One skirt, two ways: Fuchsia fever!

Apparently, the full skirt trend has no signs of slowing down. In almost all fast fashion chains, you can still find different incarnations of the trend.

One of my favorites is this full fuchsia skirt from Forever 21. (Gosh! So many "F" words in one sentence.) It caught my eye because of the striking color and the material that allows the fluffiness to retain its shape.

A skirt like this is so versatile, there are so many ways to wear it. It'll look great with a crisp, button down shirt. a bustier, a graphic tee - the options are limitless.

But let me narrow it down to two.

First, pair it with a streamlined top with the same shade.


This cropped top has a nice shape - round neck, sleeveless, and with cutouts on the side. Pairing it with the skirt makes it look like one whole dress.


Second, team it up with a lady-like blouse.


This silk number has an interesting, mock-turtleneck shape, but executed in a soft, silky fabric. This provides a perfect foil to the structure of the skirt. The combination gives it a lady-like look to it.


These 2 looks will definitely fit my 2 sisters!
