Double-Take Tuesday: That Green Skirt Again?!




 Hello Everybody Everywear, Everywhere.
      I’m glad the EBEW challenge is today, because it coincides perfectly with the featured green Double -Take Tuesday item. Forgive me for kind of piggy-backing off yesterday’s post in which I happen to be wearing the same outfit. Yesterday’s post was about print mixing. Today’s post is all about the skirt.  I wore it in “Sheila Sells Seafood by the Sea”. Remember I said it may turn up again? Well, here it is!
     This skirt is fast becoming a favorite of mine. It’s comfy, goes with a million things in my closet and the A-line cut is easy on the figure. I especially like the color, which I would describe as a kelly green. It’s a chameleon; preppy at times, fresh and playful at others.
     You know I picked one up for you too while I was thrifting right? Right. (see bottom of page) I’m excited to offer this piece for a couple of reasons. One, it’s a wrap skirt, so it’ll accommodate multiple sizes (30”-35” waist). See the buttons in front? That’s how it’s adjusted. Two, if you’re a fan of vintage pieces, this one’s for you. Ever heard of a brand called “Lombardi”? I tried it on and it basically hangs similar to the one I’m wearing and the two front pockets are a cute touch. By the way, it’s 29 ½” long and in excellent condition. You’re gonna love it! Can’t wait to see how you style it!
     Have a look at the previous Double-Take Tuesday winner here.

Here’s how to make it yours:
Between 3/13/12 to midnight 3/19/12 EST,
1)      Leave a comment here telling me how you plan to style it.
2)      Follow Style Agent 909 on Facebook, Blog Lovin’,Google or Twitter ( I just set them up). That’s it! I’ll notify to lucky lady who gets it.

For those of you unfamiliar with Double-Take Tuesday, here's what it's all about: 
This is where I feature an item worn two ways. Then I offer up one same or similar item for you to claim. You never know what the featured item may be, what color or size. Heck, I don't even know! It all depends on what I find on my thrifting adventures.

  4. No way!!!!!!!!!! What an awesome skirt! I love the way that you have styled it both ways, but I think I like #1 just a little bit more. I am going to follow you so that I can have my hand at winning it! For me, I think I would actually pair it with this shear black top that I have in my closet and a great pair of booties! Hope to win! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog!
