Great skirts

My go-to outfit recipe and ingredients to recreate on your own

Everyone needs an outfit recipe—something to throw on when you don’t know what else to wear, can’t style anything interesting, or just need your tried and true silhouette. Mine is a fabulous knee to shin-length skirt with a bateau neck top.

It’s a classic late nineties-early 00s fashion magazine editor look that’s low effort but super chic. This look applies to all seasons, works with all shoe types, and never fails me, but the key is to have fabulous skirts you can rotate in and out.
