When I got up yesterday morning I was feeling pretty confident about what I put together to wear to work. I've worn this maxi skirt numerous times and I'm still finding different ways to wear it depending on where I'm going. Dark? Yes. Creepy? Definitely! I left the dark lipstick behind for work, but dolled up a little for the photos. Finding a good length maxi skirt is quite challenging when you're on the short/petite side. I struck gold with this one a couple years ago when I got it from Forever21. The cami is from Aerie and I'm also wearing a loft cardigan. I think what I like most about maxi skirts is that there is the option to dress it up or dress it down.  I've worn this with my Led Zeppelin tee and also with a black body suit underneath. It's all about what makes you comfortable and what you're feeling that day. And short ladies: Don't be afraid to buy one! Of course try it on and see how it fits and if you love it, get it! Eve...

My best friend since pre-school, Cassie won the Karsh Photography Award for her photo series titled "The Abductees." I am very proud of her and I went down to Boston the other night to see her work on display and receive her award. My friend, the talented photographer she is was gracious enough to snap two photos of my outfit: The skirt is handmade by me and I am currently in the process of sewing a few more for the upcoming summer.  One will be Marvel themed! I feel like a movie star when I put this outfit together, that's for sure ;] Also be sure to check out Cassie's photos here . And here are some other photos from that night! -Kristina

For month's now we've been dealing with all too many grey days and snow so when the weather decides to change it's tune (or sometimes not) I bust out the tights and skirts and do a little happy dance in the morning...or at least try to in efforts to feel better! I got this little skirt from H&M last summer with the Tiger screen print on it: I also loved the print SO much that I caved and got the dress too It's super comfortable and because it's black and very easy to pair with coloured tops or fun tights.  While I didn't in this photo, the coming spring/summer months will give me a good opportunity to do so again. It was quite warm out on Saturday, so I only needed my trusty cardigan and also my Savin Hill Boots from Timberland. They have amazing footbeds so that I'm comfortable all day AND they keep my feet dry.  They aren't water-proof but they're great in the snow. But unfortunately there's snow (and a lot ...
