Nothing like a quick and easy circle skirt to start your week right. Spring has finally sprung here in Boston, so I’m breaking out the maxis! This one is a 1/4 circle made using Fickle Sense’s tutorial. I’m actually not usually a huge fan of the big flowy skirt, but I think a 1/4 circle makes the perfect maxi. It’s not too big and billowy for my taste, and it has such a sleek waistline.
The skirt is made up in rayon challis. You might recognize the red in the waistband from my last post. It’s great for a skirt like this, light and airy without being see-through.
I didn’t think a lot about pattern placement because I frankly I don’t usually sew with prints. The end result is that I don’t love what’s going on in the back here, but I can live with it.
My trusty photographer and I traipsed around Boston this weekend enjoying the weather, and I snuck in some photos everywhere we went. This one was taken in the public garden.
And in this week’s episode of not my brownstone….
I think the skirt is really complimented by this pricy South End real estate!
Stay tuned for upcoming adventures…..I bought the craftsy class on working with leather!

It is really a stylish skirt! The shoes are really cute too. As well as the hat!
thanks! I bought those shoes on black friday and waited the whole long winter to break them out!
Very nice! Also, ‘Not My Brownstone’, I love it! 😉
haha, I specialize in photographing myself in front of high end condos….especially the ones I don’t own….so, all of them…
I pretty much consider the whole South End my personal back drop. So classy. Even the rats are cute in the South End.
The skirt looks great! Great use of the 1/4 circle skirt pattern. I agree, I like the not so flowy 1/4 🙂
Thanks! and thanks for the great tutorial 🙂
