I’m back with a new outfit post! As I said before I’m trying different things out lately, I layered a mini denim skirt on my go-to black maxi! It sounds funny but I think it’s a great way to add layers to your outfit! Firstly it adds a hint of denim blue to the black and white basics, and secondly the hard fabric of denim is a good mixture with the soft flowy black maxi and sheer top, it gives the entire outfit a solid texture. Love it so much! And the pouch is such a spot-on accessory for this minimalist look! I hope you enjoy this post, leave me a comment and let me know what you think : )

Once again the Frankie Morello’s Spring collection really makes me laugh. I love highway movie kind of setup for the show, and the “inside out, upside down” concept of designs, definitely an inspiration for my outfit; The Givenchy spring collection had opened my eyes for the possibilities of layering. First time in my life I feel justified with wearing two bottom pieces together (well leggings don’t count…); Antonio Marras’ Spring collection is so cheerful and fun. I love the subtle lace details and the overall sheerness.

A black maxi skirt is like a blank canvas you can create almost any look with it. I found these fabulous stylings of slim-cut maxi skirts on Chictopia, they all looks so effortlessly chic! Visit their blogs for more info of the outfits. (And yes, I have a little girl crash on Jean Greige, please don’t tell her : S)

So many gorgeous outfits here. The maxi really works on you! The sheer, flowy ones are the nicest. I’m not sure if it would work on me though.

Hi Crystal,
Thank you for the comment : )
I’m not sure if you can get Jeffrey Campbells in Hong Kong,
I got all mine from http://www.solestruck.com or http://www.freepeople.com
If you’re going to order online just make sure that you order half to one size bigger.
Their shoes run small : )
Hope that’s helpful!
SV, thanks so much^O^
