What do you think of this skirt?! Tell me I'm not crazy...

[Beeyump]

I bought this skirt from Anthropologie in my lunch break today and now feel guilty about the cost (especially as...yeah, I also bought this hat ) . I have no occasion to wear it! But loved it so

How come I can't see the skirt?! Have tried on iPad and laptop :(

Love the skirt, not so fussed on the hat (but love Cat's eloquent defense of frippery). Dress is a little 'meh'.

Here?

I love the skirt but hate the hat.

There's a colourful (euphemism) character in our town who wears hats just like it.

I have just shown the skirt to DD (13). Her response was "that skirt is horrific"

I'm with her.

Thanks for the feedback

Love the hat, I hope you get great joy wearing it, am channelling Cat.

Skirt, not my thing but I wish it was, too old and too fat nowadays.

Love the dress too, if you are a petite Alexa Chung you could get away with it.

The skirt is soo pretty and has been said by almost everyone posting can easily by dressed up and down, and judging by my DP giddily screaming "want" you shouldn't keep it hidden in the wardrobe, but flaunt it every chance you get

That skirt is destined to be worn on Xmas day with heels, cashmere sweater and big blingy necklace - love it

Aaaand, just got another hat I'll stop now.

I saw that skirt last week when I was wasting time on Anthropologie website (second favourite timewaster after MN s and B). I love it. Please wear it for me. I can't as I have just bought some boots I don't need.
Wear with plain long sleeve t shirt and simple chain necklace. Or chunky not too long jumper. Or masculine tailored waistcoat (ok no idea where you buy it - e bay?) or jacket over long t shirt. No idea about shoes - like the biker boot or converse idea for everyday, but try whatever you have. Something will work.
Wear whenever - its dressing up for grown ups. Its a good thing!

Love, LOVE the skirt, love the colour and feather of the green hat but hate the bow, hate the shamrock dress, quite like the Russian hat.

All the items are of a firm style, not the same style, but firmly of their own style, IYSWIM. Do you normally wear similar clothes or are you stomping decisively down the path of something different?

Thanks bee now I have to explain to OH why i Have yet another hat....

What hat did you get?! Vicariously excited!
Yes, they are all quite different I agree - my style is just sort of 'seeing things I love and irresponsibly purchasing.'

Love the skirt and both hats. I get great wear out of my russian hat and its so cosy. The skirt would go with lots of things, something fitted on top would set off its shape better I think?
I have a similar buying style beeyump, I love falling for something in a shop and especially finding something a bit different. I am not into the idea of buying a new wardrobe for each season/year and hate dressing like others with a passion!

I bought the flapper hat. BUT it's a boomerang, I can't wear hats like that, I am not trendy enough or brave enough and I just can't keep it. I've been a mix of excited and scared of it ever since I hit the order button.

Of course you are trendy and brave enough - I do understand your hesitation though. I have made the decision to wear the hat tomorrow. I'll just be at work, then having coffee/dinner with a friend, but I'm determined to wear it. Please join me, as it were, when yours arrives!

The skirt is adorable ... but don't you have to basically be Natalie Portman to be able to wear it?!

I love cloche hats, but I'm not loving that particular one. A bit too BRG.

I love Anthropologie homeware, but find their clothes very, um, niche....

Nah, you don't have to basically be Natalie Portman to be able to wear it.

I don't think so either. That shape us quite forgiving. It's important it's the right length though ... On me a skirt like that would have to fall to knee length, any more would make me look stumpy!

My skirt has been dispatched, along with 2 hats (Lewis cloche and the gem one!). I am v excited (although my credit card has melted!!) and hope they suit me!

That's why I plan on wearing it with heels tiger. I'm an unfortunately short and stumpy size 8.

The Lewis cloche is dreamy! Please let me know how you get on with the skirt Lala. My hat is so far bearing up very well, I'm feeling quite in love...
