Just a simple little black and white outfit with my favorite pop of yellow!

Faux Leather Skirt
Christian Louboutin Heels

Crystal Brooch Tassel Necklace
Metallic Druzy Cuff

I’m not one to wear a lot of yellow but I do love it as an accent color.  These shoes have been a favorite since I got them and I really wouldn’t have thought yellow shoes would be all that versatile but they really are!  I wore them out with boyfriend jeans (they are from American Eagle and I love them!) to run some errands and the funny thing is, the half hour that I was at Target, I had 4 ladies stop me to tell me how much they loved my shoes!  They definitely get noticed 🙂

If you follow me on instagram, you may have already seen this but when I was in Target, I spotted these fur vests
that are SO cute.  The quality is really great and for $29.99, the
price is just right!  They have them in several colors and I could not
decide between this beige and the gray.  In the end I went with the
beige but man I really want to go back to get the gray!  I wear an XS
and the fit is true to size.

I know I keep on saying how excited I am about our new pieces but these skirts are what I’ve been most excited to share!

I got together with my occasional photographer Jen and my intern Crystal for a fun photoshoot earlier this summer and we had a blast shooting these!  I wanted to show the three different lengths and the different looks that you can wear with them and just loved how everything turned out.  We’ve been asked how we came up with these skirts and really we just love the look of these full skirts and have always wanted to create our own so on one of our trips to China where we typically sit down with our factories to work on our jewelry, we spent a few extra days looking at fabric and then came up with the design of the skirts.

It’s so exciting to be doing our second launch of skirts!  Jen and I had so much fun picking out fabrics and working on the designs of these skirts, and it’s so awesome to finally have the finished product to show you guys.  We wanted to work on skirts that would be great for the fall/holiday season.  We came up with these fancy yet so fun maxi skirts and we hope that you love them as much as we do!

I admit, I’m not much of a maxi skirt fan.  I’m very short waisted and wearing skirts like this just makes my torso look even shorter so you’ll very rarely see me in anything like this.  However when designing our own line, I really wanted to step out of my comfort zone and I’ve always loved the big full maxi skirt look so we worked on something that we loved.  Plus whenever I tried on something like this, I would have about a foot of fabric dragging on the ground so in addition to creating something we loved, we made it petite friendly too! To make it a bit more casual and (perhaps to be a little cheeky) I added our new I’m so Fancy tee to complete the look.  We also have these skirts in a shorter version, which I adore and have been wearing way too much.  I have to admit, the maxi skirt will not be worn as often but it’s still something that I think is a fab addition to anyone’s closet!

If you are petite (aka short) like me, this will fit you fabulous as we made it to fit at a bit of a shorter length than what you’d traditionally find.  I am 5’2″ and wearing 3″ heels in these photos and as you can see the length fits great. Size wise, I’m wearing the size small and I’m typically a 0 or size 25 in pants.  The waist does have a bit of stretch to it so if you think you may be between sizes, I’d size down.  Please let me know if you have questions about fit or size, I’d be happy to help!
