In The Thick Of It

Lace and Tulle for the New Year

First of all - HAPPY NEW YEAR my dear readers!  InTheThickofIt has grown like CRAZY this year.  Thank you as always for the continued support and love.

Since moving in with S, I have really had to edit my closet as I have much less space than in my old place.  I started to feel like I was wearing the same 10 things over and over again - and while there’s absolutely nothing wrong with that, I just started to feel like I was in a bit of a rut on many levels.  So on new year’s eve, I decided to do a little shopping for some new outfits.  

I’ve been looking for a new skirt and this sweet layered skirt from forever 21+ just called my name. It’s 3 layers - a black fitted layer with a layer of cream lace and then topped with a light pink tulle.  It’s a little bit ballerina a little bit figure skater, which is why i was determined to toughen the look up a bit with my cropped striped sweater from H&M and my studded leather jacket.  It’s a great look for a snowy winter january day, don’t you think?
