inspiration: Gilt
This catalog photo instantly caught my eye because the brocade pattern is so similar to a nearly-decade-old pencil skirt still in my closet. I loved the idea of mixing brocade and burgundy, two huge trends for fall, so I decided to give pairing the two together a shot. Hot pink didn't look quite right with the more muted tone of my skirt but the blush pink was a nice substitute. I've always believed in hanging onto something if you still like it, because everything comes back into style eventually. And this time it really paid off!
