olive gathered skirt: mccalls 7960 view b

Hey everybody! Happy Friday! Today I’m sharing my new favorite skirt! I love an easy, versatile skirt and this one is just that! My day to day style is very casual, relaxed, and comfortable so this skirt will be worn with sneakers and a denim jacket majority of the time! Besides it being so versatile, I love the Olive Linen I used to make it with. It makes it easy to dress it up or down with such a great neutral! Let’s get into more details of it!
