Purple Sky


I wore this outfit on Monday. I discovered this skirt in the anthropologie sale room a couple of years ago and it has served me well! My favorite thing about it is the zipper that runs all the way down the front.

Cami: J. Crew
Cardigan: J. Crew
Skirt: Anthropologie
Tights: Hue
Shoes: Dansko
Necklace: Botanical Bird Purple Sky Necklace




Botanical Bird is one of my favorite ETSY shops. The pieces are cute, affordable, and well-made. I have always been super happy with my purchases (very fast shipping, great customer service, etc.). Here are a few items from Botanical Bird that are currently on my wishlist:

    I adore that necklace you're wearing. I sometimes shop from etsy sellers too, nothing but good things to say about them.
    And zippers on skirts! I heart 'em as much as pockets on skirts!

    What a cute skirt. I've never seen that one. Wildlife jewelry is awesome. This one is very pretty. Thanks for the intro to the etsy shop.
