I usually gravitate toward skirts that hit a little lower on the leg. This Ruffle Lace Skirt from Fashionably Dead changed my mind fast. It feels playful and sharp at the same time. Paired with Pare’s Waldorf Jacket, the look comes together without effort. Both pieces just dropped at Collabor88, and yes, they deserve the attention.

A quick pause for the Waldorf accessories. The necklace and bow tie (wearing just the tie here) come in a separate pack with plenty of texture options. You also get an unrigged version, which means you can reuse them across half your wardrobe. Practical and stylish. A rare combo.

I styled the skirt with Miamai’s Glitter pantyhose. Your legs look warmer, and the outfit feels more finished than a bare leg ever could. The Donna boots by Kheops add balance with a slouchy shaft and a kitten heel that actually works for walking. The bag is Salvadori’s Leather Adventure Tote, roomy and unfussy.

For beauty, I chose Exile’s Nyelle hair, another Collabor88 release, and Boataom’s Christie skin on the leLutka Madrid head. Clean, modern, and easy to wear.

Happy New Year to you. I hope it treats you well. With good health, good style, and fewer bad surprises.

XO, Graz
