Old Fashioned

 Sweater: Forever 21, Skirt: H&M, Heels: Gap (old), Accessories: Karen Walker sunglasses, Frank Gehry x Fossil watch, ily couture bracelet, Anthropologie ring, bombom dainty ring (c/o)

There's a charm and elegance with a full skirt that I just adore. That's probably why I love looks from the '50s. I've pined after this H&M skirt since it came out in a fun yellow mustard color but, I missed out on it. This time, when it came out in a pretty ivory color I jumped at purchasing it. Plus, H&M currently has a 30% off coupon for Valentine's Day so feel free to splurge a little bit on yourself.

Old fashioned is very fashionable, at least in my opinion :) I'm loving this red and white ensemble, particularly the bow detail on your shoes and that gorgeous full skirt!

Crazy Style Love said...

Ummm, I'm totally with you on missing out on the yellow...I don't think my H&M ever carried it in that colour because I was checking at least once a week. I'm heading to H&M asap after work to check for the white. You look just gorgeous in it!!! Wow, I'm so in love!! Wish me luck!

This is so much of what I love- casual and not too girly, yet a fifties full skirt and the color palette!'
