Weekly Wears: Red, Red, Red

****Blogger is being WEIRD, so please ignore this post at the top and scroll down to see the newest one.  <3

 Love me or hate me, there is something you should know about me:  I have a serious love for the color red.  A small conversation about what I am drawn to in a dress a couple of weeks ago led me to assess my closet and realize just how many red dresses I have.  It's okay.  I've already come to terms with it.  ;)


Tank:  old
Necklace:  vintage
Skirt:  vintage
Shoes:  Swedish Hasbeens

I have to mention HOW MUCH fun it is to twirl in this skirt!   I'm like a little kid in this thing.  ;)

I'm curious, do any of you have wardrobe guilty pleasures like I do?  I can't wait to hear!  xoxo Katie

    Oh wow, what a FUN skirt! I love me some big twirly skirts. As for wardrobe reacurances, I tend to have a thing for grey. I get grey everything, vnecks, tank tops, scarfs, beanies, dresses, everything. It makes me feel so "hipster" to say that. Weird!

    I say yes to red...I wear lots of red! I am quite jealous of your skirt; it's adorable! But I top everything off with a scarf, I own far too many.

    It's not really a wardrobe thing, but I am always putting braids in my hair. Probably too often. It's the hippie in me. :)

    mine is stripes. i just bought two more striped dresses and told myself it was ok because they were different colors - i don't have a navy & white striped dress and only one other black & white. but gray & white...have lots of those >_<

    You wear red beautifully! When I wear it, it just brings out my sunburns or blemishes haha.
    I'm guilty of wearing cardigans. ALL the time. But as for colors, I loveeee wearing olive green.

    Definitely nothing wrong with having lots of red! I'm drawn to green and blue a lot, no wonder I chose those for my logo! :) And I'm getting more and more okay with pink.

    Wardrobe guilty pleasure: flowers in my hair! I just love them - I have a red ribbon hanging in my wardrobe which has about 40 different flowers clipped onto it. They're just so pretty!

    I rarely think red hair and red clothing go well together, but you make it look fabulous!

    My wardrobe guilty pleasures are having waay too many grey dresses and many striped tank tops.

    So adorable- you look gorgeous in red! I've been learning to be less colour shy, and while I'm still a neutrals kinda girl I love a big pop of colour for fun.

    I also have a skirt that I love to twirl in! I call it my Jellyfish Skirt because if you hold the hem up on either side and wiggle it, I look like a jellyfish (I think this technique would work with your lovely red skirt, too)

    I always tell people that I never wear pink (I always thought of myself as more of a red girl) but my boyfriend pointed out to me recently that I actually have loads of pink and purple in my wardrobe. It's crept up on me!

    that skirt is AMAZING! and your hair is making me want to grow mine long, and dye it a beautiful color. you are such a beauty.

    I love the color red, too and the plus side is it looks great on you ^_^

    I think just dressing up in general is my wardrobe guilty pleasure. I work from home so whenever I wear makeup, my husband is like, "are you going somewhere?" ha!

    You look good in red! I love red too, but I'm always afraid to wear it when my hair is on the gingery side (like now). But you make it look so GOOD! Maybe I'll give it a try again... :D

    I love your skirt. I would be twirling in it too haha. As of late I own a lot of purple of varying shades. I did go through a blue phase at one point.
