I have a love for Forever21, and on a recent mommy time out shopping spree I fell in love with a few pieces from their contemporary line. You can read that post about self care here . Anyways, I saw this mint green maxi skirt and knew I needed it. As I wear a lot of black and white outfis. I mean a lot of them. I figured the sage color would be perfect for the summer and fabric is a nice light material. The skirt also comes in black by the way. I also bought a nice billowy tank top to wear with it for a nice Greek Goddess vibe.
I think it worked well, and with the strappy Unicorn Sandals from Charlotte Russe it ties the whole look together along with my new Palm tree bag from ALDO.
(And yes we were at Ikea. Which is also a bit of this post too.) This outfit is such a beautiful summer look, and it fits alright. The skirt needs to be taken in at the waist. They do not sell these in XS, but a small alteration and we are good. I bought the top a size bigger a Size Medium, because the girls. And the baggier style fits this look the way I want. Simple and easy style. The jewelry simple and understated. This is a summery outfit to me. A comfortable look. No fuss.
It is a nice break from the usual black and white outfits I wear a lot. The mint green is a nice cool color and with the white tank you just can not go wrong. This like I said before is truly a great summer outfit. And p.s. if you don’t feel like shaving, wear a maxi skirt. Right?
So, we went to IKEA ORLANDO for the day! It was a mom and daughters day out! We went to look at all the things get ideas for the home and shop duh. We always start our day with their breakfast and then shop till we literally are dropping!
It is always a great time when we go. there is always so much to see! But, there was a lot of construction in IKEA. They were changing rooms around and making new ones to look at. Which is cool but man we did not get to see it!
This is my dream library. I want this library. I want it! Look at that chandelier!
SO many things to see at IKEA and you always miss things. It truly is an all day event. ALL DAY.
Steal my style!

This is such a beautiful summer outfit and a perfect fit on you Stephanie. I love long flowy skirts. They are so classic and never go out of style. I also love IKEA as well. We always leave IKEA with so much more than just what was on the list 🙂

Thank you! It is a good one and comes in black too
I’ve always had a soft spot for the Forever 21 stores, they have so many things to choose from. Now I’m lucky enough living in Berlin and having an access to the store, coz we didn’t have one in Frankfurt. I love every single piece of yours, this mint skirt looks absolutely divine. And the whole look is so chic and wonderful.
And yeah, IKEA is also my neverending love. I like spending hours and hours there <3
Great post, babe!
