I almost wanted to hold on to this skirt for awhile before wearing it, just to let the Limsanity calm down a bit, but I changed my mind. To be honest, I did struggle a little bit trying to decide how I wanted to wear this. I kept wanting to reach for my trusty chambray or go matchy-matchy with a cobalt top. Navy and white stripes has become such a neutral combo for me lately, so I opted for this top. The skirt definitely has a girly vibe to it because of its shape, so I wanted to funk it up a little bit with these peep toe booties - which are ridiculously comfortable by the way.
The great thing about a new Target collaboration is that it's viral. You see the collection everywhere, including how it saturates the blogger world. On one hand, I feel vulnerable, like everyone that sees me in public is thinking - oh, that's that Phillip Lim skirt again....But I felt better when someone complimented me on the skirt today and was shocked when I told them it was from Target. Then there's the other hand - the benefit to it being everywhere - there's so much inspiration to pull from! As I was writing this post, I decided to see what else was out there. I loved how these ladies styled their skirts also! Just proves how versatile this skirt is and that each of you need it, too! #enabler

Limsanity!! Love that. I know about it...and love it(!)...but don't have anything from the collection yet :( I really, really like how you styled this skirt. The pattern mixing is fantastic!

Thanks, Katie! On both counts! I'm not creative with my hair, which makes me appreciate the fact that I can manage this updo on my own!
DeleteI think as a blogger we tend to see the same items over and over again so assume that it's the real world; when in fact, the majority of people probably have no idea what a brand or item is so trendy! You did a great job styling. Stripes are a great neutral :)
ReplyDeleteCompletely agree about the blogger reality vs real life reality! Love being surrounded by fellow addicts! :) Thanks for the sweet note, lady!!
Deletelove how you styled this skirt and love the other bloggers' looks as well. i snagged the yellow mini satchel and boom sweatshirt and now you make me want to snag the skirt :)
