Staying warm in Spring with a leather jacket and a maxi skirt. I might of jumped the gun when I added this skirt to my Nuuly box. It’s lightweight and perfect for spring and summer. Not so good for the chilly weather we have been having as of late. We had a week a little while ago with 80’s but ever since then it’s been downhill. I was freezing when we did this shoot. It was under 30 degrees! But I persevered and demonstrated how to style this type of skirt for cooler weather.

Another Piece from the Somerset Collection
Anthropologie has a collection called Somerset that contains many wonderful pieces that have a similar style and fabric. Last year I purchased this eyelet dress from that collection. The maxi skirt here is part of it as well. My dream was to wear this cute maxi skirt with a tank and sandals and call it a day. That wasn’t happening so adding the leather jacket was my last minute call. I like the contrast of styles of edgy and feminine. The neutral bag and sandals pull it all together.
It’s worth checking out this skirt on Anthropologie because of the pretty fabric and elastic waistband. It’s comfy to wear and it has a lining to boot. Couldn’t think of a better maxi skirt for summer. Wear it with thong sandals and a tee for a casual day at the beach or dress it up with tall wedges and a bodysuit for night.
My Crazy Birthday Month
It going to start to get really crazy around here. Lots of things happening. My mom, sister, and I are getting our flowers this week. Next week I am picking up Evan from college, then it’s my birthday, then it’s Mother’s Day. There is something planned almost every day of each weekend!
We recently took a trip to Indiana University to see my oldest son Evan conduct. It was incredible! He conducted and directed a piece called Soldier’s Tale by Igor Stravinsky. He pulled all the musicians and actors together on his own. I was one proud mama! This visit was also a chance for Austin to take a tour of the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana. I am also proud of him as well because he just inducted into the National Honors Society.
What do you have going on this month? Enjoy your week! XO
