The following skirt will be proof that regular people really can win giveaways and contests! I won this gorgeous maxi skirt from the fabulous blog DIY Divas back in July. I wore it a few times throughout the summer, but unfortunately I don't have photos of those outfits. :( I believe pieces can be reimagined in a lot of ways for different seasons, so here is the skirt paired with a comfy cardigan and flats for fall.

Don't you just love that gorgeous print?!

Teal Cardigan: Rue 21 thrifted $8

Lace Top: Walmart $9.88

Dreamcatcher Necklace: handmade

Skirt: Zip Chic Boutique won $39.99

Ballet Flats: H&M thrifted $3

Studded Flap Bag: groopdealz.com $18 

Must have the skirt? It's still available here from Zip Chic Boutique:

Tip of the day: Enter all contests and giveaways you can find! Fashion bloggers give away amazing products often on their sites, and fashion magazines are another source of excellent freebies! This is not the first time I've won something, and I'm sure it won't be the last. Persistence pays off!
