I hope you had a great weekend!  My weekend was great even though I didn’t do anything except a kickball game earlier today (we won!).  Do you every have those weekends where you just need to take a break from everything?  I stayed home Friday and Saturday nights and caught up on sleep (and the Final Four tournament!) which is exactly what I needed.  

I bought this skirt last summer and I love it, but it sits in my closet for most of the year staring at me since I normally only wear it on 80 degree days or at the beach.  I decided to bring it out and try to make it more early spring/chilly weather appropriate by pairing it with my favorite shirt (seen here and here) and my trusty army green J. Crew jacket (since it was a little colder than anticipated…).  I probably would have worn a sand colored short boot with this, but I was a little too over eager to break out the sandals (my toes were cold for the rest of the day and I hate when my feet are cold!).  I also decided to try buttoning the collar up all the way.  What are your thoughts on that look?  I actually ended up unbuttoning the first few buttons later in the day, but it was fun to try something a little different.  Hopefully, it hits 80 before I pull this skirt out again (this week maybe!), but at least now, it won’t be so neglected in my closet.   What are some of your favorite ways to extend the life of your favorite items?

Have a great day!
