The Blue Skirt #1

Do you all have one piece in your wardrobe that comes into play at least once or twice a week?

I definitely do and for me it's my high waist navy blue skirt. With money being tight and clothes the least bit of my buying concern, I love a good go to piece. To prove to myself that I can create multiple different looks without changing too much in my wardrobe, I'm going to start a recurring post called "The Blue Skirt" highlighting my outfit every time I wear it. I already posted a look with it last week (with that wolf tee), and I've got two more looks to add today. Hopefully by doing this it will challenge me to be a little more creative and inventive with my styling.
Hope you enjoy!

I definitely have pieces like this. They're usually black. :D

I have some, but they keep changing, depending on the time of the year...It was my red flamenco shoes and red thin belt for this Summer mostly...but then for Spring, whenever I was too lazy to think of an outfit, I wore my dark grey pinafore dress and a shirt in it to save the day!For most winter days I tend to wear a dark grey pencil skirt, it goes well with most tops, I also have two outfits that I wear when I don't feel like being creative or just ironing anything, They are guaranteed to look chic without an effort!One is based on a black skirt with an ethnic design and silver sequins, the other one is on a dark red skirt with an ethnic embroidery on it...

Your outfits are gorgeous,I especailly liked the one with the white ruffled shirt and t-straps!I have a weakness for both!

Blue skirt posts are a good idea, looking forward for the next!

What a wonderful idea! You look amazing in both outfits! I totally understand about a go-to piece that you remix....mine is a mustard colored cardigan. It is so beat up, but I continue to wear it with everything!!
