Boardwalk Linen Two Ways

boardwalk linen 1  boardwalk linen 2

This lovely polka dotted skirt has not gotten enough love from me. I've shamefully only worn this piece once since I purchased it on sale last year. So when the factory store came out with a copycat version, I was reminded that I had this easy-going piece (I know, my closet is sometimes a black hole where clothes are hung up and simply absorbed) and made a point to wear it more often. Here are two of my recent iterations for this skirt - how would you recommend wearing this piece?

Bracelets: INPINK pink glitter barnacle (worn here - sim, sim ) & Love Andrea's Closet (sim, sim)

    I love those flowers!

    I really like it paired with the pink best but I could easily see this paired with some of your orange/coral items.

    I love it! Both looks are fantastic. I bet this skirt would also look great with yellow, or green!

    I don't think I can recommend any other way to wear this but the way you've done - that hot pink ensemble sings to my bright-lovin' soul while the striped shirt makes the pattern-mixer in me beam with glee. That said, I can picture this skirt with florals for more pattern mixing fun or with blazers and scares when the season turns.

      Now you're thinking like a varsity-level pattern mixer! ;o)

    I love both ways you've styled it here. It would look cute with a white t-shirt, cute flat sandals and a big sun hat...beach style!

    I love both of the ways you styled the skirt! The pink with the floral pin is especially cute!

    That skirt is so cute! A simple white tank or even some chambray would look great with it, as well. Orange would be fun.
    If clothes need to get lost into closets, at least it is kinda fun when they are rediscovered. It is like a whole new item! At least that is what I tell myself... It helps with the guilt ;)

    I love this skirt with the stripes! I bet it would be great with a white tank or button up and some sandals for summer!

    Both of these are fun, I love it with the pink. I think it would be fun with heels and a blazer or a tee and jean jacket.

    I love both ways you styled it! Althought the pink sweater with the flowers is too cute! I would probably do a white tank and a bright statement necklace...you know white tees are my fallback :)

      True, you can't have enough perfect white tees, they literally go with everything.

    I love both of them! I think it would look great with a solid colored v-neck or boat neck tee and one of your always-fabulous necklaces!

    I love, love, love the pajama top with that skirt. It is so cute. That skirt is great. I have a similar skirt I have only worn twice. Now I am wondering why.

    I love it both ways...especially with the stripes! It would look really cute with mint too I think :)

    I love the pink sweater with it! The Charley sweaters are my favorite! I think they go with everything. Yellow may be a fun color to pair with this skirt too!! Or maybe a white tank and a yellow cardigan? Have a great week! Susan
