Shabby Apple Giveaway

I love wearing dresses and skirts to school.  And I love when I find cute stuff for reasonable prices.  Imagine my surprise when Shabby Apple, a website for vintage-style clothing, asked me to partner with them for a fun giveaway for my readers!

I picked the Andes Skirt because I loved the pattern and the high-waist/pencil shape to it was so cute!  Living in Hawaii, I was a little curious if it was going to be practical for me, as my style has definitely been more casual over this past year.  But, when it came, I was in love!  It is nice and lightweight, making it great for warm weather.  You could also wear it with tights or leggings, making it a great transitional or layering piece, as well.

The first time I wore it was to an educational conference in Kona with my new principal.  I wanted to make a good impression - I think I nailed!

I paired it with a mustard colored cotton top and coral sandals.  Since the conference was in an air-conditioned room, I threw on a neutral sweater.  It was perfect!  The fabric is so soft and the high waist didn't bother me as I sat in meetings all day.

The next time I wore it was this week to school!

This time I paired it with an orangy top, a green military jacket, different coral sandals (I'm obsessed with sandals!), and a low bun.  I got so many compliments at school!  It was great for walking around the classroom, even sitting on the carpet with kids.  The *only* trouble I had was I had to do a little hop to get into my car because the opening of the skirt near my knees is a little small.  It wasn't a huge problem, though.  

Now it's your turn.  How would you like to win your own Andes Skirt from Shabby Apple?  Just fill out the rafflecopter below!  I'll pick a winner next Wednesday night!

  20. I never used to wear skirts, dresses or really care about my clothes - I recently have lost 45 pounds and feel GREAT and would LOVE to win this cute skirt and FEEL GOOD in it! It's funny how versatile it is - when you paired it with different tops, it looked so different - LOVE it. I think I would need to wear a cardigan {I have mustard colored one that I think would look great with it} since the weather is growing chillier by the day here in MI. I wonder how it would look with tights?

    Thanks for the opportunity to win!!!!
