Visible Monday #17: Red Hot

Welcome to Visible Monday #17! If you want to participate, it’s so easy: just go to the bottom of this post for the simple how-to.

I recently saw Audi of Fashion for Nerds in a long red pleated skirt, and (of course) she looked fabulous. I had already picked up this midi-length skirt, and Audi’s post inspired me to try it out. It’s by DKNY and very nicely made. It’s a layer of poly chiffon over a layer of something silky, and it has a real leather sewn-in waistband (barely seen here).

I wore a simple boat-neck top with three-quarter sleeves, my very favorite sleeve length for any time of year. This top is by Panache (vintage) and it’s 100% cotton in a very nubby, sheer weave. It’s boxy but I like it. The new favorite Sofft booties are making yet another appearance! I did say I wear my favorite shoes to the nubs.

You can barely see the black leather waistband. It’s so cool.
No, I don’t sleep in these shoes. Almost, though.

Now, let’s see what you’re wearing today! The link-up is open through Wednesday morning.

The guidelines to participate in the Visible Monday Link-Up are so simple!

  1. Any Monday, whoever wants to can join in! Just compose a post that includes any outfit, accessory, piece of jewelry, hairstyle, cosmetic or other adornment that makes you feel more confident, alive and visible that day.
  2. Include a link to Not Dead Yet Style somewhere in your post.
  3. Go to the bottom of this post and click on this cute little link:

In the “Next Step”, you crop the pic (easy tool) you want to display, and you’re done!

  10. If I had those booties, I'd be wearing them all the time as well. And what a great skirt — must be fun to wear.

  11. Welcome, spinningthreads! Love your inspired look. Come back again soon  : >

  12. My dear blogging friend, Dawn of Suitcase Vignettes, let me in on this fabulous link-up secret, and I'm so happy she did! Love that red skirt and I could die for those booties:-)) Thanks for letting me link-up today!

  13. I really love your red skirt- the colour is fantastic and I like how you made it pop by pairing with black.  I felt pretty alive in today's outfit so I'm going to link up!

  14. Beautiful look.  You are right about three-quarter length sleeves (WHERE are all the basic 3/4 sleeve tops in the stores this year?  Is it just me who can't find these basics any more?)  And bravo to you for loving/wearing your shoes to death!  That's how I live, too.

  15. Hi my dear! Hope you're well and what a lovely outfit too, the skirt is fabulous and I adore those bootees! xxx

  16. the red pleated skirt is stunning! The black sheer top kind tamed the color down nicely, you look great in this outfit. The boots looks really comfy too.
