Always the hillbilly

Sweater: Target // Skirt: LOFT // Jeggings/Boots: JCP // Scarf: gift 

I wore "denim" tights with a black pencil skirt.  I am a hillbilly.

Black pencil skirts are meant for nylons, real tights, and/or some high heels.

The reason I didn't wear my black leggings is because I don't like them.  I really like my brown ones.  But brown leggings with a black skirt?  I could practically see my mother cringing.

I bought the skirt in August.  This was the first time I've worn it...simply because I didn't know what to wear under it (my problems, they are many).

Oh, I don't like my black boots either.  Real shoes are out of the question, as you can tell by (very closely) examining that picture up there.

The story of the earrings.

I told Scott I wanted some more Tiffany.  He laughed.  Hmmm...I wasn't trying to be funny.

Ooh I am loving this outfit! I think this is one of your best to date. Super cute. If you don't want the boots you can ship them to me! Haha. Men are funny when you tell them things you want. Silly boys.

I have the exact same problem with skirts and dresses...figuring out what to wear under them. Because God forbid Sitka ever be warm enough to have bare legs.

I love that skirt. It matters not that you had those leggings on with a black skirt. You are still the best dressed woman in all of Alaska.

I feel ya on not wanting to do brown with black. Maybe if you could find some nice light grey or charcoal leggings? Or even some fun patterned tights. :)

Lin said...

Cute outfit! You know, navy tights & black skirt and all haha.

wish we had some of your snow! in atlanta, we get tornadoes instead!

I have a similar type of black pencil skirt--to me, that skirt screams to be worn with fuchsia or turquoise or purple or otherwise bright tights. But that's just the kind of hairpin I am. I think the denim ones look great with it, too!

Annie said...

OK I'm totally thinking I need some denim tights now - they look so cute with that outfit! Love this cozy look :)
