"I'm always nervous about looking too schoolgirlish (I already get carded at R-rated movies, so I don't need to look any younger!), so I typically avoid things like pleated skirts and bows. But, this pleated skirt comes in an unexpected green leather, and the bow is so oversized and Isabella Blow-amazing, that I couldn't resist. Plus, the creeper wedges help keep the saccharine at a manageable level."
