Thrifty Wife Happy Life

Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Denim Skirt Fall Look

October 12, 2018 by Katie Haller

Hey guys! I’m so happy it’s Friday.  For some reason this week felt long, yet it seemed to go by quickly for me.  Which is always a good thing!  I have to say that I love putting together outfit posts together like this one.  If I could, I would spend all day, every day putting together new outfit posts and getting creative with my wardrobe.  In reality, I can’t spend all day, every day putting together outfits, so that’s why I can’t share everything I’d like to.  Luckily, I’ve had some extra time in the last couple of weekends to put together some fall outfits that I can’t wait to share. 

For today’s outfit post, I wanted to share this denim skirt that I found last spring at ThredUP.  It’s a mid-length raw hem skirt from Forever 21.  This skirt got me through my summer as an easy bottom to wear to work during the week.  I love this skirt so much, so I wanted to share a way to wear it this fall.  I’m a firm believer that clothes don’t have seasons.  You should be able to wear almost all your clothes for any season you want.  Everything besides heavy sweaters and boots in summer and sandals when it’s snowing…obviously.  It’s all about the way you style it that defines what season it is.  Since fall in Las Vegas is still pretty warm, I used fall neutral colors to style my denim skirt.  To pull them all together, I wore my favorite leopard clutch.  A pop of leopard always adds fall to any outfit.  Scroll down for all the details on this look. 

This look is 90% thrifted, so, unfortunately, you can’t find my exact look in stores, however, I’ve linked some affordable options for you below.

I don’t share my husband much on here, but this I don’t share my husband much on here, but this trend felt like a fun way to look back at our story! I had to dig deep on Facebook for some of these photos! 💕

He was the one who told me that shopping wasn’t a hobby and I needed to find a free hobby to keep me busy when we were first married. 😅 So I started a blog about living life to the fullest and dressing my best on a super tight budget.

Little did we know that “free hobby” would not only one day turn into my job, but it would also be a way to fund my shopping habit. Even helping me become a smarter shopper along the way! 😉

Fun fact: The name “Thrifty Wife, Happy Life” came from him. When making big decisions, Kevin always said “happy wife happy life”. So when I was brainstorming a name for my blog that popped into my head and I decided to do a little play on words. The original name I was going to pick was “Katie’s Closet”. I’m glad I went with the name I did!
