Wishful Thinking: {Wardrobe} Red Skirt

My thoughts have been incessantly interrupted with billows of red, shifting swirls of crimson, episodic weaves of scarlet... I must have a red skirt. And it must be soon! Not just one, but plenty enough to wear for each day of the week!

Prim and proper for Sunday church and lunch with the family...


Very European chic noh? To be donning a full skirt and riding a bicycle...


If my legs were this long and lean, I'd be wearing this, too...


This is my favorite... a rolled up classic l/s button down with a slim skirt.


A nautical spin on the red skirt

 
Lovely outfit for lunch with friends


And it doesn't always have to be white and red; sometimes, you can be bold and throw in tangerine, too...


... or black, if that's what the mood catches you


A nice ensemble can still be nicer - if you have George Clooney beside you.:)


Join me wear a red skirt?

  1. I love red - red and white are my favorite colors! :) I treasure my 10-year-old cherry-red pants to this day! Now, I think I'll be looking for a long red skirt too!

  3. I love the short billowy red skirt with the black riding boots! Hay naku, you don't need long legs to pull off the riding boots look. Riding boots actually make your legs look longer, especially when they stop at the right length on top! Everyone here in Canada have at least one pair of long riding boots like that for fall or winter. Or else we'll freeze sa lamig! So, long boots are actually a staple in our cold-weather wardrobe, regardless of long or short legs! And I've seen many (petite) Asian girls pull this look really, really well! Ahhh...I love the punch that red delivers!

  4. I love all the photos of women you featured here especially the with George Clooney by her side ; p The second photo reminded me of some women I saw in Taiwan, they often wear skirts while riding a motorcycle. They are so chic and fashionable!
