SOW: Annie Damask Dot!

This week's SOW is the Annie Damask Dot!

Enjoy 20% off of this lightweight cotton skirt this week only!  This is a faux damask.  A true damask is a fabric that has a pattern by the way that its woven together.  We call this a damask because of the way it looks.  Most damasks are too thick to wear in the summer which makes this skirt so special.  You can wear this skirt spring through fall.  I chose this as the SOW this week due to the amazing colors you have to work with.  You can wear bright, light and any color green in between.  You can also wear coral, yellow, white and brown if you want to match this dead on.  Otherwise, you can choose colors that aren't even in the skirt such as fuchsia and it will still work with this skirt.  Below you can see how I paired this skirt.  I have a few options for you...

Yellow and coral match this skirt dead on.  You can see how the fushcia fits right in with this look regardless of not being in the skirt

I am a huge fan of jean jackets.  Lucky for me, they're in!  Top this look off with a jean jacket, colorful or neutral sandals and you are ready for your day!

P.S. I love this skirt in a swing!  It drapes really well.

SOW: Gingham Silver Sequins

This weeks SOW has some sparkle to it, and I'm not just talking about the 20% discount ;)  The Gingham Silver Sequins is a lightweight cotton white and gray gingham printed skirt with silver sequins sewn to it, giving it some extra flair.  The skirt is lined in all white cotton, making this your next go-to summer skirt, perfect for work and play.

So what to wear with the Silver Sequins?  EASY!  Treat this skirt as you would any black skirt or black pant you own.  Summer time is not the time to wear solid black, so swap that out for this gingham number.  Below I have three different looks for three separate occasions.  Top right: Picnic/cookout.   Left: Work/Dinner on the town.  Bottom: Classic black.

Gingham Silver by christinapostell featuring Stella & Dot bracelets

I used my new favorite jewelry company, Stella & Dot, to adorn these outfits.  My top right look is perfect for a picnic.  Black just won't do at a picnic so go more rustic with brown.  The silver on the bracelet ties in with the silver on the skirt.  The brown leather goes with the sandals and the coral sandals bring the top into the mix.  Precious!

To the left I have the perfect work outfit.  Purple looks dynamite with gray.  It is my favorite color combo so be sure to try it this season!

Below, you can't go wrong with classic black and silver.  This clean look will have you looking effortlessly put together!
