Shop this skirt HERE on Sunday, June 23rd

As you can probably guess, I’m a huge fan of all things girly… Flowy, check. Twirly, check. Bows, check. Pleats, check. Fun, feminine skirts, double checks! I started making these double bow skirts a little over a year ago when I couldn’t find a certain look that I had envisioned. I wanted the bows to be structured, boxy, over-sized and rather unique compared to the typical princess bows that’s pinched in the middle (like these).

A few tries later and this was what I came up with and I’ve been in love ever since! I’m so excited that I’ll be able to share one of my favorite creations when my online store launches this Sunday! It has been a long, sleepless and hectic process getting a small business up and running but it’s all worth it knowing I can share what I love.

The available colors for purchase will be red, pink and purple. I’m excited and hope you will love these as much as I do!

Please note: the length of the skirt I’m wearing is 16 inches but the ones available for purchase will be as follow: Size Small and Medium – 17″ long. Size Large – 18″ long.

If you have a certain color that you love, please leave let me know in the comment below!

Remember those Hervé Léger (and various affordable versions) bandage dresses and skirts that were seen all over the internet, runways, and on celebrities a few years ago? It’s been 3 years and I’m still seeing these bandage styles in stores. The slim fitting trend that hugs a woman’s curves and shows off a feminine silhouette was a staple in fashion then and I think it’s quietly trying to make a comeback.

To be honest, I’m not usually a fan of trends that’s over done to death (ah hem: Zara skorts), but these bandage styles are so sleek, sexy and a classic that has proven to last the test of the fashion trend life span.

I’m loving this nude skirt I had on when paired with white for a clean and fresh summer look, but I’m also loving all the bright colors and prints as well!

If there’s one thing I love, it’s a good print, but this summer, it’s not stripes, polka dots or leopard that has me swooning, it’s fruit prints! Ok, I’m totally bullsh*ting because I love all of those prints above, but there’s something so much sweeter about fruit prints that can add a fun squeeze of whimsy zest to any basic look! So you see, fruits are not just for eating but they are also great for wearing as well! :)

Here are some of my favorites! What do you think about fruit prints?
