Pastel Yellow





Skirt - Oasis (old) // Shirt - Hobbs (old)



I'm back from my holiday in  Croatia so I thought I'd bring some sun to the office with my yellow skirt. I'm so thoughtful,  I know.

Summer I finally in full swing and what says summer more than a yellow pleated skirt? It's just so easy a breezy. Pastel yellow is a hard colour to match with a corporate wardrobe. My tops will always have to be a dark or neutral colour - I'll save the royal purple for the weekend.

This is only the second time I've worn this skirt to the office. The first time, everything went wrong.

1) As I walked to my desk,  one of my colleagues came up to me and asked "why are you wearing a yellow skirt,  it's so bright". I was so offended and shocked. I really wanted to come up with a witty/offensive come back but all I could say was 'what's wrong with that?'. I believe that if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything.  What I wear is what I like,  I'm not dressing for anyone else.
2) I was wearing black tights because it was still winter. It looked horrible. Midi pleated skirts don't go with black tights, I know that now.


Let's hope the weather doesn't change! I'm getting used to showing some skin.
