ALL THINGS FEMININE

I had attended the Absolut Mixology contest held at Aqua Blue Lounge, hence the drink in the middle of the day.....(don't judge, there was lots of tasting involved).
A close friend of mine was in the contest, (couldn't miss it for the world).
I went with this maroon full skirt (thrifted of-course).
Pairing it with black was my simplest option, simply because I had changed from monochrome colors to print tops and realized that it could take me all day to feel comfortable in any of them.
On my way to town, I couldn't help but listen to the conversation on the radio.
They were talking about stripping women for being in 'skimpy' clothes. In a span of one week, three women have been stripped for wearing short skirts and the likes.
I was glad to be in this 'old skul' skirt, which put me in the decent category.
Anyhow, I don't think I will ever understand how a woman in a skirt gets stripped for that. At the end of the day, its just your life, and you have a right to the simplest of decisions like what you are going to wear.
For lack of a neck-piece that excited me enough (working with this skirt had me on my toes), I went with this simple scarf. it reflected both colors.
Loved this pose, felt so Cinderella-ish.
It took some sunlight to remind me that it was still daytime.
I bought these shoes two years ago, and wore them once. My interest in them has just been recently rekindled. I like how edgy they make my outfits look.
Maroon full skirt - Gikomba
Black top - raided from moms closet
Black shoes - old
Scarf - Thrifted randomly
Have a fabulous week ahead everyone.
