I recently bought a gray wool A-line skirt. I can Wear It With Everything! It looks so good with jewel tones.
Wear It With Everything
It also looks pretty chic when worn with fur and mustard.
Of course, nothing is more classic that wearing it with a white shirt.
Red is Mr. Décor’s favorite. With tights. Must be a school girl thing. 🙂
I found my skirt at the thrift store for $4.99. It is vintage.
It had a classic “A line” silhouette which I loved. But the button and belt loops had to go.
I dug through my button jar and found this single fleur de lis silver button and took scissors and a seam ripper to the belt loops. Perfection in five minutes!
I have fallen more and more in love with this fashionable gem as I reach for it again and again. It truly is a classic I can wear with everything.
Ladies, get yourselves to the thrift store and find one. Pair it with your jewel-toned holiday sweater and thank me later.

Yes, I have a lovely a-line grey skirt that is timeless and yes I wear it again and again. I have a black one of the same style – bought them both at the same time and I think I've had them for at least 11 years. 🙂
Hope you're having a wonderful week,
Linda
