Sunshine Cleaning
T by Alexander Wang Top, Anthropologie Skirt and Headband, Marc Jacobs Purse, Alexander McQueen Pumps
My closet is predominantly overrun by stripes. While they’re certainly not the most flattering of patterns, I find myself scooping them by the armfuls. This weekend I found this nautical skirt at Anthropologie and promptly changed in the dressing room so that I could wear it out of the store. Its simple pleats and voluminous shape are a slight departure from the usual skirts I drift towards, but the stripes make it fit perfectly with the rest of my wardrobe. Plus, who can resist something with a polka dot lining?

I love this outfit! The skirt is gorgeous. I can’t get enough of stripes either.
I never would have thought that Minnie The Mouse bow would work but it does. It adds some whimsy to the bold outfit. Those shoes are are rockin, rip Alexander McQueen.

http://hellomypretties.blogspot.com/
That skirt is to die for – and polka dots?! Be still, my beating heart.
Love it. This is perfect! Great colors and awesome patterns.
I agree with all previous posters, the skirt is terrific! I also love the bright yellow shoes in the otherwise black and white outfit.

Awesome comfy t and great skirt…I wonder if it’s reversible?
Really adorable outfit! That skirt is a great find and I just love the pattern and pouffy shape. The pairing of the red headband and yellow shoes is also a great combination. And no one can resist polka dots!

That skirt and those pumps are amazing. The polka dot lining is adorable! I’m a sucker for cute lining too. You look fabulous. So funny that you talk about changing in the dressing room. I always want to do that when I get something new!
love the skirt. wish they made it with the polka dots on the outside. that would be really cute. bet it’s not too difficult as a diy with a vintage t and a wide band elastic…hmmm…maybe a project for next week…
thanks, looks like it was a beautiful weekend on the west coast. it was mixed weather here in nyc.

I love how you did your hair, really cute!
I have been drooling over that skirt for a while now (in fact, I think it’s landed in more than a couple Feather Report looks!) I’m glad someone bit the bullet and bought it. I had no idea it had a polka dot lining, and now I’m only coveting it more.
PS those shoes are AMAZING!! And your hair looks adorbs. One of my top five looks you’ve ever posted:)
I LOVE YOUR BLOG!! first time visiting! u are such an inspo!!
Love how this whole outfit plays together, the colors and the pattern.

The skirt is awesome, and I love the pumps!

I can’t resist ANYTHING with polka dot lining.
Oh seriously. That lining is TOO MUCH! And the pink and yellow accents in this ensemble are marvelous.
i just went to anthropologie this past Friday and was pleasantly surprised with all of the cute summer stuff they have! I had lost faith in them after they went a little too conservative for my liking, but im hooked again now!!

Oh you truly look like a sunshine girl.
Nice! Love your super cute headband!
well…those stripes are extremely flattering
love the shoes too!
Love the Anthro skirt with the happy yellow heels!
Wow I need that skirt! Anthopologie is adorbs.
Gorgeous skirt! Polka dotted lining – brilliant! Killer combination of headband and yellow heels, love it!!
That skirt is incredible! I usually don’t like bubble hems, but I’d rethink my stance if for it.

AHHHHH! Love love love everything about the outfit. Just the top, skirt (*drool) and bright ochre heels are fab by themselves, but then the unexpected pop of color from the headband? Fantastic.
Emily, can you get cuter?!? I think not. These pictures are adorable yet subtly (for lack of a bigger vocabulary) hot. You look really beautiful and I think that’s what I love about your personal style, every look can be so different from the last yet still ‘you’ and you always pull it off. : )
So pretty! I love the polka dot lining…and those yellow pumps are the perfect pop of color.

I love stripes…that skirt is amazing.
Glad to see your website is up and running great!

I love this whole outfit!! What a cute skirt, paired with the yellow shoes!
Very summery!

Love your new skirt! Cute lining. x

You got the Minnie Mouse headband from Anthro! Looks super cute on you. Foreheadbands just look ridiculous on me, though.
http://seejaneworkplaylive.blogspot.com/
I tried on this skirt and it just didn’t work like it does on you. Adorbz!
INCREDIBLY adorable outfit!
Enter my first giveaway ever over at my blog!

This is the cuteness! Love the pop of primary colours with the shoes and the headband. This outfit makes me smile.
http://idlefascination.blogspot.com/
OK – I officially am so jealous of your legs! I have that skirt, but it’s more closer to knee-length on me. You look incredible as always and your hair’s gorgeous! Great outfit!

The skirt is really cute! I love that you added a pop of color(s) with the shoes and headband.

those great yellow pumps make the outfit POP!
http://asequindressatbreakfast.wordpress.com
I LOVE that skirt! Completely agree about the polka-dot lining. However, I think I’d have to say that the shoes would be my favorite part of the outfit — so bright and cheerful.

hello?! adorable. I love stripes too and even as a pregnant lady I find that I’m wearing them all the time. I found a few cute tops that I’ve been wearing practically as a uniform. this skirt is so beautiful and with those polka dots (another fave of mine) on the inside…awesome!
i love that skirt, a lot. and stripes. and this whole ensemble.
the polka dots are great!

I am a huge fan of funky headbands…they can dress up and dressed down outfit.
The shoes by the way, to die for!
LOVE the pop of color with the shoes.
And I’m a crazy person when it comes to stripes. Idk what it is.
I have been waiting for this skirt to go on sale… now I kinda have to have it. Your outfit is so cute!!

Love the skirt! I fell in love with it after I saw Naomi on The Rockstar Diaries wearing it, and now I’m loving it even more. I’m definitely going to need to buy it now!
Great post!
I have to say the skirt is pretty darling! However, the shoes are the best part!

I love the photo where you’re showing the lining! So cute
wow, your skirt is amazing!
I absolutely love it!
You look great as always.

Loving the McQueen pumps! And doesn’t Anthropolgie’s clothes have the cutest little details? No one sees the polka dot lining of the skirt yet it definitely plays a part as to why you like it overall. Love that store!
http://www.StyleLustPages.com
Love the skirt…and the lining
that headband (or scarf) is a great color – especially against the black and white. And normally, bubble skirts aren’t the most flattering – such an odd trend -but this really works on you. Very nice!
I bought that same skirt recently and have been wondering what to do with it. Thanks for the inspiration–I love the splashes of color!
Chevron stripes are almost always flattering!
And who doesn’t love polka-dots?!
That skirt is gorgeous! I’m a huge fan of stripey as well
http://www.raindropsofsapphire.wordpress.com
cute.cute.cute.cute.CUTE!
ADORE this outfit. The headband is totally something that I would buy and never wear. But I love it.
What a fab outfit. Of course, you cant say no to polka dots
ok so i have been in love with that skirt ever since it came out. and dying to get it! but the price tag is killing me. i may just have to do it anyways…it is so darling! and my dear. you have perfect legs. way to be.
That skirt is amazing! Great outfit!
