If you read my guest post over at Craftiness is not Optional, you saw that I promised to show you a matching skirt for this shirt:
Well, here it is!
A fun twirly skirt for a twirly girl.
It’s a full circle with a simple waistband.
But instead of putting elastic in the back, I decided to use a zipper. And instead of just inserting a zipper, I decided to make it an exposed zipper!
I love it, but my husband doesn’t believe me that this is a “thing”. Back me up, fashion forward people. Because whether it’s a “thing” or not, exposed zips are having a moment over here at my house. I just used another one in a dress for me.
(Which I’ll show you when I can find this durn photo prop that I’m completely stuck on and simply must find before I can take pictures of the dress. Don’t judge. We all have our issues.)
You guys are full of cuteness! I think the exposed zip is fun, my daughter is like your husband…. I shall have to endure her comments if I ever decide to do one.
Can’t wait to see your dress. Find that prop!
I love the skirt, but I’m afraid I’d have to back up your husband about the zipper. Especcially at that spot on a skirt.
I agree with Ima (and your husband). The location is the killer part. It reminds me of Kirsty Alley’s dress last night and I didn’t like where my eyes took me.
Otherwise I LOVE that skirt and the top is too sweet!
Very cute!
I have seen several celebrities in dresses with exposed zippers.
I’m afraid that I’m not really a fan of the exposed zipper but that’s just me. Sorry. I do think the outfit is adorable though other than that one thing.
The exposed zipper is terrific! I don’t know what these other peeps are talking about. It is darling.
exposed zippers are definitely a thing!
I love the zipper but would put it to the side….at least as an adult:)
Exposed zippers are totally a thing! I was looking at an adorable dress the other day that was black with a red exposed zipper running down the back! It was super cute!
I love the exposed zipper! awesome.
CUTE skirt but I’m not a fan of the exposed zipper at all. Sorry, I’m with your hubby on this one.
I think the exposed zipper is cute. I don’t know that I would/could sport it, but it’s cute on this skirt! I think BCBG is doing exposed metal zippers right now, am I right?
I’m not a big fan of the exposed zipper, but I never have been very trendy. I think it’s one of those things right now that you either love or hate. Good for you for trying something new!
sorry i dont like the exposed zipper but the skirt is cute.
That skirt looks like it has the perfect twirl factor!
