A Romantic 50ies Lady - Floral Midi Skirt

Written by 59 Comments

I want to recolor the bench



I want to recolor the bench because for one, it needs it and two the color just doesn't go so well with my outfit. This is a date night look. Feminine, a bit lady like, romantic, 50ies vibe and all that. I am wearing my new Zara midi skirt with floral print that I bought during summer sales, a cashmere pull that I thrifted for 1,50€, a pair of thrifted wedge sandals that already have become a favorite and my new striped bag, which I am using as a clutch here.

This is my first and only midi skirt, because I always figured the length wasn't working on me, but I think it is not a problem, especially with heels. Always worth trying things again from time to time.

Also, I am wearing pink!

Voglio ricolorare la panchina perché innanzitutto ne ha bisogno e poi il colore non va tanto bene con il mio outfit. Quest è un look "date night". Femminile, un po' bon ton, romantico, un po retrò, eccetera. Indosso la mia nuova gonna midi con fantasia floreale di Zara, acquistata durante i saldi estivi, un maglioncino in cashmere trovato di seconda mano per 1,50€, un paio di sandali con zeppe di seconda mano che sono già entrati tra i miei preferiti e la mia nuova borsa a righe, qui portata come pochette.

 Questo è la mia prima e unica gonna midi, perché originariamente pensavo che la lunghezza non mi stesse bene, però non sembra affatto essere un problema, soprattutto con le scarpe alte.

 E poi indosso il rosa!

Ich moechte die Bank neu anstreichen weil, naja erstens weil sie es noetig hat und zweitens weil sich die Farbe mit meinem Outfit nicht so gut vertraegt. Das hier ist fuer mich ein "Date Night" Look. Weiblich, ein bisschen Dame, romantisch, 50ies Flair und all das. Ich trage meinen neuen Zara Midi Rock mit Blumenprint den ich im Sommerschlussverkauf erstanden habe, einen Second Hand Kashmir Pulli der mich 1,50€ gekostet hat, ein paar Second Hand Sandalen mit Keilabsatz die gerade auf der Beliebtheitsskala nach oben wandern und meine neue gestreifte Tasche, die ich hier als Clutch benutze.

Das ist mein erster und einziger Midi Rock, da ich immer davon ausgegangen bin, dass mir die Laenge nicht steht, aber es scheint nicht der Fall zu sein, zumindest wenn ich dazu Schuhe mit Absatz trage. Es lohnt sich, Dinge immer mal wieder neu zu probieren.

Und ich trage rosa!

    I love the skirt - it really is fifties, but the colours are awesome and give you so much choice as to which top to choose. Love the pink though as well :)

      Yes, I too think that it gives you many options for matching despite the pattern.

    Very cute - though if I wore it I'd have to wear the top untucked - I don't have such a neat little waist as you!

      Keeping it untucked was the first version, so it definitely works as well.

    Love this gorgeous floral midi skirt! So pretty with your pink sweater. The fun wedges and striped clutch counter balance the sweetness perfectly.

    Oh, I love that midi skirt, I think I have the top of the same print, lol! Great combination with the pink top, so playful and pretty. :)

      Yes, I think it's part o a coordinates set, as there's a peplum top with the same print. I just didn't think the peplum would suit me. Hah! There's another experiment waiting for me.

    I'm in love with green right now so I love your skirt. I just bought one of those strapless dress/midi/ maxi skirt pieces and I wore it as a midi skirt this past Sunday. I'm planning on posting mine Monday for Share-in-Style. Of course, by the end of the day, I had pulled it down into a maxi skirt. I do like midi's, although what you say its true...sometimes it seems like an odd length to work with. I like how you styled it. A fitted top is definitely the way to go.
