Over the next two weeks I will be exploring an area in The
Giants Closet called the Valley of the Duplicates. So far in the Valley of the Duplicates, I
have discovered seven white skirts and eight black skirts.
Yes, I own eight black skirts. Sure, they are all of varying lengths,
fabrication and style, but it’s still eight
black skirts. Which, if I’m honest,
seems at least a bit excessive. So, I
will be wearing, tossing or wearing and then
tossing all of those skirts over the next week or so. Starting with this black maxi skirt:
I paired the skirt (Target) with a cobalt tie-front blouse
(Old Navy) and pewter sandals (Lovely People via Piperlime). I also added a cuff (thrifted) and yellow
hoop earrings (Nordstrom)
This skirt is one of my more recent, pre-Nosh Opping
Expedition purchases from a time when I was single-handedly keeping my local
Target afloat. In my defense, I had a
black maxi skirt on my list for some time so it wasn’t an impulse
purchase. But, I did also have seven
other black skirts in my closet at the time, so, yeah.
Still, I think this one’s a keeper. As a giant it can be hard to find maxi skirts
(and dresses) that are long enough, but I think this one works. Also, it’s super comfortable, so, yes, this
one stays.
Tomorrow, I will bring you Black Skirt # 2.
Happy Monday, All!
Gracey
