Friday I'm in Love: skirts and dresses

Last weekend, I made a couple of personal style goals for the summer and one of them was to wear a skirt or dress once a week.  This isn't a *huge* goal for me - I do like wearing dresses and skirts (especially in the summer), but I find pants and capris so much more versatile and therefore have more of those in my closet.  Also, a lot  of my dresses are more on the formal side, so I tend to save them for weddings and such.  So I'm going to try to get more skirts and dresses into my wardrobe and also find new ways to wear the ones I have.  My first step in that direction was to treat myself to an early birthday (it's next week!) present from Shop Girls.  I bought a 'drayton' dress by my mom made that and I love it!  Check out the gorgeous vintage fabric:

I can't wait to wear it out for birthday drinks with friends next week.  But I'm still on the lookout for other great handmade and/or vintage skirts and dresses, so for this week's Friday I'm in Love feature, here are some of my favourites on Etsy.
