Polar Bears & Snow Cones

Happy Sunday! (^_^)v Today, I'm showcasing a
red tulip skirt that I received from my sponsor, Persunmall. It retails for $30 and it is my first and only plain red skirt. o_O I don't know why this is the case, but it is what it is. Haha. I want a knee length red skirt, but I just haven't found one I like, yet.

Anyway, the material of this skirt is thick, but not heavy. The quality appears to be pretty good and I like the dramatic pleat details. It truly is a "bubble" skirt. The hem is snug at the hips and it flares out much like a tulip. It's really cute! I peeled away the layers to show off the full skirt in the bottom photo. ^_^

It was soooooo cold when I took these. I just tried to shake it off, but make no mistake, my limbs were pretty numb. Haha. Stupid wind! It actually felt really nice in the direct sunlight, but the biting winds cancelled out much of the warmth.  >_< At any rate, my torso was pretty nice and toasty since I was wearing a sweater and a hoodie underneath my black jacket. I got the rad hoodie from Threadless and it's one of my favorites. I love how the design makes the zipper act like mercury in a thermometer.

Did you know jumping is a really good way to stay warm? Haha. I totally approve. ^_^ <3

Here are some better views of the skirt. I forgot to mention that it has pockets! Pretty sweet! :D I think the skirt looks best without layers over it, so Spring/Summer is probably a better time to wear it. The tulip design and pleats really deserve to be seen! It was just sooo cold, I couldn't help the layering.


Oh and you can see my cute sheep sweater, too. ^_^ I got it from a lovely girl in my clothing swap group. This is my first time wearing it. I'm trying to get into animal prints. So far, I have this sheep and a wolf and...that's it. Heh.
I'm picky about this sort of thing, I guess. I really want a unicorn, though! :D

Haha, jump around :D I freakin hate wind, it messes up the hair and makes me want to stay at home forever!
Love the new purchase from Persunmall, the tulip is such a cute shape. And of course the hoodie is a lot of fun :D But my all time favorite in here is your awesome hat :P

You are seriously the cutest thing ever. I love everything about the outfit -- the bubble skirt, the cheeky sweatshirt, the adorable hat. Everything. Bravo! :D

also, biting winds suck. That is all.

also, do you have a lookbook? I just made one and it's mad confusing, but if you have one I would love to fan you and share all your goodness with the rest of the fashion world. :D


love,

What a fun hoodie! Love it! And as a European I have no idea why Fahrenheit thought 32 degrees is where water freezes :) I vote for the left side of the hoodie :) And you look sooo happy here! <3

Oh gosh, reading about your cold weather makes me green with envy. I love bundling up and feeling the chilly air on my face. I guess I'm weird because I should appreciate that we barely get cold weather, haha. I absolutely love every piece you're wearing, though. The red skirt is so adorable. I've never seen anything like it!

Anna,
You know, I have been wanting this exact skirt for a while now, and it's in one of my carts now. :) I really wanted to see it on someone and it looks great on you! Can you tell me if you ordered your normal size, or does it run small or big? Just curious because I am really considering ordering it as I need a red skirt or red pants. Hope you are having a good week dear!

Hey, there! ^_^ I bought a Medium which is a US 6. I should have gotten a Small, though. It's roomy in the waist area on me, but it's meant to be worn above the hips, so it's fine. <3 I like that I can tuck fairly thick sweaters into it without any issues. I think a Small will fit you great! From your photos, it seems like you have a much smaller frame compared to me. :D

What a cute outfit! Adorable sweater and hoodie. And I love the red skirt for a bit of colour. Also, I've been doing the same thing lately. My legs and 3/4 of my arms are usually freezing, but my torso is fine! Guess it'll take a bit to used to the cold again.

The jumping is definitely an epic win! This outfit is very young, playful, and quirky. I would without a doubt wear this for myself. I think it's important for clothes to be transitionable - they can work in a casual outfit and a going out outfit. That the skirt has pockets is even better! :)
