A Summertime-Only Maxi Skirt Wearer Changes Her Thinking

Friday, December 30, 2011

Ever done something for weeks, months, possibly years, and then one day wondered, “Why?” That happened with me and maxi skirts.

I’m the maxi skirt’s biggest fan. All summer long I slip them on, loving their striking yet effortless vibe. I have an emerald green one, a pink pleated one and a silver number that could do double duty at a black-tie event.

But wear one in winter? Most certainly not!

Was there a reason I didn’t wear maxi skirts during the winter? Most certainly not. Perhaps it just never occurred to me. However, I recently righted that wrong, picking up this tartan beauty at Chi-Chi and the Greek. All I had to do was slip it on, add a long-sleeve T and a couple of choker necklaces, and a convert I became.

The very first place I wore it was Bloomfield Nails where, upon stepping foot in the salon, a young lady in the middle of a manicure gasped and exclaimed, “I love your skirt!” (We’re now best friends…)

And my maxi skirts will be spending a whole lot of time out and about this winter season.
