Cherry Meets Melon

January 23rd, 2013

 J.Crew Hat, Ray-Ban Aviators, Madewell Sweater, Acne Skirt, Prada Shoes, Clare Vivier Clutch

I usually associate longer dresses and skirts with fancier occasions, but this outfit couldn’t have been more relaxed and comfortable. I’ve had this skirt for a while –  it’s my go-to piece for when I need to punch things up a bit. Instead of pairing it with something neutral (like I did here and here), I loved the way it looked when worn with a similarly bright sweater.

    Beautiful combination of colors! I like that glympse of high heel in the last shot. Those look like amazing shoes. Also…love the touch of lepard! This is such a chic look :)

    The outfit is impecable -and I also loved the other combinations you showed from previous posts. But if I believe that the skirt is too long…perhaps a good taylor can cut like 4cm below. Gorgeous as always! xo,

    Nice skirt but I agree with previous comments…it’s too long (and I’ve also checked the previous photos and same feeling… too much fabric at the bottom…not falling rights …)

    Great outift, I love the two colors together, and also the purse. I also think that the skirt is quite interesting seen from the back, I see some strings.

    What an absolutely ravishing outfit! You couldn’t have been more spot on with the choice of colour gradients. I adore colour blocking – this is certainly one of my favourite looks of yours! <3

    The skirt is just a little bit too long as mentioned above (I’m sounding like a parrot) but the outfit is super flattering you look tiny,tiny! (not that you ever,evvvvvver look fat..Just had to note that)
    Anyway..I’ll shhhh now!
