Reb’s Pick of The Month: Midi Skirts

If you’ve been following along with me over on my Sartorial Meanderings for the past few months, this midi skirt is NOT new to you. I’ve had it for a few months now and have been consistently wearing it IRL and on the blog. That’s why we like versatile pieces right? I featured it in two different “how to style” series on my IG TV that also ended up here. Once with a black button down and most recently with my Grateful Dead tee.  Now that I’m thinking of it – I reckon that might be the next piece that I show how to style over on good old instagram! I used to shy away from skirts because I found them to be generally uncomfortable but ever since the midi length came back into style I’ve found myself eyeing quite a few online. They come in all styles, prints & colors and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion, which is why I love ’em.  Clearly, I like to pair them with graphic tees but if you’re a crop top gal or more of a blouse lover, then you do you.

 

So! I’ve rounded up a few that I have been coveting from some sites like Free People, Revolve & ASOS and these are by no means all that’s out there.  The midi skirt world is your oyster if you will.  If you’re into this style, there are plentyyyy of options out there for you! Take a walk on the wild side with a leopard print, or stay classic with just plain black. Let me know which ones you are into in the comments below! Happy shopping xx

Styling Boots for Summer



If anyone ever said that you should put your boots & booties away during the summer, they were straight up wrong. We’re sorry if you feel led astray, but the truth of the matter is that you can rock your booties year round. Yes, yes, we love our sandals & heels, slides and sneaks but one thing we have in common is that we both tend to reach for our boots year round. They just have a way of elevating your look in a way that some summer flats just don’t.

Styling Statement Dresses for Summer

Dresses for summer – not exactly groundbreaking or surprising, we know.

The longer we have been at this, the easier it is to admit that while our style might change a little here and there – we’ve been pretty consistent in the last year or so. You can find us wearing lots of black & white, stripes, with pops of red and of course some statement pieces sprinkled in here and there. There’s nothing wrong with consistency right? ( See our post on the Tezza x INSPR collection as an example )
