[Bodyline] L398 + ACC1087

L398 - wine

Certainly not my first Bodyline purchase. More like my second! My first Bodyline purchase review needs to be tweaked a bit more (better photos, really..) so I'm posting the one that is good to go! ♥ 

Lace detail.

Buttons close-up.

Print detail.

I wore it for Valentine's Day so here's an outfit photo with it!

I'm not crazy about outfit because I was hoping to get a matching red top but I cut it too close to V-Day! D: Derp procrastination!

Here's a close up of the back ribbons that had to be sewn and are barely holding on.

The last three pictures are proof to my gripe about this skirt: When I tried it on a second time to figure out what top to wear with it, the zipper got caught in the fabric. I had to try not to rip the fabric while jiggling the zipper free. But in that process one of the ribbons in the back ripped out of the loops. From there I noticed the ribbon is practically held together by the not-so-well-enforced loops. I was able to fix the ribbon by reinforcing it but the rest of it worries me for the next time I want to wear this skirt. 

So if you're having doubts on whether or not you want this skirt just BE WARY OF THE BACK RIBBONS' LOOPS!!! Some basic sewing skills will suffice. 

As for a close-up and itty bitty review on the accessory:

There's something about it that doesn't "WOW!" me when I saw it up close. But it goes really well with the skirt! It's cute but at the same time I don't feel like it was worth the $7. It's unlikely that I'd get it in another color.
