You all already know that my love for skirts is at an all-time high right now. As of late, my current fav is the Slim Corduroy Velvet Mini Skirt from Anthropologie. This is the first-ever corduroy skirt I have owned. In fact, it’s the first time I have ever owned any corduroy for that matter. I’ve always loved this trend but never found any options that came in plus size or actually looked good on me.
What I love about this skirt is that it has some stretch, which makes it perfect for the holidays when you may or may not need a little extra give in your clothes to accommodate the extra cookies that are readily available. I also think the vertical ribbed detailing adds an additional element to the overall look, and the jewel-toned color is a great winter staple.
(Pssst…when you’re done with this one, head over to our Holiday Style Central for more outfit ideas and party inspo.)
Corduroy Skirt For Date Night
This skirt is a perfect option for your next date night and pairs very well with black. I paired this beaut with a cute black ballooned-sleeved top (also from Anthro), a sleek black bag, and my new Sorel wedges.




How cute is the detailing of this skirt though?

Outfit Details
Skirt: Corduroy Skirt I am wearing a size 20.
Top: Black Ballooned-Sleeved Top
Shoes: I can’t seem to find my Sorel wedges on the interwebs so here is a similar shoe option. For those of you who are in the full swing of fall, here is a comfy close-toed shoe option.
Bag: Last but not least, top it off with a sleek black bag.
Your Next Holiday Party Outfit
I love all the glitz and sparkle that comes with the holiday season and am always looking for an excuse to get dressed up with a little extra pizzazz. Personally, I think a cute scarf and a sparkly pair of shoes can turn any outfit into a holiday hit.




Outfit Details
Skirt: Corduroy Skirt I am wearing a size 20. If you are looking for a longer version of my skirt, this one is a great option.
Top: This top is an oldie, but a goodie. Here is a similar option with a few sleek cutouts, and here’s is a more classic option.
Scarf: This scarf was a Christmas gift from one of my besties and is from H&M. The style I have isn’t available, but this H&M option is very close to mine and is a steal price-wise.
Jewelry: Hoops, Necklace, Ring
Shoes: My sparkly mules are sold out, but this is a great alternative — and they’re on sale! If you like designer brands, Gucci and Jimmy Choo have some stellar options.
Add A Light Jean Jacket
I threw this black Levi’s jean jacket on last minute, and love how it completely changed the look of my outfit. When I tried this on at Anthro, I knew that I was in love and bought it in an XL. This now looks like a great option for a wintery girls’ brunch!
