Mother/Daughter Remix: Berry Colored Skirt

Happy Tuesday!  We finally got a chance to pull together our Mother/Daughter Remix, although a day late.  But hey, sometimes real life things happen.  Today we thought we would remix the berry colored skirt.  Heather has had hers from New York & Company for quite some time and this skirt has become quite a closet essential.  Kayla finally found one very similar at Forever 21 during the Christmas holiday.  We are not sure why this colored skirt hasn't ever gone into the remix rotation, because the remixing possibilities are endless!

On K: Top (Forever 21), Belt (Express, thrifted), Wedges (Burlington Coat Factory)

On H: Cardigan (Target), Tee (Old Navy), Belt (Kohl's), Heels (Thrifted, Goodwill Target New Stock), Necklace (Gift)

On K: Tee, Belt & Necklace (Kohl's), Shoes (Tom's)

On H: Cardigan (F21, thrifted), Tank (Walmart), Heels (JCPenney)

On K: Top (Macy's), Boots (Old Navy, swap), Necklace (Kohl's)

On H: Top (Second-hand), Belt (??), Boots (Kohl's)
This berry colored skirt is a great building block for pairing with other brights, neutrals, monochromatic looks, and animal print.  It's also a nice alternative to red.

What's your favorite colored skirt to wear?

Also, we just wanted to say that we have been a little behind in commenting on your blogs.  We have still been reading them and we love all of you, but things have been pretty hectic these past few weeks.  Please bear with us!

  7. This is probably one of my favorite remixes to date! The color of that skirt is absolutely amazing - very rich and bright. But you both proved how versatile it can be. I really love how Kayla paired it with the slouchy white tee and boots. It's a great casual look and I would definitely wear it myself. Thanks for sharing, ladies!

  9. LOVE this remix, and those great berry colored pencil skirts. Heather's first look is just like sherbert, I love the play on berry tones. I love Kayla's off the shoulder top, it definitely makes the skirt look a bit more casual.

    I just got a bright red/orange skirt that is quickly becoming one of my favorites!

  10. Heather, I love how you paired the skirt with with all those other muted colors.
    Kyla, love it with leopard!!

  11. Cute, cute!! Love the leopard print! #2 was a really creative way to mix it with other colors and then #3 was a bolder version. This is the stuff that inspires me to look at color combos a different way. I like the off the shoulder top with the boots, it gave the skirt a casual vibe. Good job as always! :-)

  15. Some great remix ideas. I think royal blue is still my favorite pairing with berry. However I also like the tonal look Heather is doing.

  23. This is a beautiful piece. I like how pairing it with a looser off-the-shoulder top takes it from structured and work-like to more sexy.

    ReplyDelete
  24. I love that you can pair this color with almost any other color, because I never would have considered doing that in the past. Now I'm thinking the blue and raspberry combo is my favorite of the bunch!

  25. Oooh the color is so lovely! I love how Kayla wore it with the slouchy top! So chic!

  28. What an absolutely fabulous colour! So much pop!!

  29. Love this! Your first version, Heather, with the peach cardigan, is an inspired mix of shades. Fab! The fit is great on both of you.

  30. I have a berry skirt too! I like how Kayla paired hers with the blue top.

    Don't worry about being behind on commenting on other blogs. Sure, commenting helps you grow your readership, but there will come a time when it will be too much to handle.

    I read a great ebook called "Simple Blogging" by Rachel Meeks from the Small Notebook blog (smallnotebook.org). Her blog has thousands of followers, and she explains how you have to appreciate the comments for what they are and reply to just a select few. Easier said than done--but your blog is getting larger and I don't want you both to burnout!

  31. Magenta/berry is your color. This must be my favorite remix since this skirt fits both of you like a glove. I'm not even going to bother picking my favorite looks because I love them all.

  32. Love your berry skirts ladies. I actually have a berry pencil skirt of my own from The Limited. I would still love a Cobalt one, a Turquoise one, a Yellow one and a Kelly Green one. I also have a couple Red pencil skirts, a Lavender one and I am sure a few more colored ones.

    This is one of my favorite remixes up to date. I think berry colors look amazing against blues, especially bright blues. My favorites here are the 1st looks from each one of you, as well as K's 2nd look - that color combo is perfection and the sequined Toms look amazing, too.
