Visible Monday: More Sister-Love


It's been a while since I participated in Visible Monday, and the last time I was also showcasing a gift from my sister Lisa!  Well, this wonderful lady gifted me with a box of clothes she was either tired of or thought suited me better.  It was like Christmas in June!

To church on Sunday, I wore this hot pink camisole and matching floral sweater.  Earlier,I couldn't wait to wear it, but I had a problem...I wanted to wear it with a skirt, and I didn't have a skirt that would match it.

I went on the hunt for a white skirt, and you know, they're not as easy to find as you'd think!  I finally found a flowy one I liked at Marshall's for a little over 12 dollars.  (I'd also like to find a shorter white skirt to go with this as well.)


OK, thought I'd get the obligatory bathroom shot out of the way.  (I've been texting my sis a picture every time I wear one of her gifted items!)


Well, naturally I needed the right shoes for this long flowy skirt.  Visiting my daughter at the Bergner's where she works in Bloomington, IL, I found these babies on sale for 60 per cent off! Yes, that's a serious wedge...higher than it even looks in that picture...but I wore them to church Sunday and suffered no pain.


Here they are, on my tootsies.


A shot before I remembered to put my shoes back on.  Honestly, this skirt would look fine with some pretty flats, but I wanted the slightly dressier look of a wedge heel for church.


Camisole and sweater: gifted
Cuff bracelet: gifted
Skirt:  Dimri via Marshall's
Shoes: Mia via Bergner's


Another shot with the shoes.  I'm excited about this entire outfit, but I can style this skirt in so many ways this summer! I'm looking forward to it (by the way, it feels lighter-than-air on, but has a built-in slip that comes to about mid-thigh.)

I'm participating in Visible Monday, hosted by Not Dead Yet Style!  Join the fun!
