a red letter day
i’ve been all about the midi-skirts this winter. no matter the design or color, i’ve paired them with everything from traditional sweaters to chunky turtlenecks. they’re on trend and wear well with boots of all kinds, making them totally functional in the elements. so, if you’re looking for the perfect midi-skirt for the holidays, then i’ve got you covered.
a midi-skirt for the holidays
i’m wearing J.Crew today. (make sure to check out their 50% off sale.) my cashmere turtleneck sweater and pleated midi skirt are both from there. i’m monochromatic today, breaking up the red with a pair of white knee-highs. (similar booties here.) if you’re not a fan of red or are looking to mix and match, both the sweater and skirt come in a variety of different colors. (no surprise that i also love them in black.)

booties, boots, and more boots
what says “winter” better than “boots”. today, i’m modeling a pair of kitten heel boots, but i’ve also put together a selection of similars and variations here, here, and here. if you’re looking for other ways to style boots with a midi-skirt, make sure to check out this weekend’s post five classic winter wardrobe essentials.

Today’s post makes me think about wearing colors in the same color family, but not exactly the same shade. Another style queen, Kate Middleton, does this well too. Thanks for the tip, ladies!
That sweater’s a good color on you! I used to think I was “over” turtlenecks, and then I looked through my closet and realize I have tons of them and love them, so evidently that’s not true! What was I thinking? Look forward to your compilation of the best of the best. They all look good to me!
Lovely, as always!
Would love to see latest hair video which by the way, are you letting your hair grow out a bit? I love it 🙂
Love, love the skirt but do not like the sweater it is paired with, just my taste, I am sure. I get how you are showing how things can be paired with different textiles and all, but I just don’t care for it.
Happy Holidays to all. .
Beth, I absolutely love this outfit, how festive! The boots really set it off! Stunning!
Do you have eye floaters? Just curious how you may handle these. Thanks
