Happy Wednesday! It’s time for another edition of From Grandma with Love! This is what I wore to church way back when in February when it was still a little chilly. And I promise that less than an inch of my midriff was showing in church! I’m wearing one-half of a velvet suit set.
Midi skirts have always been off my radar because I felt they hit my legs in an unflattering (aka shortening) way. However, I was pleasantly surprised when I wore this velvet beauty! A midi skirt can look quite modern when paired with the right pieces.
The Style Rx: Wear a midi skirt with heels for a feminine look, especially if you’re height challenged like myself! They look wonderful with anything from a tee to a turtleneck. Stripes are always a good idea when dealing with a solid midi skirt.
I just wanted to say thank you for all the sweet words on my “Confession” post. I don’t always open up about myself/feelings so thank you for being so wonderful. Y’all are the bestest!

Oh I love the velvet material! I had a dress when I was younger that had a velvet ribbon on it, so many memories of playing with it when I was little!
Your striped top is awesome too – those sleeves! Looks great with the higher waisted skirt :)

Gorgeous black & white classic look :) hehe I wore a crop top to my sister’s baby shower and my mother was slightly horrified even though you could only tell if I lifted my arms above my head (i.e. NEVER!)
