Skirt - ASOS; Skirt - Jacob, thrifted; Boots - Aldo; Watch - Fossil |
This skirt was a gift from my mom. Months and months ago, she called to tell me she'd found a great skirt at Value Village and was sending it to me. Now, normally when my mom thrifts items for me they aren't exactly my style; so, you can imagine my surprise when weeks later this wool beauty from Jacob arrived in my mailbox - well done mom!
Sadly, it's been sitting in my closet since that fateful day. The hem needed repairing and I was just too lazy to get my act together enough to get black thread and a needle from my sewing box. That is, until two weekends ago. I was sitting at home watching a trio of chick flicks on W when I was suddenly inspired to once and for all cross fixing this skirt off my to do list (and we all know how much I love crossing things off a to do list). Within ten minutes the job was done.
Since then I've worn this skirt twice, and could kick myself that I didn't fix it sooner. Why did I let this wonderful piece sit neglected in my closet for so long!?
I don't think I'll have trouble making up for it this winter; I have a very good feeling this skirt will be in heavy rotation all season long.

I have the same issue when I buy pants. They sit in my closet for weeks before I send it to the tailor!
