7 In My Outfits/ STYLE

What I Wore: It’s a Shirt AND a Poplin Skirt

What I Wore: It's a Shirt AND a Poplin Skirt, featured by Florida style blogger, The Modern Savvy

I’m about to take, “be sure you can wear this a few ways” style mantra to the next level. Like, serious next level.

Not only am I obsessed with this poplin skirt in general — I mean there’s rainbows, blue and white stripes and on-trend smocked material (basically everything I’m loving for spring wrapped into one piece!) — it also can be worn as a top AND a skirt.

From Beyond Proper (a huge web and catalog company I learned about from a good friend who’s a buyer for them), this 2-in-1 poplin skirt is so amazing I can’t stop wearing it. If you follow me on Instagram (if not, we must become friends!), you know this was a super popular piece during my girls trip to Nashville.

Having a fun, under $100 item like this in your wardrobe with endless options is such a game changer. By the way, I felt super cool when multiple girls complimented the skirt, one asking if it was by Petersyn. Ha, as if I’d spend $290 on a skirt (insert Alicia Silverstone saying, “as if!”). 😉

POPLIN SKIRT STYLE

For Nashville, I paired the flirty poplin skirt with denim button down — simply tied in the front for a fresh look. I equally love the idea of it a classic white tank (tucked in or knot it in the front), strappy sandals and a cross body.

Would you believe this skirt is also a shirt? Check out this post to see how Florida blogger The Modern Savvy styles one piece two ways - What I Wore: It's a Shirt AND a Poplin Skirt, featured by Florida style blogger, The Modern Savvy

When it came to styling this as a top, it was a no brainer… pair it with white denim to really makes the rainbow stitching pop. Sticking with my love affair with white accessories, I added the prettiest earrings & best, best wedges (I also have them in camel, seen here).

    Both versions look great, but my problem is how long does the elastic hold before the whole thing starts slipping down?

      It feels incredibly durable and well made so I wouldn’t have that reservation. I can see a cheaper construction could cause an issue.
