Before trying on this floral lace midi skirt from Ann Taylor, I was exclusively a pencil skirt wearer. I’ve never wanted to admit to myself that I’m not 5’10”, and I’ve seen some midi skirts completely just chop a perfectly good set of long legs in half, so I stayed as far away as possible. I fell in love with the trim and tea length of this particular skirt, so I decided to give it a very skeptical go, and I swear, I feel like a new woman. The skirt is so flattering, and I love having layers of fabric to play with (sorry, pencil and/or mini skirts, but you lose in the fun department). I’ll always have a soft spot for my arsenal of high waisted pencil skirts, but midi skirts, especially floral lace midi skirts, are the ultimate trifecta of comfy, versatile, and feminine.

I needed a cute date night outfit, so I paired the rich navy fabric with a coral ruffle top, which is also from Ann Taylor, and my gorgeous new blush Pour La Victoire Elisa heels. The Elisa pump is made with snakeskin textured Italian leather and a 4-inch heel, and you can choose from four different colors, including a fun black and white pattern I’ve had my eye on for weeks.
