STYLE NOTE: Black and white. My two favorite colors to wear. There is something so mysterious about black. A question asked, begging to be answered. There is something so chic about white. A richness and implied purity. Put them together, and you have the ultimate color palette!
Isn’t this A-line midi skirt adorable? The thick black and white stripes give off a couture feel, but at a fraction of the cost (only $36). RubyClaire Boutique offers so many trendy styles to add some voomph to your closet. Plus they are in Cache Valley, the home to my Utah State University! They also give 10 percent of the sales on the tenth of each month go to the Hope Cancer Foundation in Cache Valley! Way cool, right?
When I put this outfit together, I was channeling a harlequin/The Queen of Hearts. The pattern is not quite the diamond pattern that would be expected with those two, but the color scheme brings these characters to mind.

February 26, 2015I saw a similar (mainly just the B&W Stripes lol) skirt at Target the other day. But I was in a rush and didn't get to try it on. I want to go back, because even though this skirt isn't from target – it reminds me of it. And it looks so pretty on you, paired with that lemoney lime blouse. Gorgeous!
lauryncakes
February 28, 2015Well you need to buy that Target skirt! Thank you!
