Now, I know that my weekly style posts are called Frock Fridays, but I'm going to blame my lingering cold for going out on a limb here and focusing on skirts today. (Last week's used a skirt, not a dress, yes, but I'm usually pretty reliable, aren't I?) When we were at the Leesburg Outlets before the race this past Friday, I fell in love with a sweater at the Banana Republic Factory Outlet - it's totally not me, but I couldn't resist it. Look at how cute it is!
But, since it's nothing like anything else I own, I don't really have a ton of options to wear with it. So what better excuse to put together a fall wishlist? Obviously I don't own any of these skirts (or shoes, though I do have similar heels and ballet flats), but a girl can dream...

Those Cole Haan oxfords have been at the top of my wishlist for a while now! I love my oxfords :)
ReplyDeleteI love the pencil skirt and the oxfords! xx
ReplyDeleteLove the sweater - definitely a fun one to branch out on! I think it would be adorable with that brocade mini. Hope you're all better soon!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute sweater! Sometimes those out-of-the-box finds end up becoming fast favorites. The brocade skirt is adorable too.
ReplyDeleteVery cute sweater, and surprisingly versatile - I'd wear it with skinny jeans and rain boots...because that's the weather heading my way :P
ReplyDeleteto me, that sweater is just asking to be paired with a good pair of pants [bonus points if they're in a fun color, since the sweater is so neutral]. something about wearing it with a skirt strikes me as a funny combo, but I'm really not sure why I'm having that reaction. it's not like sweater+skirt is something groundbreaking or unusual... but regardless, that is a REALLY cute sweater.
ReplyDeleteI love that kilt. I want to grab it off the screen and run away with it. Just another thing I hate about living in a hot climate - I probably couldn't wear that here. I love the sweater with the floral skirt and wine-colored flats the best. I love it with the kilt, too, but I worry about the Catholic schoolgirl association!
ReplyDeleteLove this! And that gorgeous new sweater will look great with all those skirts!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute sweater! I hope you're feeling even better today!
ReplyDeleteThat tartan skirt! Reminds me of the high-school uniform skirt, which I adored! Also, I'd easily pair this with the J. Crew Pixie or Minnie pant. Classic black cut that you can't go wrong with :) Glad you're feeling better, dear!
ReplyDeleteI KNOW. it is. but I have to tell you - two weeks ago, before the race, I went to try on pants. I was feeling fit and good about my body and so I went to try on pants. And I left totally hating myself. So I am anti-pants right now.
ReplyDeletewe just had that last night! I need a new pair of rain boots...
ReplyDeleteisn't it? I wonder if they have it in Tall :)
ReplyDeleteI think an occasional Catholic schoolgirl association is okay :)
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU! everyone is pushing pants... I think I may have to cave to peer pressure :P
ReplyDeleteI'm obsessed with that plaid skirt. I'm loving all the plaid I've been seeing, and I've been trying to decide if a (cough) 30 something can pull off the same thing I pulled off when I was 14.
ReplyDeletewhy not? I feel like there's an intermediate window where you can't unless it's for a fancy dress party (say, ages 17-27) but after that it's fine!
ReplyDeleteI will forever be devoted to mini-kilts and all things tartan.
ReplyDeletehaha a schoolgirl at heart - I like :)
