Annnnnnd We Are Back!

Hello and welcome back! 

Happy New Year! 

I wanted to start off the year with a strong look! And this was actually the first one I shot, so I ran with it! I'm on a mission this year. to restyle every piece in my closet, and if I can't, or if it doesn't fit, or is in bad shape, I'm getting rid of it. No holding back! It's going to be a harsh cut, but it is important to do this from time to time. 

It is a great way to revitalize your closet, your clothes, even your mind. 

Stick with me here! 

When you go through your clothing, sometimes you pull out pieces maybe you have not worn in a while. Maybe this time you have a new idea for a way to style it?! Maybe seeing it with fresh eyes, gives you inspiration! 

That is what happened when I pulled out this maxi skirt. I got it a year ago and love it! But sometimes I go to style it and feel stuck. I had actually come across another creator who had styled a plaid maxi skirt, with a denim shacket. I really liked the way she had styled it, so I decided to recreate the look. 

I paired my oversized denim shacket with the maxi skirt. This creates an interesting contrast in both texture and length. If you don't have a shacket, a denim jacket would create the same effect, it would just vary in the length. 

Then I added a scarf belt for a jarring pop of color, and to cinch the waist a bit. 

I personally love the orange and retro print, against the darker hues and the plaid print. That is just my preference. But you could use a variety of different scarves and prints, or even, no scarf and just a regular belt instead! 

Not overthinking it is key here. Just have fun and play around with different pairings. When something really feels right to you, you'll know! 

Thanks for reading! I am looking forward to sharing more posts with you this year and give you more specific styling tips that I have learned over the years! So, stay tuned! 

Have a great weekend!
