The mid-calf skirt


 
Hello and Happy Friday! This week has been extra full of things so I personally can't wait for some weekend sleeping in and the lack of the alarm going off in the morning! Now less about my deprivation of sleep and more on the outfit-side, apparently I'm trying to colourblock my way out of winter. Please tell me that I'm being a little bit successful; if not in turning the calendar a few months ahead, then at least in spreading a little pre-weekend cheer. 
 
One of my favourite things is the combination of midi skirts and booties: I just love that little bit of calf showing in between. Having this thought on a random day I realised I owned such a combo and I had yet to share it with the world, so here it is in the form of a Halston Heritage midi pleated skirt (on sale here) and a pair of Bottega Veneta lace ankle booties, probably the most romantique shoes I own. I don't believe I need to dwell on my appreciation for prints any more, you already know I like boldness this way, so I can only hope I made your Friday just a little bit less gloomy!
 



Thanks for reading!
