**Finally found a room in my house with good lighting!
The title refers to the theatrical skirt I'm wearing in this picture which I truly love. I think there's a few things in every person's closet that only suit them, and this skirt is the one for me. I love it because it is different and has a personality all its own. (I got it at Forever 21, just in case you are wondering.) I find that Forever 21 does have some eclectic stuff. It's a store my sister and I can walk into and she'll buy somehting that I would never wear, and I'll buy something that she would never wear. Although eclectic pieces can be found world wide, in vintage stores, and sometimes in your mother's closet. That's where fashion gets fun and gains personality. My mother actually suggested I wear a black jacket, but I was experimenting with the slate blue because wouldn't pairing it with black be so expected?
So here's a few tips how to break this outfit down. Pick one fun piece, anything you love but perhaps something that not everyone has seen before or is wearing. If it's patterned and kind of out there like this skirt then keep it neutral, but have fun with the accessories. This is wear fashion turned around for me this past year even, because I find when you stop just putting on nice clothes and start putting together a look your creative juices start flowing and that's when fashionwise you take off. One thing I read about years ago is that the key was finding your own style, or like me enjoying your favorite multiple styles. So don't just pile on pretty clothes, create a look!
