Fringed Cowlneck in Ivory, size M  reviewed here, here
 

Close up of skirt material, color, texture:

The skirt is thick, almost brocade like, and the stitching does remind me of something I would make as a teen for the canning jar lid...and then you put candy in it and gave a gift.  Please tell me I am NOT alone with these memories from the past.

 

Even closer:

 

I put with a true red and a true orange belt (both from Target) and even though the pic looks like it is orange, it really is a cross between the two.

 

Styled:

Nope...do not like the heavy black tights.  Oh, it has pockets!

Wearing daughters boots.  never know what to do with that hand...giving a wave.  I would make the skirt shorter, but hard to do because the material is stiff and hard to roll.

 

Do like the sheer tights much better.

Finally:

Not sure why but I like the pink J Crew Tippi with it, hmm.

I think I have spring fever because I want to style it for spring.  It definitely is a fall, winter skirt.  100% cotton with 100% polyster lining.  Again the skirt is very thick.

 

A bit off topic but, I have been having troubles getting my pictures loaded.  One day while trying to figure out the problem I looked at the Traffic Sources for my views.  One of them was a google search for "nice t*ts in a see-through sweater".  I immediately thought, "damn some one thinks I have nice t*ts!"  And then, "Perv!" So this is the image they got:

 Oh the Disappointment!!!
