Skirting the Issue - Outfit of the Day

So, I was in Myer recently paying off a layby for the most amazing faux fur coat ever (which I am yet to wear, by the way because it has been unseasonably warm in Melbourne lately!) when I noticed it was 30% for Myer one card holders, being one I wandered the racks and came upon the cutest skirt and top by Piper Woman. So, having paid off one layby I set about placing another! A couple of weeks ago I picked it up and I thought I would make a little outfit of the day with my two favourite pieces. Please excuse my hair, it was being very difficult!

Top and skirt (Piper Woman @ Myer), stirrup leggings (Target), shoes (Rubi Shoes)

 The skirt has the cutest floral pattern, it's really subtle but in the most beautiful complimentary colours. It also has pockets! Add pockets to a dress or skirt and you have pretty much guaranteed that I will buy it. I have bought some of the ugliest stuff you have ever seen but I always say to myself - 'Don't worry, it has pockets!'

While shopping, I also picked up a new lipstick from Priceline, I had coupons that they had sent me for Maybelline and I chose one of the Colour Sensational lipsticks. The one I am wearing is number 420 - Coral Pop and I love it! I really love coral coloured things in general, I have a ridiculously bright coral colour from the same Maybelline collection and it's one of my favourites but I just wanted a more subtle coral for daytime and I think this colour is perfect. On the whole, I actually quite like the Maybelline Colour Sensational range, I have about 4 different colours that I use regularly and overall I think the formula is great.
