Colorful Flowing Midi Skirts for Summer

Hello, and thanks for stopping by my blog today!

Summer is mad for bright festive colors!

This week I am wearing two long, flowing and vibrantly colored midi skirts

One in a floral print, the other in a solid

Both of these outfits also feature something vintage,

as I am trying to incorporate more of the things that I save

for special occasions onto my everyday wardrobe

First, a breezy chiffon skirt in a vivid pink floral 

I paired it with a sweet ivory colored blouse from the 80's

The blouse has an interesting yolk that reminds me a little bit of a cape

fluttery cap sleeves and a subtle tone on tone abstract print 

Tiny blossoms all over the skirt

More bright color in a deep pink chain handle bag with stylized bow

Wearing a mixture of vintage and new jewelry

The pink bead and faux pearl wrap bracelet is from the 1940's

and the gold tone daisy shaped earring are current

Deep pink pointed toe reptile embossed slides with bow trim

to finish this girly look 

 

My next outfit features a long, full midi skirt that has become a favorite of mine 

 I love this bright shade of blue for all seasons

 The skirt also has a much sot after detail-roomy pockets! 

It is very versatile, and I have worn it several times in different ways on the blog

Last December I wore it in a monochrome outfit with a top of the same bright blue,

and this April I paired it with a graphic print blouse

Here it is again for summer, with a short sleeve white lace blouse 

I whole lot of bright blue!

I'm carrying a yellow vinyl box shaped handle bag from the 1960's

I can just picture a carefree 60's era teenaged girl 

 with this little bag swinging from her fingertips, 

 and wearing a wild psychedelic print mini dress with long flowing hair

I love to imagine the former lives of my vintage pieces-if only they could talk! 

Other accessories include a large floral print scarf worn as a waist sash

It ties (a pun!) all of the solid blocks of color in this outfit together nicely

My silver tone jewelry includes a starfish collar necklace,

knot bracelet and shiny flower shaped stud earrings

These taupe block heels are comfortable and I choose them a lot

I think I might purchase them in a darker color for fall while the style is still available

These are called "Lipstick Pink" Impatiens

Hope everyone has a good week!
