Cotton Candy Sky

14 Apr

Tonight was “date night” — quick stroll by the Ferry Building, followed by dinner and a movie. We saw the Bill Cunningham documentary which is hilarious and sad and inspiring…I highly recommend you check it out if it’s playing in your city.

I am dressing for spring, weather permitting or not (it’s not). This bold-patterned skirt instantly brightens my mood when I put it on, though! Worn as a dress here so as not to commit maxi skirt overkill, which I’ll admit I’ve been guilty of these days. Gotta keep it fresh, right? Monotony is a total snooze!

*head to toe: UO hat, layered maxi skirt c/o Volcom, Patricia Field belt, vintage, YSL, Madewell & Yurman jewels, Marni heels

Can’t believe that’s Volcom! Love it. Desperate to see the Bill Cunningham documentary as well.

Thanks so much! I got them on super-sale a couple years ago, and this is actually the first time I’ve worn them. Glad I gave ‘em a whirl – thought they’d be really tough to walk in, but not so bad! :)
