it's a girl thing // coral and silver

The Details:

Maxi Skirt: Kohl's {12.00}

Sweater : Goodwill {6.99}

Cami: Forever 21 {1.90}

Shoes: Payless {19.99}

Earrings (not pictured, they're two sets of diamond studs): Claire's {8.99}

I bought this maxi last weekend because I was shopping with my sister-in-law and really can't resist maxi skirts. :) Plus it was totally almost 60% off. (Mom was slightly perturbed when I brought it home because it's not the third striped maxi I own. But they're in different colors so they really are not that similar. haha) 

This outfit was actually an accident. :) When Eden asked me to do a Fashion Friday for her this weekend, I planned out a cute summery outfit featuring my favorite polka dotted dress. But when I woke up that day, (actually after I had several cups of coffee and could finally see and think coherently.) I realized that it was pouring rain outside and freezing. I wasn't upset at all though, because it gave me the perfect opportunity to pull out my favorite sweater and pair it with the new maxi. (It's actually the only shirt I own that works with the skirt. I'm gonna have to remedy that. ;)

Currently my brain hurts because I'm working on some math stuff. Early, I made a quadruple batch of oatmeal cookies and four loaves of bread, wrapped a friend's birthday gift, and washed the car. (although I have a sneaking suspicion that as soon as I drive it down the driveway in the morning it will look just as bad as it did before. #lifeonagravelroad :) Later I will probably do laundry, play with my dog for awhile and then we're going to hang out at the river this evening. :)

How has your day been?
