The Ever Colourful Salvation Army

Look at this skirt! I haven't worn it yet.. but look how mermaidish it is! I think it's brilliant. It had an original price tag of $365 - not sure how accurate that was tho. Anyhoo, I paid a humble $24. Hmm.. I need to find somewhere appropriate to wear it....

OMG...I must be getting old. Where on earth would you wear a skirt like that??
Love the scarf though - "all things bright and beautiful"!

I thought about wearing it to school (I'm an art teacher, so I COULD get away with it and I have a 'skirt collector reputation) but I CAN'T bring myself to wear it!

I WILL wear it (I WILL!)! (maybe not to school)

Funky skirt never the less...

Now that you've explained that you are an art teacher, I can understand the attraction this skirt had for you. I think you should wear it to school - just once, to see what the students say! I had another look and have to concede that it is pretty. But I still wouldn't wear it myself! (I might have when I was your age)

Hmmm.. Maybe I will wear it to school. Although the kids are pretty used to my weird skirts, so they may not think much of it. hehe.
