Stripe It Lucky Skirt

Hello and happy Friday!  Today I want to share with you a simple but wonderfully versatile summer outfit.  Stripes are all the rage this summer, and this pretty little skirt is the "Stripe It Lucky" skirt from Modcloth.  I saw this skirt on Annie from Stylish Petite a few weeks ago, and got super excited because a-line flared skirts are the best fit for my hourglass shape.  Imagine how happy I was when my skirt arrived and the elastic waist made it fit perfectly!

For this outfit, I paired the "Stripe It Lucky" skirt with a fitted black tee, skinny neutral belt, flats, and bag.  This combination can be worn pretty much anywhere for work or play this summer because it is both stylish and comfortable.  I could also just as easily add heels and a dressier top for dinner or a night out.
