Nail Polish: A Crewed Interest by Essie
This skirt belonged to my mother. The bottom half of an 80's power suit, the top of which is also hanging in my closet, neatly nestled amid the other brown tones (yes my OCD made me color code my clothes, don't judge). I am quite sure that the designers of this particular office attire never envisioned it being styled with a black t-shirt and leather jacket, at least thirty years after it rolled off the assembly line. But here it is. Thanks to my mother's vision that classic cuts never go out of style. Good save, Mom!
P.S. While we are on the subject, my mother (who, it is important to note, is a good four inches shorter than me), couldn't resist telling me that she would wear this skirt if she was feeling "fat". Thanks for the confidence boost!
P.P.S. I'm sure I will be in trouble for posting that little anecdote.... So consider this my official apology.




Love this look - the cropped leather jacket is great! And your mom is hilarious ;) x, Kat
