Carla - I actually ended up donating the blue print full skirt. In the end, it just didn't feel "right". The waistband was too bulky with the gathers starting higher up and as Anna had wondered the pattern ended up not feeling like me at all.

Angie - oh my! I'm humbled by your K2K rating

Thank you all so much for your lovely comments.

Shannon, I love this outfit! It has a very edgy/punky feel to it! Love the contrast of the floaty skirt with the docs and I love how you topped it off with a classy blazer and accessorized with a patterned clutch. LOVE IT!

Can't believe you were ever not happy with this perfect skirt, now perfectly styled!

I love, love, LOVE, this outfit - the boots with the skirt is insanely fabulous!

Your smile in #2 says it all; you do look as good as you feel! Kudos on the styling!

How fun! I was just eyeing the Doc Marten site is telling me to buy!

You are all kinds of awesome, Shannon, and I love the idea of a fishnet, too. Very Saint Laurent!

Shannon, this is a knockout! I am taking a lesson from your comment about structure. Your assymetric hairstyle is really starting to make a statement now.
