I Get What I Want

Shirt: Rue 21, Skirt: Made by Me :), Belt: Borrowed, Heels: Steve Madden

Lately I've been seeing neon colored skirts popping up everywhere on some of my favorite blogs.  I couldn't help but notice how great these girls looked and I suddenly had dreams of having one of my own.  So what did I do??  I went out and bought fabric and made it myself.  I couldn't be happier with the results and I could really notice the improvement in my sewing skills :)  I think neon colored bottoms look best with neutral colored shoes and these bow heels have been a favorite this summer.  What have been some of the current fashion trends you have been wanting to try??

    That dress is adorable!! Does it come with the belt or did you add that yourself? Either way, so cute!

    Aren't you a clever girl sewing up this skirt?! I love that! And it came out so well and looks great on you. I like how you styled it too. I'm loving the maxi skirt thing at the moment!
