I've returned from an unexpected blogging break. If you follow me on Instagram, I mentioned that I had been a bit overwhelmed with a fun but busy week. Bianca and I enjoyed a day at Disneyland, Kevin and I went to see Muse, we attended a fancy holiday party, and I worked a few shifts. As much as I love to keep up with my posts here, sometimes it's necessary to step away and enjoy the life I have offline. After almost five years of blogging, I felt like a week away was much deserved!

I'm now a proud owner of this faux leather Deadly Curves skirt. I'll be honest, I wasn't crazy about it at first. But once you get it on you never want to take it off! It's extremely fitted but feels comfortable when you wear it. As someone with almost a 15 inch difference between my waist and hips, it can be difficult to find a wiggle skirt that actually fits off the hanger. I went with the larger of the sizes I tend to be in between for the perfect fit, so I'd say that it tends to run a bit small. I'm planning on wearing this skirt for my birthday (which just happens to be this week)!
I'm super excited to spend this week with my family. My mom and siblings have all moved away in the last year, so I really appreciate the times we actually have together. I'm guessing there's going to be lots of laughs, pajama parties, and delicious food in my future!

Oh my, you're quite the vixen in that outfit! Quite a departure from your usual sweet and pretty look. I bet that skirt makes you feel like a million dollars. I love Muse too, I have seen them at festivals here in the UK.
ReplyDeleteWe all need a break every now and again - I just had a week off blogging too, too much to fit in before Christmas!

ReplyDeleteA little break is much deserved. I am skeptical about this skirt, and I don't have the courage to wear something like this but it looks amazing on all who I've seen it on! Sexy and classy.
ReplyDeleteGreat outfit on you. As a fellow blogger, I can understand the need to take a break. Sometimes it's hard to feed the beast that is a blog.
ReplyDeleteVery striking! I'd be scared of that skirt but you pull it off so well!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous outfit! Enjoy that family time!
ReplyDeleteSometimes it's hard for me to find pencil skirts that fit because my waist to hip ratio is ridiculously small - like 8 inches if that. I guess we all have skirt struggles! But I absolutely love love love this skirt. It looks amazing on you! Especially with that fun striped top. Such a perfect look.
