07 May Flowing Chiffon Spring Skirt
It is warn today! I have wanted to wear this though for awhile. I love chiffon. This is one of those twirly, soft, feminine, light and airy skirts. I tried this on, at Ann Taylor, and I wasn’t so sure that it would be me, as I am used to more pencil skirts, or some midi skirts, but ah, the material! So, I tried it on, and then found this lovely cardigan that I have had for years to pair with it. There is also something unique about this as well, a snakeskin pattern with tan, and then undertones of peach. The little buds of flowers are always cheery to me, on this cardigan, even though it was so darn hot!!
I remember before my wedding we took swing dance lessons, and I could definately do that in this outfit!! This skirt with bobby socks, hair in a pony tail etc. But when it came down to it.. we resorted back to the box step, even though we had a great swing band, really hip! We decided to go to one of our favorite neighborhoods, and enjoy the day.

Posted at 21:10h, 07 MayThanks so much. The texture is snakeskin in the skirt, which is probably as edgy as I am. Just loved how feminine it is. Come back anytime! I enjoy your blog as well. Jess

Posted at 20:41h, 07 MaySuch a pretty cardi. Love it. By the way, I cant go direct to your site from your comment. It sends me to your profile and then lists your blog as Healthy Living but nothing comes up .

Posted at 20:54h, 07 MayThank you Sian I will check my link. I appreciate it. I loved the cardi when I bought it, I have a thing for tactile flowers and such on sweaters, tops etc. Next time i wear the skirt I will also take a close up of the pattern. Thanks for visiting. Jess 🙂

Posted at 18:23h, 07 MayThank you Rachael! Swing dancing is so fun! I love it. My favorite contemporary band is Cherry Poppin Daddies, and Big Bad Voodoo Daddies, but I also love Glen Miller, all of the old favorite swing bands. I loved that this was light and airy and just flowed Thanks again.
