Ahhh, long weekends. Is there anything better?
As much as I wish I had made exciting plans to head up north to a cottage, or take a road trip to a nearby city, a relaxing weekend at home was just what I needed to recharge. I not only found time to relax and soak up some sun, but I managed to catch up with a couple of friends and get a whole bunch of work done. I took advantage of the weather and shot a few new looks for the blog, photographed a fun recipe post (coming soon!), and cleaned up some neglected spaces, like my makeup drawer and shelves.
One of the looks that I shot this weekend included one of my new favourite pieces: the button front skirt. Similar to off the shoulder tops and dresses, button front skirts seem to be everywhere this season! I already own a light wash denim skirt, so I’d been hunting for something in a darker wash. Do you want to know one of the other reasons I was sold on this button front skirt? Those oversized pockets. I can’t resist a couple of oversized pockets. Can you?

Such a chic look! Loving the play with different lengths. That cardigan elongates you so nicely!

Looking super chic, girl! I love those types of skirts, but I’m afraid one of the buttons is going to pop when I sit even though that is very unlikely happen! I have weird fears I guess haha! And adore those shoes!

The buttons stay in place, but the issue I find (and I have this with all skirts) is that when I sit, it sort of…moves up, if that makes sense? Still, I love it and just deal because I always have that problem.

Seriously gorgeous Chanel bag and I love how you paired it with such a classic outfit.

Haha, I was just reading your blog when I saw you comment on mine 😉 Loving the skirt with the duster cardigan, has that modern retro look if that makes sense.

Glad you got some time to relax. I love this skirt! I have one but it is a little too short for my comfort. This is a great length.

Love this outfit – the skirt is so cute but the longline cardigan is a great pairing! I like the juxtaposition of the different hemlines here!
