Gwyn’s Spring Basics, Foxified: Denim Skirt

If you subscribe to Gwyneth Paltrow’s blog, Goop, you would’ve received an email a week or so ago with her picks for Spring. I’d add almost each and every item to my shopping list – if I were married to a rockstar, had an endless supply of cash, and enjoyed a lifestyle where I could wear heels and silk most days.

Yet the reality for this blogger is slightly different.

So with the help of my buddy A.J., I’ve trawled the ‘net to find the Fox in Flats take on Gwyn’s spring basics. We’ll be sharing them over the next couple of weeks as we ease ourselves into the season.

They’re practical, comfortable, gorgeous, and you don’t have to be an Oscar winner to be able to afford them.

    Love the Country Road cowl neck top. I would like a longer skirt thought myself. Any recommendations?

      Hi Christine,
      Actually I spotted a couple online at Country Road that may be better if you’re not a fan of a shorter skirt. 
      This one is button down  (good for coverage but you can still undo a couple of the bottom buttons if you want to flash a little more leg) and has cute pockets http://shop.countryroad.com.au/#%3Fgclid=CMi39qWxiKsCFQo7pAodH3Oh2w&page=/Shop/Womenswear/Apparel/Dresses_%26_Skirts%5B3%5D.htm&product=/Shop/Womenswear/Apparel/Dresses_%26_Skirts/WSK817I065/Denim–A-Line-Skirt.html
      This one looks longer and if more streamlined: http://shop.countryroad.com.au/#%3Fgclid=CMi39qWxiKsCFQo7pAodH3Oh2w&page=/Shop/Womenswear/Apparel/Dresses_%26_Skirts.htm&product=/Shop/Womenswear/Apparel/Dresses_%26_Skirts/WSK824C734/A-Line-Skirt.html

      Just be sure to experiment with the shoes you wear at these longer lengths if you are planning to wear flats. x

    You rock more than Gwyneth, o Foxy One! Love your ensemble more, heck, yours looks like it’s worth  $6000 buckaroos. Job well done! xxx

      Thanks Jess! That’s gorgeous feedback x

    Definitely love your style over Gwenyth. Her denim skirt brings back bad early ’90′s memories!! Do love the bag though x

      Ha ha thanks Jodi. I think she’s awesome though. Wish I could get my hands on her satchel, only I don’t think I’d ever feel comfy having the kids juice boxes, spare undies and wipes banging around in there… ;)

    I have been coveting that skirt since I saw it. Even tempted to buy on-line when it went on sale on the SM site…but, walking past good old CR last week there was one in the window. I mean EXACTLY the same. When I went to pay for it I said to the sales girl “Man, you’ve saved me about $400 – I nearly bought a Stella McCartney that looks a lot like this one” and she said “Oh yeah, we copy her all the time…” Lucky I wasn’t an under-cover IP lawyer… :-/

    I love those ASOS lace up shoes….if only my calves were thinner :)  must do something about that, eventually!

    Hi Fox in Flats!
    Love your witty and clever blog!  Great post re affordable Foxified wardrobe. The jacket suggestion is a great idea.  There are so many cream/white blazers around…nice to see a more casual style that will work with denim!

Hi I'm Andrea, and Fox In Flats is my baby.

Here, we're sharing tips, ideas and inspiration to make it much, much easier to navigate motherhood in style.
