I was able to get away with wearing this in the winter because I literally live two houses away from the beach. I know, right? I'm one of those annoying people that strips after the sun is out for five minutes.
But still. Layering. So, yeah, I peeled off five of my eight usual layers - don't call the streak police just yet.
Anyway. I'd like to dedicate this post to this Forever 21 suspender skirt.
It's really helping me out with a couple of my primary goals as a person that wears clothes.
Here they are (in no particular order):
1. Redundancy.
Don't just wear ONE skirt. Wear two. Or five!
2. In case of emergency -- pretend to be kite.
I like to wear things that make me feel like I can float away from virtually any situation...
I've tried to pull a Mary Poppins before. It didn't quite work out.
