Shades of Summer Skirt

I've always adored beaches, warm weather, and anything reminiscent of a tropical locale.

I've always adored beaches, warm weather, and anything reminiscent of a tropical locale. I'm a Pisces, so I attribute my affinity for water, swimming, and the sea partially to my inner fish (I could swim sans water wings at age three!).

For me, it's all about adding summery splashes of color to my ensembles during the dull doldrums of winter, and this Jack by BB Dakota skirt perfectly provides that. This multi-hued marvel features shades of aqua, cobalt, purple, yellow, green, red, pink, and more, while the hidden side zip, pleated, swingy silhouette, and adorable black diamond print add fashionable flair. On a day when it's below 30 degrees outside (and there will be many to choose from this winter), I'll pop on this sweet skirt, add a simple long sleeve tee, bold necklace, bright tights, and funky boots for a kaleidoscopically cool look that will bring a bright burst of color to the dismally dark, long winter. -Natalie, Fashion Writer
