Bows on Bows

What to wear with a midi skirt

In case you haven’t noticed, I kind of have a thing for Kate Spade. I can’t bear to pay full price for most things, no matter how much I love them, so I scour TJ Maxx and Marshalls, scroll through Poshmark, shop the outlets, and keep my eye out for Surprise Sales. It was during a Surprise Sale in October that I found this adorable poplin skirt, and immediately added it to my cart when I saw that it was under $60. My favorite part of the skirt is the bow, so I decided to go all out and wear bows on my shirt and in my ears too. I love how bows are so fun and feminine, playful while somehow still staying classy!

This is what I wore for a day around Dallas over the weekend (hence the bare legs!). I was there to celebrate my best friend’s bridal shower, but we also made time for some DIY projects and great food with her family. The furry photo bomber is her parents’ new puppy, Daily. I was missing my little guy, so I was more than happy to play. Can’t wait to see how much he’s grown into his paws when we’re back in May for the wedding!
