But Gap? You know what? You've made it impossible for me to buy anything full price. So I waited, I scored a 30% off code and I ordered it in a size 6. It arrived and I loved it but was too big in the waist. I worried about sizing down because of the fun button-front gape that seems to happen with skirts, but fine. FINE. I returned and ordered a size 4 and I'm happy to report that it's perfect:
The denim is not too thick or stiff and it definitely has a little stretch too it. I just love how all-season this skirt is! I can absolutely see myself wearing it in the summer with platform sandals and in the fall and spring with bare legs and boots or mary janes.
And yeah, I wore it to work because I think it's refined enough to pass. Nobody sent me home to change, anyway.
sweater: Gap Ultrasoft v-neck
skirt: Gap Button-front denim skirt
boots: Frye Tina Campus (similar)
bag: Marc Jacobs "New Tote" (not really similar, but awesome)
necklace: Charming Charlie (similar)
Great skirt. I don't think you saw my comment from Dec 14, so I'm posting here again:
ReplyDeleteCan you take a close-up photo of the necklace you're wearing? also, where did you get it? it looks great! Love the red skirt too.
Oh, I love this skirt on you! Also, I need you to go ahead and send me those boots. You know my address.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, sorry! I tried to reply yesterday but the browser I use at home eats comments. Anyway, it's Banana Republic and it's a gold bar with a pyramid stud pattern. I'll try and get a close-up for you. It's not on the BR website anymore, but you might get lucky and find one in-store.
ReplyDeleteThanks Adrien for the follow-up on the necklace. I guess I'll go to BR and see if I can find it. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI love that skirt - I tried it on at Gap a couple of weeks ago but, like you, cannot pay full price for anything at Gap. I sent the hubs a link to the skirt as a large xmas hint. Fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteI love this skirt on you and am so happy you bought it! Yay skirt!
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, my Banana had a somewhat different version of the necklace in the sale bin - it was silver, not gold, and the bar hangs horizontally instead of vertically. If you're interested, email me!
ReplyDeleteI like the necklace you have because I'm actually looking specifically for gold, not silver, and I like a bar that hangs vertically. But thank you anyway!
ReplyDeleteI love that skirt! Unfortunately, it's sold out online in my size and I'm not sure I'll get to the store anytime soon. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteCute! I would probably never look at that twice in the store, but you're right--it's super versatile!
