Chels Wears: Skirts in the Snow

Skirt: Thrift Shop | Shoes: Kmart | Shirt: JCPenney | Jacket: Deb | Scarf: WalMart
Oh look, guys, I'm not properly dressed for the temperature again. Imagine that. I just hate snow too much to let it ruin my fashion plans, though I wish my legs weren't so white, holy cow. It was actually fairly "warm" when we took these photos. Like 25 degrees or something that felt decently warm. Erie is a confusing place to live around this time.

This is the first time this skirt has ever made an appearance. Well, that's not totally true. I got it at a thrift shop back home over a year ago and it (along with one other) have been hanging in my closet waiting to be worn by me since. I'm just not normally a midi skirt kind of person. I'm usually maxi or mini so this length has been a weird one for me to decide to wear. But I'm thinking I like it! I'll have to pull out that other thrift shop skirt that I got with this one because I'm really liking this look and I really am surprised by that. I wore this on Sunday to church. I really only decided to go with this skirt at the last minute because I didn't feel like wearing tights and didn't want to wear a maxi. (I always wear a skirt or dress to church, I feel weird when I don't.) So this skirt was the winner...long enough to not really need tights and short enough to not be considered a maxi. Maybe it's time to embrace the midi?

What's your favorite skirt length?

    I don't know how you do it- snow + bare legs! Anything under 50 degrees and the tights are coming on. Under 45 and leggings for sure (fleece lined ones today :). I think you should wear midi skirts more often! It's super flattering on you and you styled it perfectly! I've always wanted to try one on, but now that I think of it, I've never even found one any where. Also, I always wear a skirt or dress to church too!

    Brrrrr.... I got cold just looking at your bare legs. I couldn't do it. If my ankles get cold my whole body freezes and the only way I can warm up is to take a hot shower. haha! I'm a big ole sissy! That's what that means! lol You look really great tho! That bright blue scarf looks really great on you with your skin tone.

    I love this length on you. I have a few midi skirts myself, and I rarely wear them...you've inspired me to pull them out!

    My husband's cousin lives in Erie! You guys really got crunched with some snow towards the end of 2014. I saw some pictures. I don't even know how I would handle that! haha! And we are only a few hours south of Erie.
