Look I'm Loving: Chambray Shirt and Floral Skirt

an easy, breezy spring style

I am absolutely loving this look right now: a simple chambray button-down shirt tucked into a floral skirt, pencil or full.

It's screaming spring, fresh, new to me, which is exactly what I want to be wearing now that the winter weather is finally starting to disappear. Pair them with a great pair of sandals, a cute belt, and a statement necklace.

I'll be honest, I have been been slightly frightened by the whole floral-patterned trend that we are seeing everywhere these days. I considered floral as more, like, the drapes from a nursing home as opposed to a staple part of my wardrobe.

But then, almost on a whim, I bought this skirt at LOFT.

And on my search for "what the heck am I going to wear this amazing not-me skirt with?" I came across this look. And I have never looked back.

Here are some great options for chambray shirts:

Keeper Chambray Shirt, $92, J.Crew
