I'm really beginning to dig maxi skirts. I like the boho chic vibe and the comfort it brings especially during the hotter days, which is what we have in Manila 90% of the time. A little over a year ago, if you'd ask me if I'd go for comfort over looks, I'd answer you with comfort without batting an eyelash. But after discovering the many, many beautiful (albeit often painful) things that fashion offers, if you'd ask me the same question, well...let's just say I'd have to think about it.

This skirt is actually my sister's but is currently residing in my closet. I discovered it among heaps of her old clothes while helping her pick her engagement/prenup shoot's outfits which we'll be doing by the end of the month. Such an interesting piece should not be relegated at the back, accumulating dust, so I took it out to see sunlight again.

It's pretty, isn't it? I'm having trouble deciding to keep it or give it back.

Hugs,
The Belated Bloomer

    That skirt really suits the top! And you pulled the boho chic look! You look great dear. :) Check my blog too because I am also sporting a maxi skirt! We're on the same boat before, I wasn't really eyeing and fond of wearing maxi skirts but I saw it a lot from many fashion blogs and finally gave it a shoot! Now, I welcome maxi skirts to my closet as often as i could. :)

      I think if you opt to wear a Maxi skirt and are on the short side, you should go for a tighter fit on the top. :) Try it!

    The skirt has a great print and it's so pretty! I think you should take it, I doubt your sister will even know! hehe But yeah the outfit is great and I I know what you mean, I would have never wear a maxi skirt or dress but now I'm loving them! :)
