(Forever 21 jacket & top / Local Boutique skirt / H&M belt / Nine West boots)
While many girls are sporting the maxi skirt look, I decided to take a baby step towards the trend with this below-the-knee/calf-length (??) skirt. I got it during my trip last December and it only cost me about $10 (it's fully lined, too!) ;) By the way, I received a few questions in my previous posts, so here are my answers:
1. Where did I get my glasses? Are they Raybans?
No, unfortunately they're not Raybans. They look like the real deal though, no? :) I got them in Indonesia for cheap ($50 incl. lenses).
2. For Torontonians: where's that udon place I posted last week?
It's inside the OCAD food court (Village by the Grange), called Manpuku. Just ask around :)
3. Am I going to post some progress photos during the redecoration?
I would love to, but we'll have to see about that. My place is really messy and I much prefer to share the AFTER photos than the BEFORE or DURING photos :)
4. Do I not get cold wearing skirts, tights and heels in winter?
Absolutely! Brrrr... I take pictures of my "actual outfit" (aka. no coat) on my balcony before I leave the house. It usually takes about 10 minutes before I start to shiver and having short of breath :p When it's snowing outside, I switch my heels to my snow boots then switch back to heels at work :)
Hope everyone had a great weekend!

you look amazing...
gorgeous skirt =)
Love the polka dot skirt and the pop of red with belt and ring is so refreshing.
So lovely, Kristy. I'm afraid to pull off a skirt of this length because I have big calves and think my legs are too masculine for such a delicate piece.... and I usually don't like the whole skirt with boots thing but this is styled to perfection! And for $10?! What an absolute steal. Your outfits have been extra amazing as of late... kudos to you!
Have a lovely week!

Nice styling! Love the navy pattern with the red belt. I love this skirt length...particularly in the summer with a Osiris ballet flats and a tank.

such a great skirt! i love that it's a polka, perfect with the red accents!!!
You pulled this outfit together perfectly! I'm always a sucker for polka dots and a peep of red.
If you're interested I'm giving away a tibi dress on my blog : )
This is a beautiful outfit! I love the red accent of the belt ^^ i own that belt in navy ^^ x
Great outfit, I love the mix of navy with red and the polka dots are seriously too cute!

I think the calf-length is also a flattering length. yours is so adorable in polka-dot print!
Polka dots and lace together?? yes! Beautiful look!
loving the polka and lace combi!
There's is something so classic and chic about this look! Fabulous, sweetheart! <3
Love this outfit on you!! Happy Tuesday xxx
great outfit! I imagine that length would look awkward on me though..
I always arrive to work wearing my ugly furry snow boots and then change to heels at my desk. It looks ridiculous outside, but don't give a damn. :)

Mae Lu, @ thereafterish.
Love it - especially the pop of color with the ring! Love!
I've always said that polka dots and red go hand in hand and they do! I love how you paired with lace. I will have to try that some time definitely!!!! Love this new length on you Kristy! You pull it off so well!
I love the polka dots and they look particularly cute on the cut of this skirt. Love the pop of red too.
Manpuku = best udon everrrrrr!! I love the curry.
I have an intense fear of dots, so I'm not a fan of the pattern, but the length is perfect for this cold weather we've been experiencing. Lovely red accents, doll.
Lace plus polka dot....very classy combo and the touch of red is just the perfect finish! love it.
