This metallic pleated skirt is as versatile as they come! I have styled it very formally (as you can see here and here), and now very casually, with nautical stripes and a straw bucket hat!
I also wanted to bring attention to my clutch, which is vintage, from the 50s. To update it, I found this inexpensive bee brooch from Christian Siriano, which is similar to the buckle on my Gucci belt. I simply slipped the pin over the closure of the clutch, securing it, and gave it a renewed life. They kind of complement each other quite well, right?
