Pretty Pretty Princess

You know those times when you feel like a princess? It seems to happen less and less as we get older and I'm about to invent some pretend proms and homecoming dances just to get dolled up. Prom without the high school drama? Yes, please. My BF often calls me a pretty pretty princess -typically when I'm looking like a hot mess - but this outfit is truly one of those pretty pretty princess moments:

This skirt called my name during a recent Nordstrom trip and initially I balked at the price but the sales girl convinced me to try it on. She knew what she was doing! Typically my deciding factor for these types of purchases is the cost per wear; how many times can I actually wear this? Stay tuned to see a few more ways to style this baby... maybe I'll convince you to buy it, too. Btw this skirt fits a bit small , I'm wearing a 2 and typically I'm a 0.

Editors note: I try to keep it real with you guys, I'm not dressing up like this on a daily basis. This is truly my everyday style (and here) - my goal with the blog is to inspire but also create attainable looks that we can all wear for date night, casual weekends activities, and all the real life events we're attending. Just wanted to let you know that! #truth
