Save or Splurge: Summer Skirts

By -

For me, the summer skirt is a major save. I'm not looking for structure, expensive materials, or even something that lasts forever. Skirts are usually an easy fit since flouncier skirts only have to fit at the waist and be a generally flattering shape for your body type.

Also, summer skirts are something I like to switch up every year. Of course, every women needs her collection of season-less, professional, classic skirts. However, inexpensive, summer skirts can be fun, trendy and a lacking a little in quality.

Where do you stand with summer skirts? Save or Splurge?

A summer skirt is a save. I have so much trouble finding shorts, so skirts are what I wear to picnics and theme parks. Those are the type of skirts I buy for $15-$25 in case they get covered with pop or torn on a ride.

I agree- save. I wear skirts almost every day of the summer, so no matter how expensive a skirt is it's not going to last more than a couple years. I'd rather buy 3 cheap skirts and have a fun selection than buy 1 expensive skirt that might last one more year.

What we looked like in 2009 Ten years ago I created, Fashion Me Fabulous, wrote up a handful of posts, picked a layout and send it all to my friend, Jael. “I’ve started a fashion blog. What do you think?” She gave me a few tips, wrote a couple “guest posts” and before long became my blogging partner. Together, we built a blog and community I could have never built alone. From the end of 2007 to the end of 2014, Fashion Me Fabulous ran regular content about fun, affordable fashion. Jael and I covered fashion week , reviewed fashion books , wrote about fashion history and did more shopping than seems humanly possible to search out the best clothes and accessories . We explored our personal styles , scoured Etsy for unique creations . I watched every single episode of Project Runway and blogged about it. Jael created an amazing presence on Polyvore . We learned all sorts of things about coding and websites and content and graphic design and so on. (You can tell if you look at ...

Dramatic Makeup

October is the perfect month for anyone who loves a dramatic look. Because of Halloween, you can get away with more in the makeup department than you can the rest of the year. You want to try false eyelashes? Go for it. You want to color your eyebrows? Do it. Color outside the lines with eyeshadow? Why not? Live it up so much in October that people will think black lipstick in November is practically normal.
