Sometimes you surprise yourself by putting together two pieces you had never thought of pairing with each other before and finding a look that you really like.
I’ve never been shy about mixing prints but I have to admit, I never thought about chevron + polka dots. The two prints are lovely separately but when combined, it somehow reminds me of either a toddler’s outfit, a table cloth, or an iphone case, all of which has never really been a style inspiration of mine. :) But when I was frantically digging in my closet for a top to wear with my polka dots midi skirt on Saturday night, this chevron sequin top fell next to to my polka dots skirt and instantly the combination gave each other life! It’s really a fun and bold look, perfect for a holiday, a dinner date or whatever occasion you set your heart on!

Such a pretty skirt! I’ve been needing a midi length skirt in my closet for fall and this would def be a standout piece!
This skirt is just so adorable, whimsical and flirty! I would pair it with some cute purple suede pumps and a pretty shade of green sheer-like button down shirt tucked inside.
Love the preppy, yet classic style of this skirt. I could see this pairing wonderfully with a bright pink top!
I’m head over heels for this skirt! Polka dots are such a classic.You look lovely :)
You are such a whiz at mixing every print & pattern around KT…..this look is so GORGEOUS!!!

I LOVE circle skirts and this midi is divine!
I would style it with a bright colored tank to make the bright white dots stand out.
The full, midi style and the print is absolutely gorgeous!
Thanks for hosting the giveaway…:)
I LOVE midi skirts. Absolute favorite. This one is one of the cutest I’ve seen so far, so many imaginable ways to style it. The polka dots are perfect! Hope I win <3

This skirt is adorable! I love all of your circle/a-line skirts. I think Black, White and Red is as cliche as Red, White and Blue. I would pair this with another bright – probably yellow! Like a yellow Tippi sweater from J. Crew layered over a white button up. I also have a great pair of black and white stripped shoes that would set this off nicely!
You look fabulous! I would have never thought of pairing this together. But now i want to try it! :-)
I love it! it would look great with red top or white sweatshirt)
I love your work!!! I love your Chevron pairing and so it would inspire me to try other prints with this great piece to modernize the look- for eg- I would try a vertically striped tailored blouse for a work setting, maybe even a black and white paisley top- or go my usual trend and do a plain white cashmere long sleeve short sweater with this- or a sheer black top, or a crisp red blouse to bring it that 50’s effortless glam. I just would love to wear this skirt!
You mailed this look! I don’t know what I’d come up with that could march the Chevron print. Gorgeous!

Hi KTR!
I follow you on Instagram and have followed you for So So long. You are one of my greatest inspirations! I absolutely LOVE how you have styled this Gorgeous skirt and it’s hard to alter how perfectly these two pieces come together. If I had to put my own spin on it, i think i would pair the skirt with a Sleeveless Turtleneck (either Black or even a solid color) or maybe a fitted lace top, or a fitted fuzzy sweater (Gah, too cute!) then add a statement necklace with lots of sparkle. I would def keep a metallic shoe or maybe a lace up nude bootie, pointed or peep-toe pump. I think the options are endless and this is a timeless piece.
P.S. When you commented on my pics today it really brightened up my afternoon. Thank you so much!
As a Pentecostal girl, I love your midi skirts!! Gorgeous and modest
I love the fullness of this skirt! I’d style it with polka dots on a smaller scale and in a different color.
Oh my goodness, there are no words….this outfit is absolute perfection!! I love the mix of prints, and the daytime glam with the sequined top :) You are such an inspiration!!

I love all your skirts!! I would wear the polka dot skirt with my white crop top and lots of gold chunky jewelry and nice heels!! Hopefully I win! Fingers crossed!! :)
I love polkadots :)
I love this skirt :) i’d pair it with either a white or soft pink blouse with a leather jacket on top and heels :) or a pink cropped pullover sweater made of really soft, yummy fabric :) and of course, a pair of heels.
What a gorgeous skirt! I’m a major midi skirt fan and as the weather is getting colder here in London I would style this with a nice cosy knit!

Love all the full skirts you’ve been making! I love the look of a high waisted full skirt with a crop top.. Sexy, but not too over the top!

OMG OBSESSED WITH THIS!! perfect for a bridal shower or holiday party! Maybe with a pink lip and hot pink shoes! OMGAAHHHH
Omg im so in love with this skirt! I would totally wear it with bright colored shoes and a bright bag. Perfect for a christmas party or anything for that matter! Its so fashionable and chic! LOOVVEEEEE
i love full midi skirts and i especially love that this is whit and black. You dont need to do too much and you would still get the wow effect. i would pair this with a pair of nude/pink pumps and a white button up shirt.
I love full midi skirt, they just give me life and you don’t have to do too much with them because they make a statement already. I would pair the skirt with a nude/pink pumps and crispy clean white button up shirt.
BTW, I don’t have instagram, but I pinned this picture and tagged you. :)
I love navy and white polka dots together! I would probably just style the skirt with a white button up top tied at my natural waist with rolled sleeves and a super cute statement necklace and heels in a bright color.
I could see myself pairing this skirt with a slouchy white sheer blouse! Normally I wouldn’t pair something so voluminous with another voluminous item, but I think the fact that the skirt cinches in at the smallest part of the waist offsets that.
I would love to win the amazing skirt! I love that you posted it with chevron print. The 2 looks so rich together, between the luxurious material of the skirt and fancy sequins on the top.
I love how feminine this skirt is! I would love to see how a leather jacket would look. xoxo

KT, your designs never cease to amaze and inspire. I would love, love, love to have this skirt in my wardrobe, but with a sadly limited budget, there is no shopping in my future – so I’m crossing my fingers that I win! For the cold weather months coming up, I would style it with a gray turtleneck, a sparkly necklace and black heels.
xox,

Love love loveeee the skirt, it is unique and cute. Polka Dots are trending right now also.
I LOVE this skirt. I might just have to get that chevron top :) or just KISS it (keep it simply styled) with a solid top. You just can’t go wrong with that skirt!
Just when I decided I’m over bodycon skirts/dresses, I found your site and store. I’m so into full skirts this season! I even wrote about them on my blog. Who doesn’t love a teeny waist!?
I’d love to style it for the holidays with a chunky crop sweater and some sleek pumps. So adorable!
I’ve been a little conservative with prints but wore a full polka pencil dress for cocktail event last week, topped off with light red accessories and it was such a HIT that I’m definately feeling the polka trend. I could really see myself dolling this skirt up with a variety of tops-it would be perfect for one of many Christmas events :-) Pick meeeeee
I love that skirt. Really cute.
You are creative at mixing prints together. Thanks for the inspiration! Will copy that outfit ideas. Thanks for the giveaway.
I love the skirt so much! I think it would be a great piece to wear to an upcoming wedding. *fingers crossed*
Thanks for doing a giveaway! Your designs are all so flattering!
I am in love with you skirt…so pretty! Love the styling

Really adore how fulfilled of volume it is, and it got the most perfect pattern ever, impossible to not love it! Definitely the perfect skirt for the season! For match it, there are lots of pretty options: since mixed with another patterns (like you perfectly did it), or simply with a big bowed shirt!

I love that the polka dots are so big. I’ve never seen polka dots on this scale before!
