Skater Skirt OOTD

Skater skirts are so trendy right now and this gem has been in my closet for maybe two years, but I hardly break it out. If you can find the right length (because there are super cute ones out there that also happen to be super short) they can totally be work appropriate. This one could probably be shorter if I brought it up higher on my waist – it could very possibly be meant to be worn like that since it has such a wide elastic band, but I just keep it lower towards my hips and then it hits just above the knee.

The eye palette was a $10 (or possibly even less, I forget) find on HauteLook last year. Great array of shades, but not incredibly pigmented so you do have to work at it a little bit. Nothing too terrible.

I forgot to include my blush in the picture, but I took a picture of it with a closeup of my skirt.

The skirt has this fun detailing to it – almost like appliques made out of short threads. Bonus – the skirt has pockets! The blush is ELF Pressed Mineral Blush in Sweet Retreat.
