Thrifty Finds: The Midi Skirt Now with Polka Dots

I found this skirt quite some time ago while thrifting and first loved that it was pleated, then the midi length, and finally the very cool scribbled effect of the polka dots.  It was like having a traditional pattern with a twist.  I was running late, so I threw it on with a white tee one of my usual go to denim jackets, and yes some pattern mixing with my favorite leopard heels.  One last thing about the necklace, its meant to be worn longer but I clasped it to be much shorter to get a different look.  Its fun to play with your accessories that way to make them work with your outfit. ;)  Happy Wednesday everyone!

    I love how popular polka dots are for the Fall, just like stripes in the Spring.

    Very cute skirt. I've been looking for one in a similar cut. I also like the play on prints between the skirt and shoes.
