in a moment that i like to blame on a lack of morning coffee, i left the joe fresh store a few weeks ago with two different pairs of denim shorts. it was as though all their cute styles and fabrics overwhelmed me into a state of pure shopping confusion. once home, i realized what a mistake i’d made and set out to exchange one of the pairs of shorts for something else. all meant to be of course, because upon returning to the store, they’d just received a shipment of beautiful maxi skirts. i’d been looking for a cozy maxi to wear around on casual summer days and the bold stripe was a total bonus. also sold me on the fact that i had to size down (almost an instant buy) and that this skirt was only $19. and i may or may not have also purchased it in a solid grey colour. because i have a problem. but seriously joe fresh, you rock!
I saw that skirt, and I was too intimidated to pick it up. I have this nagging thing about needing to lose 5 pounds before I wear a skirt like that – dang it! I should have picked it up. You look awesome in it! 🙂

I bought this skirt too – it's amazing! I love how you styled it and have to agree, part of the appeal of the skirt was that I got to buy it in a smaller size than I normally wear!
great outfit. blacks and whites (and greys) are my fav. Love the pops of colour
Ha ha – we must be psychically connected. I got your comment on my blog literally as I opened the window on this post! LOL. We make me laugh 🙂 On a fashion-related note, though, I am loving that Joe Fresh maxi. I keep seeing amazing pieces from Joe Fresh lately and you know how I feel about stripes. I'm trying to decide if this all means that I should go to Joe Fresh immediately… or stay far, far away!
xox,
Cee
So this is a recent purchase, yes? I have totally been looking for a striped maxi… want want want! Love how you paired it with the rope belt.
xo, alison*elle
oh Alicia, that striped skirt is something else! i LOVE the whole look on you, especially with the nautical inspiration through the rope belt. this outfit has the exact right amount of bold attitude with pretty summer casualness. suh-weet stuff!
i get tingles whenever i walk into joe fresh, i tend to go overwhelmingly mental in there. i hear that, glad you got the replacement, fab choice lades. happy mid-week! ♥
Love the way that you pulled this together! Especially love the belt on the skirt, cute cute cute!

Cute skirt…. I'm headed to Joe Fresh tomorrow to shop for baby clothes for a friend's kid. And perhaps for me too…Joe has amazing thngs and fabulous prices

I SO wanted this skirt but it sold out so quickly at our store! Hoping for a restock or a return! 😉 It's sooo cute on you! I love the way you styled it!
Going back to Joe Fresh to do an exchange was a good call–it sounds like you ended up with two skirts you're going to love!
Hi!
I've just discovered your blog! I have to say that your hair is really nice, I want it!
You have a new reader 🙂
P.S: I really like your style.
Kisses from spain.
Love the skirt and the belt!
My goodness, I must go to the nearest Superstore and pick up this Joe Fresh maxi skirt! I have a number of maxi dresses but no skirts and have been looking for a good one. You can't beat $19 and yay for sizing down! Love the way you paired the striped skirt with a rope belt and red cardie for a nautical feel.

Love the maxi skirt!! It looks so good with the red cardigan. I've bought a couple of maxi dresses for the summer and am just waiting for the weather to wear them! I should have gotten some skirts because they look better with layers added for warmth. Lesson learned 🙂
I love your paring of the strips with the bold red and solid black.
loving the red with the stripes. It's like a lovely nautical outfit.
