For Fathers Day, I wanted to be comfortable and yet cute so I came up with this! I'm seriously crushing on this skirt. I saw that it went on sale this past Tuesday and I'm totally out of my price adjustment period - something that usually makes me sad. However, not with this skirt! Since I bought it in early May, I've worn it at least 5 times and I feel amazing in it every. single. time. Even Hubby likes it which is unusual enough in itself, but even more so because when I first bought it, he really didn't like it.
Aside from the great fit, I adore all the colors in the skirt. I mean really, is there any color that wouldn't go with this skirt? I think not!
So, I know you're thinking that if I wear this skirt so much, what's my neglected pieces for Operation Utilize? Well, first, this top. I bought it on highly discounted at Target a while ago but haven't worn it much because I'm not really a green person. I own several shades and really like olive shades, but it's just not a color that I reach for. But, I'm loving how it looks with this skirt! I feel like it compliments the skirt while still allowing the skirt to be the star. The other star - and the other neglected item - is this necklace.
I bought it at Forever 21 a while ago because I loved the bright coral color but I honestly have only worn it once or twice before. As I was wearing it this day, I got a ton of compliments on it, so I think it'll definitely have to come out more often!

The neglected piece in this outfit is definitely the dress. I bought this dress about a year ago and have only worn it maybe 2 or 3 times. You can't tell here (at least I hope not), but without a belt, seriously looks one like huge sack. It has no shape whatsoever. And, it's a little short on me. I knew all this before I bought it but I loved the colors and pattern. Plus, it's silk and I got a good deal on it so I bought it anyway and figured I'd make it work. I think I need to buy a slip to wear underneath it, a la Anthromollogies. Anyway, the times that I've worn it before, I paired it with red accents (as I like to do with everything!) so I thought I'd switch it up this time and go with yellow ... and I really like how it came out!
I actually almost wore yellow shoes too but I thought I'd step out of my comfort zone and go less "matchy-matchy" (as Midory would say). So, I decided on grey shoes. I seriously adore these shoes. I almost didn't buy them but I'm oh so glad that I did. I mean really, who can resist these adorable big bows?
I'm getting closer to being caught up! I hope you're enjoying all Operation Utilize outfits so far. I know I am!

You are so cute! I love that skirt on you-- so flattering and the colors are really pretty. I also think that yellow and blue color combination in the second outfit is gorgeous!
I love your skirt! I remember it's the one you wore to the meetup and everyone really liked it and a few purchased it, too! The combo that you chose gives a very comfy casual vibe. Also really liking the yellow and grey combo with your silk dress--the bows on the shoes are so cute!
I love the Anthro skirt in the first photo! It's like the Goldfield Skirt and I might have to go check it out being that it's on sale now.
