I got today's lovely piece from my gal Sonya Nimri. We have fun trading stuff to each other that we don't like for ourselves - I'll bring over shoes that don't work for me but are perfect for her and vice versa. I guess I just lucked out with this piece.

Does this skirt not scream 80s hair band? I smell Poison, Guns n Roses, Def Leppard...

...and Arrested Development (not the band) which starts back up on Netflix today!!! For the AD fans, this piece made me think of Tobias Fünke (David Cross) and his suffering from being a Never Nude. (For the non-fans, this Never Nude syndrome forces Tobias to never be nude, always wearing cut-off jorts under his clothes. Ridiculous and amazing.)

I'm so excited about the new season and I'm such a huge fan of the show that I went to the pop-up banana stand this past week in LA to indulge in an "On the go-go banana" (OK, just a regular chocolate covered one)...

...and thought this skirt would be my Never Nude uniform :)

I began by taking my scissors and hacking off the bottom, handkerchief-y/fringe-y portion of the skirt. I started at one side, where the edge of the V started...

...and made my way completely across to the other side. Even though keeping the skirt looking like this would be a mullet-tastic look...

...and completely Bret Michaels approved, I just couldn't bring myself to stop here. I trimmed the bottom layer to match and now had a perfectly normal looking denim skirt!

There were some super awesome (yeah, not so much) belt loops that I just couldn't wait to take off.

With the loops gone and the skirt freshly trimmed...

...I'm ready to never be naked again! I went with the cut-off skirt...

...while Tobias was keeping it real with the jorts. Nothing like trying on a pair of underwear like this...

The fringe paired with the dye colors and pattern on the denim made it feel super dated, however with the fringe gone I was totally on board with the extreme dark and light areas.
