Fall Wish-list Item # 1: A Pleated Skirt

Fall officially begins tomorrow and I couldn’t be happier! I've already started writing down my Fall must-haves list. I’ll share with you ladies once it’s completed. My goal is to purchase only items from this list =) The first item on my Fall wish-list is a pleated skirt. I've seen many lovely bloggers rocking pleated skirts lately and been on the hunt for one. I found this skirt at Forever 21 last month and absolutely adore. This skirt fits me perfectly in every way. Nothing screams Fall like leopard print, right?






What I am wearing:
Skirt: F21 pleated skirt - size XS (buy similar here or shorter version)
Ruffled tank: unknown brand - really old (similar here or here)
Belt: Ann Taylor perfect skinny belt (buy here in coral)
Purse: Chanel small flap (buy similar here)
Shoes: Naturalizer c/o Vicky (thank you so much!)
(buy similar here - available in size 5.5)





Readers, what's on your Fall wish-list?

This is beautiful. I love your hair. : ) Very wise of you to make a fall list and only purchase from that list. It takes a lot of willpower to resist sales that aren't on your list, but I know you can do it!!

Oh my, love this skirt! I have to go hunt it down. I love how you put the outfit together - black + white with a hint of burgundy. I'm glad the shoes fit you. :)

@Vicky Thanks again for those shoes, Vicky! It was very generous of you =)

Jean said...

I remember this lovely skirt! I really like Vicky's vintage-esque shoes matching with your belt. Burgandy is such a rich color for the Fall season. I like your approach to buy only items on your wishlist, and I can't wait to see what else is on there. I'm not so organized nor disciplined with my shopping...sometimes I don't know what's on my wishlist until I see it at the store ; )

Oh yes, this skirt looks perfect on you :) Actually haven't seen any pleated leopard-printed skirts yet.

Great find Sydney. You look lovely in this outfit, nice pairing with a Chanel bag. The color combo is just perfect. That skirt is beautiful, why didn't i spot it? Gotta stop going to F21..haha.

I am currently hunting down two pairs of boot. A casual pair in brown and a dressy pair in black. What a great idea to stick to the list, I probably fail and buy craps i dont have to have but that is not new :D

I found a mustard color skirt in F21 that I want! However your outfit is definitely gorgeous!

I love the leopard print skirt! I like how you paired it with a plain black top so all the attention is on the skirt. I've seen so many pleated skirts on all the other petite bloggers. It makes me want to add it to my wishlist as well :P

I've been on the hunt for a pleated skirt, too, but they always seem to hit me too low on the leg -- and pleats are so difficult to hem as a DIY (or at least they are for me). They're definitely on my fall wish list too, though.
