Skirtember. Let me tell you what happened. I knew I only had so many summer-ish skirts left to wear. I knew I wanted to start going to the gym after work last week, but I knew I wouldn't be able to take a proper photo if I went straight to the gym. My nice clothes would end up in my gym bag and I'd be sweaty. It's too dark in the morning to take a picture. That's skirts being wasted. So I wore pants Monday, thinking I wouldn't be taking a picture anyway. I definitely didn't make it to the gym, of course.
I wore a skirt Tuesday.
Essentially, I carried my gym bag around all week, wearing pants all week, because I didn't plan on being home to take a picture. Silly me...I thought I'd be working out after school. I'm aware that's a stupid, odd excuse. And I didn't actually make it to the gym until Friday.
This picture should be called "triumphant" because it was a Friday afternoon.
I've had a sore throat since freaking Thursday, so the weekend was a wash too. When Scott saw me in jeans on Saturday night, he said, "I thought it was Skirtember?"
I started to feel bad. But not bad enough to go look for a skirt. We were going to a birthday dinner and, as usual, we were running late. Judge away. It's alright.
Maybe you can link up below and see what the good folks who show value and commitment were wearing in the past week.
What's Skirtember? Try to wear a skirt every day in the month of September, snap a picture, and show off your fashion choices in our weekly link-up. You can show 7 days of skirts/dresses, 5 five days, or even 1 day. Whatever you've got to share.
Guidelines 1. Try to wear a skirt or a dress as many days in September as you can. 2. Mix and match. Get creative! If you wear skirts often, re-mix what you have. If you never wear skirts, maybe check out a summer clearance sale and try a few out. When you have to think outside the box, you'd be surprised at what you come up with! 4. This is not meant to be an "all or nothing" challenge. It's a challenge to try something new and different. Forget to wear a skirt one day? Don't worry about it! 5. We'll host a link-up every Monday during September where you can showcase your skirts/dresses from the week before. 6. Link up, share the button, spread the word!
