Chic Thrills

I love a good flounce skirt and this little number is fun and a bit edgy. The marble-print in shades of black and burgundy gives this otherwise feminine cut a bit of edge. I toned down that edge by pairing the skirt with floral tights and a sweet graphic sweater. I like the irony of pairing a "très chic" sweater with an edgier piece. Tough meets sweet! I decided to break the line between the tights and boots with burgundy socks and opted for the same shade with my outdoor accessories. I did not reinvent the wheel with today's palette. I was able to achieve interest with prints and textures rather, than relying solely on colour to spice up the look.
