Skirting The Issue...

Full skirts instead of tight skirts are more my cup of tea these days. I love how these flouncy bouncy pieces swish swash around the legs, so upbeat and cheery an action:)

This high waisted Damisi Collage Print Skirt by Marc by Marc Jacobs can easily be balanced off with a budget conscious basic like a plain white tank top. Similarly, Diane von Furstenberg's Tiger Jacquard A-line Miniskirt with box pleating looks just as fabulous with an essential black tank top. Cinch it with a belt and it tells a hip new tale.

For a more sophisticated twist, simply switch to a dressier top. This fitted bustier just about perfects that cocktail chic.

One skirt, two looks, this is what I term recession proof shopping:)
