To make Flashback Friday extremely appropriate why not to talk about the trend I thought I would ever wear again : the denim skirt.

I remember a moment in college where I was purging my closet from my old high school duds.

In that closet, I had a few too many denim skirts most of which were of questionable length.

I had been noticing more and denim skirts around last spring popping up on a few bloggers I follow.  I thought the idea of the denim skirt being a “thing” again was cute but just not for me.

I noticed most of these skirts were a little bit longer and a heavy longer fabric (midi skirts here’s looking at you!) on my smaller frame I just didn’t see in my cards.

More recently, I felt the itch to really try the trend for myself.

I stumbled into my local Abercrombie & Fitch store to have a look around.

I mean, my previous collection of micro denim skirts were from this Americana brand.

I happily discovered this lovely skirt in the sale section (yay!) for wait for it……… $15.

Yup, you read that right.

The overpriced Abercrombie that my parents loathed of yesteryear was not found on my trip.

Once I realized the price I quickly scanned the rack to find a size that 
A. would be form fitting but loose enough to actually breathe in and 
B. was an appropriate length for an almost 30 year old to wear.

I will say, I am very pleased with my purchase and envision this skirt getting a lot more wear than I had originally planned.

Funny story about these photos: these were snapped after brunch and after I 
splashed some oily huevos rancheros juice on my shirt.  Now on to the dry cleaners to rescue it.
Happy Friday :)
