Does this title intrigue you? I hope so! Shooting this look was an experience for sure! It is a look I have been sitting on for a bit while I was looking for decorative pins for this skirt.
You may remember the last time I style this skirt; I mentioned wanting to find some decorative pins to try to stich the slit closed a little without actually getting it altered. I was thinking the pins would make the skirt more interesting as well as add some texture. Well, after a long search, I finally found a pack of pins on Amazon! I ordered them and I am honestly so thrilled with them!
I do love how they look with the skirt! And I have a pretty decent selection of pins, so I can switch them out or pair them with other looks! Needless to say, I am very excited to find other ways and looks to pair them with!
I had picked out red mules to wear with this look, to tie in with the red turtleneck. USUALLY, I always put the shoes on beforehand and make sure I like the whole look before I head out, but for some reason this time I figured the mules were the perfect choice. A shoe in, if you will!
I am so sorry for that! xD
I got to my shooting location and took a few pictures with the mules and,,, did not love them. Shocker, right? Well, I had my converses with me, so I decided to give them a shot too, because in reality I will wear them with this skirt a lot! So, I tried a few pictures with my converses. I still was not blown away with how they looked. It looked like too festive a look for casual footwear.
I hated to have to drive home to grab a new pair of shoes, so in desperation, I looked through my trunk. I happened to have some bags of items I was planning to donate to Goodwill and after some rummaging, I found a pair that I thought would work well!
They are not the comfiest of shoes, partly because they are slightly too big. I felt like I was squeezing my toes to keep the shoe on when I walked. But they served their purpose in this particular moment.
So, kids, don't make the mistake I made. Always make sure to check your entire outfit, including shoes and bag, before you leave the house!
Thank you so much for reading! I will see you Wednesday with an exciting video about my time at the Queen City Awards over the weekend!
Have a great week! Be safe!
