I bought this skirt during a brave moment a few weeks back, and I am surprised how much I actually like it. It’s a little outside my comfort zone, but also surprisingly wearable.

I quickly took these photos last Saturday before attending a friend’s wedding. It was the first time since early June that I had attempted heels and I was determined to make it work, Unfortunately, even a minimal amount of walking proved too much & I reluctantly changed into flats after the ceremony. Too much too soon…
