I never really thought I was much of a "skirt girl." I've always been way more into dresses, and a lot of the time, I'd rather pay a little bit extra to have a full outfit, rather than half of one. But I have to give credit to my blogging besties, especially Ashley, for making me into a skirt convert! I am now very pro-skirt... especially with a skirt as special as this one!
I've added a few skirts to my wardrobe over the past few months, but I think this fetish print skirt has to be my favorite. I love that it's subtly naughty, and the length is great for my 5'7" frame (plus: pockets!). Because Ashley and I both own this awesome Darling Dames skirt (and I think we both qualify as darling dames, ourselves), we decided we'd do a double styling of it today on our blogs! If Ashley and I can't be in the same place, at least we can have matching outfits! ;)
I actually wore this outfit for the press night of a burlesque comedy show, Princess Wendy's Late Nite Tease Room, during the Fringe Festival last month. (I wore my PUG burlesque print dress another night – Fringe gives me the chance to wear my kookiest stuff!) It's a little bit sexy and a little bit spooky, yet totally covered up and approachable, so it was a no-brainer for a weird + wild work event. I've worn this skirt a few times since, which means that it's a surprisingly versatile piece for me. I love how Ashley styled the skirt – it shows how well it can work for a daytime look as well as an evening one. You can see more of Ashley's photos and find her outfit details over at Southern (California) Belle.

You both look awesome in this skirt! I'm a big fan of dresses AND skirts so I have a lot of both but always lack in versatile tops in my wardrobe. I like how you paired the black tank top and bolero here. And those flats are super cute!
