We have a phrase that we use over at You Look Fab. Just Flattering Enough! As time goes on I find I am less interested in conventionally flattering silhouettes and am very drawn to interesting shapes and silhouettes. That's not to say that I don't appreciate classic or conventional flattery, because I do. I just don't always seek that for myself.
This Metalicus Skirt was a Christmas/ New Year holiday purchase. The design of the skirt won me over immediately as it was reminiscent of the Metalicus Curiously Draped Dress, a dress I have had my eye on but haven't bought because I really don't need another summer dress... goodness, did I say that out loud?! I first tried the skirt on while shopping with my very classic sister who thought the skirt was awful. So we continued shopping and after we parted, I made a bee line back to the store, tried it on again.. and took it home.
The skirt is a transeasonal fabric and will transition nicely into Autumn/Winter with the heavier toppers and footwear.
Have you bought anything recently that defies conventional flattery? If so what, and did friends or family comment?
Thank for visiting.

BTW... that 's a nerf bullet at my feet in the first pic, the remnants of a children's party!
