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!

The beauty of leopard print is that they can elevate any ensemble from simple to chic and any pairing seems to work well with this universally flattering trend. Not to mention, leopard always makes me feel a little extra confident. That’s probably why I can’t seem to get enough of this print. I don’t really have any rules when it comes to style and self expression, but I prefer to wear one leopard print at a time. Which means, it’s either a pair of shoes, a dress, skirt, top, a bag, well you get the idea.

Speaking of bags, I have been searching for the perfect leopard print bag forever and this DVF beauty is just that. Well, she does have some minor drawbacks, such as she’s not very structured (which I preferred) and the flaps would periodically pop off the hinge, but overall I’m pretty happy with the size, shape, style and the print is just so beautiful. I guess this is when you have to decide if the pros outweigh the cons right? :)

Wore this outfit on date night with Nate last Friday to the movies and I love that it’s comfortable yet a little sexy at the same time.

When I’m not in the mood to get dressed up, these are my go-to jeans because it’s so comfortable yet I can still add a little something extra to the outfit with the right pairings. I love the tight fitting crop top because it’s perfect for balancing out the over-sized bottoms and a pair of heels adds a sexy vibe. By the way, we saw Fast & Furious. It was surprisingly good and worth seeing if you’re looking for a summer action flick with a bit of muscles thrown in. :) There are so many movies that I have to see this June. A few of my must-see are Man of Steel (drooling), World War Z and White House Down. Do you have a favorite? Hope you had a lovely weekend!
