The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book: Skirts

the good buy good bye book: skirts

It’s time to show your skirt!

Shelbee of Shelbee On the Edge and myself started this series after we had hosted The Bad Buy Book for a year. Now we are ready for a new challenge! Every 15th of the month we show our Good Buy or Good-Bye item. And we want you to join!

What is The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book about?

It is a collage of outfits! You can choose yourself whether you want to show a Good Buy (which is an item you are really exited about) or a Good-Bye ( which is an item you are going to say good bye to). We will keep buying a Bad Buy from now and then, you know, it was so cheap, you were in a hurry and really wanted(needed) to buy something etc. But of course we also have those purchases that can make us so very happy. A piece of clothing that you have had for years and that you also wear a lot. Or something you bought on a holiday, and every time you wear it you get that holiday feeling back. Every month you can choose which item you want to send in. A Good Buy or a Good-Bye. We will provide a theme for each month!

So let’s start with The GoodBuy/Good-Bye Book: skirts

First my dear blogging friend and co-host Shelbee of Shelbee on the Edgethe good buy good bye book: skirts fashion blogger in striped skirt

This brightly colored striped midi skirt is probably not the best buy in my closet. I snagged it a few years ago on super duper clearance from Cato Fashions in an attempt to add some more vibrant colors to my wardrobe. I wore it twice on the blog for different posts but never wore it other than that. It is just not me and I don’t feel very comfortable in it. If I saw it on someone else, I would love it. But it simply is not my style. Once I get ‘round to cleaning out my closet, I will probably say good-bye to this skirt.

This skirt was a Good Buy. Then I washed it. Now it’s a Good Bye.

This black denim skirt a definite Good Buy from Loft can do so much with it.

Technically it’s not a good buy in that I made it…ha ha. But I did buy the yarn!!!  And I love it with my OTK boots. It’s the perfect reason to wear shorter skirts!!

This is Sonja of BeautySoMe Grey long skirt

This lovely semi transparent skirt was one of my favorites, but it is a small size and I had to give it away, 24 pounds didn’t fit!

After the mini Punk skirt I wanted a more decent one, so I bought a skirt that had a longer fit. More me, more skirt…

And finally my skirtCanadian toxedo on me

This was one of my favorite skirts, but it is to small now, I had it for years. But I bought a new denim pencil skirt! Soon on the blog!

May’s theme will be: Polk Dots!

      That is a bit more challenging for me then skirts!

    These are all lovely skirts! I’ve done the wrong washing cycle and ruined clothes before, it’s the worst feeling!

    Hope you are having a nice start to your week! It’s another busy one here!

    The weekday wear linkup is live on my blog, I’d love you to join! 🙂

    You have encouraged me to buy and wear knee length skirts for every day again. Just purchased two denim skirts and am enjoying the look. Thanks.

    I’m loving that denim pencil skirt. Such a shame it’s too small now. Can’t wait to see your new one! I’ve been looking for a decent denim skirt for a long time, but it’s got to be just so, I’m very particular 😉 xxx

    You always wear a pencil skirt with such style. I am looking forward to seeing the denim skirt on the blog.
    Jodie’s skirt it’s fabulous also and the striped midi skirt that Shelbee is wearing is beautiful.,

      Thanks Elle! I don’t think there are many skirts that I don’t like!

    I really like pencil skirts but feel so self conscious in them. No matter what size I buy, they wind up feeling restrictive and a little like a straight jacket around the hips. I have a new skirt coming from Loft Outlet that I hope will be a good buy. Keep your fingers crossed!
