Full skirts our SNA challenge





Hello and welcome once again to our monthly Style Not Age challenge! This month Jacqui chose Full Skirts as our theme. This for me was very tricky as I currently only have one big skirt to hand which I'd styled in three different ways, none of which really excited me so this one is the best I could do!




Much as Jacqui chose Full Skirts she has since lamented the fact as even she found it a challenge too far. Her skirt and top are from F&F, and jacket is from Matalan. Catch up with all her news on Mummabstylish blog




Gail lucked out when she found her skirt and necklace in a Plymouth charity shop for the grand total of £3.25! She shopped her closet for the rest of her outfit, and very successfully too. Find out more on Gails blog Is This Mutton




Emma's full skirt is by Joanna Hope. I love the bold autumn colours and how she's styled it, particularly with that natty hat! See more from Emma on the Style Splash blog. 




Hilda's gorgeous big skirt was on loan from a local boutique - a fact that always makes me envious. The rest of her look was from her own wardrobe, so see more of that on her blog Over The Hilda




I do love this skirt and wore it for the first time in the summer for a fund raising event at the Gallery - see it here. As a summery look I thought it worked perfectly, but in the depths of winter it really did challenge me. I had another rebirth in mind featuring gold to tie in with the forthcoming festive season but the weather here has been so wild this past weekend that I couldn't even get along to the Gallery to showcase it. (I have nowhere at home that gives good enough light at this time of year to take blog photos.)




However, as a full skirt it complies with the remit and so this is it. The skirt was new (from Vinted) and the brand is Coast so it was a worthy addition to my wardrobe earlier this year and I do still love it.




The leopard print top and orange sock boots are also from Vinted, again both new with tags on. 




My orange perspex rings are preloved and the gold coloured snake necklace was a gift from a girlfriend.




So that pretty much rounds things up for this month's challenge. Sorry if I've not been terribly inspiring this time. As you may already know, winter isn't my favourite season for showcasing outfits, but I'll keep trying!

  1. Oh Anna, this is so you and I can see you styling this skirt throughout all the seasons just as perfectly. Your hair has gotten so long, do you think a visit to London is happening soon, would be great to meet up love xx Jacqui x

  2. What a gorgeous skirt, Anna, and I love how you've styled it with orange and leopard. I might have gone for a belt (in orange - you know me, I love matchy!) to help pull it all together. I love big full skirts, but the fit-and-flare silhouette is a little harder to pull off as one gets older.
    I love the pose of you sitting on the stairs! That's such a great picture.

  5. Stunning, swishy skirt Anna. I love the way in which you style your clothes. The leopard print and orange boots complement it beautifully. Xx
