When I left the country a few weeks ago we were in the mid 90s. I came back to highs in the mid 70s. So weird. Summer to fall in two short weeks!
Transitional clothing is always a bit of a challange, no? The good thing is, I had my first transitional skirt ready to go. This is the Russian LMB skirt I made up in August. Funny, when I made it up, it was too hot to model. Today, I’m wearing it with a turtleneck!
Here’s the back. I didn’t make a swayback adjustment on this. There’s a bit of pooling below my waist because of it.
Cute skirt. I have some striped knit that I think would be really fun in this. I suspect this will be made up a few more times in my immediate future.



What a fun skirt and I love that bold bleu colour!

Looks beautiful on you!!!
That style is so sassy. Love it.
Ooh, very nice. Looks great on you.
I love this skirt. It looks great on you!
Beautiful skirt. Enjoyed your posts on China. Wish it was as warm as 70s here!
That is a really super skirt. Very modern. And it would be quite interesting made with a stripe.
Cool skirt. I think it got up to 65 here in Chicago yesterday. Fall is here.
I like this skirt. You are looking particularly beautiful in these shots.
that skirt looks great.
