Why I love it:  These are great colours to wear at the moment and this skirt allows you to mix so many neutrals as when you look at the fabric closely it has olive, brown, cream, navy, mustard and black in the detail. I once read that if you aren't sure what colours go together, use a fabric pattern and work around the colours in that. That's exactly how this outfit came to be, from pulling items out of my cupboard that fit with this versatile skirt. Of course, I wore the cardi buttoned up at work, that sort of cleavage in the office (let's face it, especially my office) just won't do! This is the first time I'm trying the trendwe featured here in "real life" and one of my colleagues liked it so much she says she will wear it tomorrow! Score one for the trendies!! Last reason to love this outfit is this GORG cami which is silk and the loveliest thing to wear, it zips up the side but feels like PJs (and may look like undies, but I don't think I care!)
