The 6 Remix: Floral Skirt Collaboration styled for Spring.

The 6 Remix is back. It looks like I am keeping up with it every other month and I tell you it is way more fun when I collaborate with others, like I did in March when Carrie and I showed you 3 ways each to style our Puffer Vests for Winter. Speaking of Carrie, I will be co-hosting with her and Jill tomorrow for the Thursday Fashion Files so welcome by and link up. This time I am paired up with JULIE from Artwork by JM. She is mamma to a toddler girl like myself. As a matter of fact, her daughter Paige is exactly one month younger than my daughter Vivian. Julie's blog is a life+style one, mostly focusing on her lovely, easy-chic personal style. Julie and I are showing you 3 different occasions/places to wear a Floral Pencil Skirt for Spring. It is a perfect mid-week post during my lovely 35th birthday week. =) Speaking of Birthdays, Happy Birthday to my Husband today. Yes, our birthdays are two days apart.

The 6 Remix: Floral Skirt Collaboration styled for Spring.

Now, let's look at my Outfits up close.

We are each showing a Casual, a Work and a Mother's Day Brunch Look with our Pencil Skirts. This is my Casual Outfit and the one I wore first. I styled my one and only Pastel-colored Floral Pencil Skirt (also casually) not too long ago and I paired it with the same Slip-on Floral Sneakers which match the skirt perfectly. A few days later I reached for these two pieces again and this time I wore a White Scoop-neck Tee and a Gray Cardigan belted with a Wide Cognac Belt. I was wearing this last month during my 10 remix so the Coral Necklace (which matches all the coral here, perfectly) was part of my top 10 items. I twisted the Coral Necklace with a Silver Mesh Necklace for a 2-in-1 look. I did add a third floral in the mix with these Cute Sunglasses. I ended up liking this casual look a lot, what about you?

This is my Work Look which I actually wore to work on my birthday a couple of days ago. I paired the Skirt with a Chambray Shirt which has tiny anchors on it, thus creating a bit of pattern-mixing. I also wore one of Work MVPs which are the Nude Pumps, an Aqua Briolette Statement Necklace, my current Favorite Handbag (this Blue+Cherry Red Cross-body) and I wore my new Circle-Frame Sunglasses. A Chic Work Outfit with some closet basics, don't you think? I did receive many compliments on this, also.

This final look is my Mother's Day Brunch Look which I just styled for the blog but I do have a brunch to go to this Sunday and I plan on wearing this Outfit, except with a Turquoise Statement Necklace instead. The big Pearl+Black Flower Necklace I ended up choosing felt a little too bulky and heavy with the girly, ruffled shell. I do like all the girly bracelets I added though and how I mixed+matched different shades of coral from the darkest to the lightest (pumps, clutch, top, skirt). These Valentino-inspired Pumps were a little early Birthday Gift from me to me. They are not too high and they are pretty comfy. What do you think of this outfit for a Mother's Day Brunch? I wanted to feel dressy and feminine but not business-y.

Here are all my outfits next to each other. I love the work look but I also love the brunch look though I would change to a simpler necklace, probably in turquoise. I didn't mean to do statement necklaces with all but rather than that, they are all quite different. Which is your favorite?

Here are Julie's Outfits side by side. I love her Red Rose Pencil Skirt and because it has a black background it looks great with Black Shoes especially those Classic Black Pumps. My favorite look of hers is the Work Outfit.
