Skirt? No label, from Milli's Top? Winners Shoes? DvF, StyleSense Wristlet? Coach, bridesmaid's gift Necklace? Vintage, The Last Hurrah
It's not a competition but if it were, this skirt would win. Win everything but Miss Congeniality, seriously...
It was Matt's company party this past weekend and last year, when it was his first year at that company, I went conservatively festive in a black frock ('conservatively festive in a black frock?', thanks goodness I am not a copywriter...). But this year... I brought out the big guns. I know more people and one of my very good friends works for the company now and that gave me a whole lot of sequin courage. Of course, the fact that, despite my best efforts to become a socialite, there has been a dearth of event invites also spurred me into wearing my favourite skirt. It is rare that I get the chance to really dress up, so if something comes along, I embrace the opportunity fully. Last time I wore this skirt it was my brother's wedding. I wore it very similarly and we took pictures with cows. I can't top cows... I tried and all we got before the sun set was a garage door...

DUDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
first of all... since you made fun of my words yesterday, it's my turn. 'thanks goodness'? Is that an Ontario saying?
Second of all... you look so amazing, that I would like to rip that skirt off u and wear it as a full length dress from my forehead to my toes - in 5 inch heels. in other words, i'm short and it would never fit me in a million years.
I love the 3rd picture... cuz the sky kinda matches your skirt.
And last of all, you are lucky to have a husband who doesn't mind bringing a mermaid to his xmas party. i would not have gotten away with such a thing. maybe that's why i'm single? anyhoo matt's a good sport it seems ;)
Oh Jentine... this skirt is the reason why I keep falling in love with you....stylishly speaking of course.
Or maybe not...........:)
You look like a fashionable mermaid! It's GOOOOORGEOUS. I'm dying from how gorgeous it is and how you mellowed it out with the solid top. LOVE!
Love the skirt! And you just encouraged me to not hold back and get full out dressed up for the upcomig hoilday party at my hubby's work. :)

Is that the robot you're doing in the 3rd photo? I commend your style to the company party, but I'm a little worried about your dancing abilities.

Gorgeous skirt, those cows never knew what him 'em. Hope the people were more verbal with the praise.
I LOVE your necklace. Nothing beats a good necklace find like vintage!
Hahaha - I was just thinking about this skirt the other day and wondering if you'd worn it since the wedding. It is SO GOOD.
You seriously are my hero. Especially my sequin hero.
Sigh.

You look STUNNING! That skirt, that hair, gah, LOVE it so much!!!! Made me click through from Google Reader :-) Amazing!
Perfection. You are completely stunning in this outfit!
Can you hear me gasping over your outfit down here in Baltimore? You could attend the Oscars in this stunning ensemble and be the envy of all!
oh-em-gee! I just scrolled up and down like 5 times scrutinizing each picture so I could full take in the fabulous-ness that is this skirt. I'm swooning...and drooling...and swooning again. LOL!!!!!
I hope you had a FABULOUS time at the party! :)
Ok, that is definitely the best long skirt I have EVER seen. I need to move to Canada. AND I need to have your guts when it comes to my husband's work parties. No one there goes much fancier than a sweater dress. But thanks to you, I'm going for sequins this year :)
Love this! It reminds me of the Little Mermaid--all good memories, of course.
Look. At. YOU! I'm just gonna hop on the train and agree that you look FANTASTIC in this skirt. Seriously.

You so pretty :)
That skirt is fantastic! And I love how you paired it with a simple black shirt.
Seriously you are gorgeous, and that skirt is to die for!!! I would want to wear it everywhere including the grocery store. Who wouldn't want to buy groceries in a sequin skirt? Gah I love your blog!!!
Gorgeous! love how your wardrobe consists of unusual items which im so in love with!
Oh, I so love that skirt! I bet I'd love it so much if I had one, that I'd probably sleep in it...a girl can feel glam in her sleep too, right??
I love that mermaid skirt! I can't articulate how much I'm obsessed with this outfit and how excited I am that you got to wear it to a fun company party! Your hair looks perfect and your outfit is just the best damn thing I've seen.
I am dead! Somebody please revive me. And why did I die? Of pure jealousy of course. This skirt is to die for.....I am sure it was pure pleasure to wear it. You look gorgeous and I like how you styled it! Keep everything else simple and let the skirt shine on its own. Pure genius!
oooh la la.
fancy!
Def. a showstopper.
I'll bet all eyes were on YOU!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? That skirt is 1000% amazing! I LOVE it. And I'm not even a huge sequin fan! You look stunning. XO
