A-Line Skirt for the 50’s, 60’s, & 70’s:
Quote of the day: “In three words I can sum up everything I’ve learned about life: It goes on.” Robert Frost
As I’ve stated in the past, I love a skirt for many reasons. And most of us have an a-line skirt already in our possession. One is it gives variety to a women’s wardrobe and secondly it tends to be cooler (think air flow between your legs). In today’s society, we don’t usually pick a skirt as a “go-to” for a casual day, but with a t-shirt and sandals, why not?
As someone who really wants to wear what is already in our closets, I thought using our a-line skirts would work just fine. Why not be able to wear it for many occasions, right? If you missed the earlier post, I dressed up these exact same skirts for the workplace (here).
