I could have easily just texted Kate about this, but I also wanted to ask all of you.
You know this skirt. You might love this skirt or simply love to hate this skirt, but it is THE INSTAGRAM SKIRT.
If you still do not know to which skirt I am referring, it is the Realisation Par “Naomi” skirt in the wild things print.
Depending on where you live, you’ve probably seen at least 80 different girls wearing this exact skirt or imitations of this exact skirt.
The further we roll into spring (and the more I see people wearing it with cute tank tops), the more I consider purchasing it. Or purchasing a dupe because this skirt is $180 and I am a $6 oat milk matcha away from being flat broke.
But is it too late to get this skirt????
It’s been around for a while. It’s cycled through all my favorite influencers like a Glossier rep code.
There is already an Instagram dedicated to mocking the women who wear it! Which is:
A. To be expected because god forbid anyone let women enjoy things
B. KIND OF FUCKED UP!
C. Okay, a tiny bit funny
It seems to have become a beacon of basic-ness, like Kylie Lip Kits and Lulu Lemon (two things I heartily enjoy but do cringe a tiny bit at indulging in).
But it would look SO cute at the beach or in the desert (PALM SPRINGS 2K19) or on the street or just like hanging up in my closet taunting me to wear it everywhere.
I don’t even know how it’s going to fit! I’ve never even tried it on!
But still the question remains…..should I get this skirt? Is it too late? Has it become passé?
