Polka Dots and Neon Pink

Hope your weekend has been going well.

Today, I'm featuring a new outfit - this on-trend crop top and tea-length skirt from eShakti that somehow manages to look both retro and modern.
Outfit:  eShakti (Similar here)
Clutch:  The Limited
The neon pink heels and polka dot clutch add a fun flair, while the cutout adds a sexier edge to the sweet silhouette.

Tea-length skirts were a big trend on spring runways.  I wasn't sure if this length would work on my 4'9" frame, but I decided to give it a try.  

I think the A-line fit of this skirt works really well in this length, and I'm really happy with the comfortable, easy fit.  I think the skirt can easily be styled for work or for more casual situations, so I'm looking forward to playing around with it.
Heels:  Target
Usually, I am really happy with the fit from eShakti, but the fit on this top is definitely a little off.  I ordered this outfit once already, and the top was WAY too short, so I sent it back for a remake with some additional instructions.  This time, the length is a bit too long.  The sheer fabric on this top was also cut a bit too wide.  I may have a seam put down the middle to get rid of the excess fabric for a sleeker fit.
For today's look, I added some bold earrings and fun bracelets and rings for an evening edge.
Bracelets and Rings:  all The Limited
Earrings:  Prabal Gurung for Target
I'm joined on the blog today by my step-daughter Andrea.  She is finishing up second grade.  She loves science and learning about animals.  Annie loves climbing trees, playing on her tablet, watching TV, and exploring nature.  She loves fantasy and is a creative, super smart, and adventurous little girl.

In fact, getting her to stand still for pictures is quite the challenge, so I let her break loose and I followed suit.  :-)


Would you rock a tea-length skirt and crop top?

    Nicely-styled cropped top and skirt outfit along with those electric neon pink pumps. Andrea here is a cutie. Pretty pink polka dot dress on her along with the cute polka dot ribbon. I adore the silliness of you two here as well. Cool post! :)

    Oh I was actually looking at this on the website when they offered to send me something free to review but I was unsure about tea length dress. I myself am only 5'2 so im petite too and not used to long lengths on me. But I think you pull it off well. Oh and the top I've read a few reviews of similar outfits from eShakti with people having the same problem with the tops, so i don't think it's just you. Oh and your pictures with your daughter are adorable! :)

    Yeah, I originally ordered this as my sample for review, but then it was soooo short. I decided to order it again on my own, and actually, I have to say that the skirt fit better the first time around, but the shirt is much better this time. Tea-length is kind of new for me - I'm trying to branch out. :-)
