or a fraction more, hips 34 or a bit less.

And um. in case you couldn't guess, I love the outfit!! LOL>
