What Goes Around…
Everything old is new again…
When it comes to fashion and trends, I can appreciate a blast from the past and at the same time be somewhat horrified that I’m getting old enough to realize that trends always come back in style. You can probably guess how well this newfound realization is going with my internal commitment to “spring clean” my closet.
What Goes Around…
It’s as if now I can totally justify not throwing any of my clothes away – after all, I’ll be able to wear it again in a decade or two, am I right?? Perfect case in point: denim skirts. This high school staple has found its way back into my closet and it has been on heavy rotation.
I bought this particular skirt from Urban Outfitters, but I think vintage is best (I’m still on the hunt for the perfect denim skirt – a trip to the Rose Bowl or Melrose Trading Post is long past due…). For those of you with more patience and a better eye for scoping out treasures than me, I recommend going to a flea market and looking there. Remember to go up a few sizes if you decide to go vintage – I’ll do a post on buying vintage Levi’s soon.
I’m planning on doing a little DIY with this skirt and distressing it myself – I’m not usually one to DIY so this may or may not turn out terribly, I’ll keep you posted! If you don’t still have your old denim skirts from the early 2000s in your closet, check out some cute styles I found online below. Dress them up or down the way you would with your favorite jeans or shorts – the options are really endless.
What are your thoughts on denim skirts? Will you be wearing one this summer?

[…] Urban Outfitters – I’m wearing girlfriend jeans from Urban Outfitters in the photos above. I love the look of vintage Levi’s and have had my eyes on a high-waisted pair from Re/done for over a year, but they’re always sold out of my size and carry a hefty price tag. Urban Outfitter’s BDG brand offers a wide range of jeans and shorts that are usually around $60. I like their Urban Renewal brand as well for repurposed denim (wearing a denim skirt from them here).
