No, I didn’t make the top again.

So, I made the peplum top here. I finally got the skirt finished today. Whew. I think it looks so cute paired together! My school colors are purple, gold, and black so this is perfect for that!

I’ve been making a real effort to make sure the clothes I make coordinate with something else in my wardrobe. This is my Jalie top (from this post) I made recently. I love black, purple, and gold together. This skirt is really nice to wear. I mean, come on, it’s pencil skirt. They go with everything. Here’s a little bit better shot of the back. I didn’t put this outfit together because it is exactly my school colors, I like these colors together.

I posted these pictures mainly so you can see my new boots! I love them. They are made by . . . Timberland. Really? Yes, really.

I didn’t really do any detail shots of this skirt because it’s just a pencil skirt. I’ve shown you the inside, lining, zipper, and vent stuff before. I’ll just give you some highlights: fashion fabric facings attached to full lining, dark navy blue invisible zipper, vent on CB seam, two darts in the front and back for shaping, and a hand stitched hem. And a partridge in a pear treeeeeeeeeeeee.
