So in this part two of my capsule wardrobe, I am sharing outfits with my number 1 skirt, my yellow floral skirt!
I think that this skirt can transcends the seasons thanks to the colors of the flowers with the burgundies, purples and dark greens. Since I was limited on time this past week and weekend with many appointments and a very busy weekend, I am using pictures from my prior post dedicated to this skirt as well as some pictures I was able to take on Sunday.
Purple tee and booties
Using a darker color on top helps transition a look to fall. I do love this tee with the detail on the sleeves and adding the denim jacket for extra warmth is a no brainer.
Striped tee
Now of course for this wardrobe I would not be wearing these sandals but the booties and either the denim jacket or the burgundy jacket would work well with this striped shirt.
Black or grey tank and denim jacket
I really like the tan booties with this skirt so I did not even try the blush sneakers with it. When fall is cool but not cold in Georgia, wearing a tank instead of a tee under a jacket allows one to not get too hot. I added the scarf for some more visual interest and pattern mixing.
Black or grey tank and burgundy jacket
This is the same look as above with the different jacket. I like the shorter length of the denim jacket with this skirt so after trying the burgundy jacket, I decided that zipping it looked much better than open.
As you can see from this post, while this skirt is quite colorful, it does lend itself to making several different outfit combinations. Depending on the weather, the first 2 outfits would be appropriate for a fall day without the jackets and on cooler days the jackets would add warmth and create more outifts. Your capsule wardrobe does not have to be boring, you just need to think of items that work well together!

Oh it’s a very beautiful skirt! It would be great to wear a sweater on it too! Have a great day!

That’s a great idea, Nancy! Might look for a chunky sweater that would work when I go thrifting tomorrow!

Oh, love this skirt. The colors are beautiful and it looks so good on you with the tucked in tops, creates a grade silhouette.
mimifce
Thank you! I don’t tuck many things in but I have several higher waisted skirts that just look much better with the tops tucked in! Always tuck my tanks in this one!

This is such a pretty skirt. I’m glad you’re taking advantage of extending its style life. I wonder if it would even work with tights, or that would be too much.

If I owned tights, it probably could work!
