(Forever 21 T, Jcrew belt, vintage skirt, Casio watch, Elizabeth and James Shane booties)
I recently took this vintage skirt
to the tailors to get the hem bumped up a few notches. It was falling
below the knee and the pattern was already a bit homey so I felt like an
old schoolmarm whenever I tried to wear it. I like the difference
shortening it a few inches made, it still feels demure but much more “of the
moment”.  
I have to say I’m also really happy with these boots from Elizabeth and James. They are breaking in nicely and I love how my ankle is visible when I wear a skirt (optimal leg elongation). The chocolate color goes with everything without being too matchy/matchy but they also come in black.
 How was your V-day? We ate sushi at our favorite secret spot and Mark got me some hankies with my name engraved on them. So sweet since he knows I’ve become obsessed with this blog.
