I would so wear this. And so would my casually elegant daughter.

The Space Between My Peers
a conversation about life and style
I would happily wear the jacket and blouse. The skirt, not so much.
That must be my “sporty/casual/functional” part. I love that the skirt has the shiny band at the hem, it makes it perfect for the type 8 figure. It even looks like the cargo pockets would camouflage, rather than high-light, saddlebags.
I don’t know that I would have thought to wear dark tights with those colors, but the way it’s done, it really works!
See, this is why you are much smarter than me. I didn’t like that band around the bottom. I am a little curvy and it seems that would sort of emphasize that.
I don’t know that I would say I was smarter than you, Jennifer. Wendy didn’t like the skirt either. It’s fun that we think differently, how boring it would be if we all liked the same things.
I don’t like the big cargo pockets on the skirt.

I’m with Jody…not so much liking the cargo pockets. I really like brown jackets, and that one is adorable.
Boy am I glad that you people will all still like me, even if we don’t like the same clothes. I am so totally out-numbered! No one here at home likes the skirt either, not even casual-elegant.
I’m happy to report, I still like it!
Rebecca, if we all liked exactly the same things it would be a boring world!!
The band around the bottom of the skirt is beautiful, but it must hit exactly right, or walking and stair climbing becomes a huge issue. Being short, and particularly short in the leg, it would hit me on the calves.
On me cargo pockets just don’t work. I like them on others. I have a friend who tried on the same silk cargos I did … she looked great, I looked ridiculous. She is two inches taller, but significantly longer in the leg.
To be honest, I hadn’t considered stair-climbing.
And I have never been able to get cargo pockets to work, either. However, if I ever had the opportunity to try this one, I would. Just to see if it, on the off chance, it worked.
It is amusing to try on things with a friend like that! 🙂
I love the outfit, even the cargo skirt, haha! I don’t like the model’s hair and makeup :p
Thanks Moi! (I don’t care for the hair and makeup either.)
And now, a little over a year later … I still like it!
