Blue Plaid

Guess what season it is!?! It's Fall!!  Time to bring out the paid! I have plaid shirts I have stolen from my husband, found in thrift stores and gotten even though I didn't need them. They are probably my favorite piece of clothing to wear in the Fall. I pair them with skirts, boyfriend jeans, leggings, heels, flats or boots. The styling possibilities are absolutely endless! 

What is your favorite piece of clothing to wear in the Fall?

Enjoy & Be Beautiful!!

There is nothing better than "cozying" up in a large sweater when the air gets chilly. Here I paired the sweater with a vintage pencil wool skirt and belted it to show my waist a little bit. I ended up getting the skirt of course because I absolutely love pencil skirts! 

How do you wear your chunky sweaters during the cold months?!

Who else has been enjoying this warm weather?! It has even been nice enough to pull those tanks out without having to immediately cover them up with a thick sweater! I have to say I don't hate it! 

My boyfriend jeans are another piece that I am loving wearing longer; because once that wind picks up and it gets a tad nipplier outside the rips make the jeans an impractical wardrobe choice. 

So I am going to appreciate this amazing weather for as long as I can! Anyone else enjoying this beautiful summer in fall weather?

Chiffon Skirt

Outfit Details:

top: Asos

skirt: handmade by Me

bag: Chictopia

shoes: Circus by Sam Edelman via Heels.com

When I started this blog and I finally decided on the title ' Lipstick & Chiffon', I knew one day I would need to have the perfect chiffon skirt, since I have other chiffon pieces I love, just never the perfect skirt! I have been searching and searching to no avail. I got a skirt that I thought would be the one...but it ended up not being the ONE. 

One day I decided, hey I am going to go search for the perfect fabric for this amazing skirt I had in my head and just create it myself. And miracles of miracles I found it! I decided to combine the non-perfect skirt and the perfect material to create the skirt of my dreams. 

Next I took out my dress form and cut the pink skirt to the length I wanted and took out the waist, so I could gather the material to create a more voluminous look. After I pinned it, I cut the white chiffon material and then gathered it over the pink. Final step was to sew it together and place the side zipper in the seam! I still plan on finishing the rough edges of the pink under-layer, but for now it is one of my favorite pieces that I have ever made (all by hand too!)!

There will definitely be more to come with this skirt! Do you have that perfect skirt that you are obsessed with?
