I have been so intrigued by the hi-low skirt trend. I knew I wanted to try it eventually, and then the Lauren Conrad blogging contest happened and gave me an opportunity to do just that! Here's how I wound up with the outfits above: they sent us 9 items from the Lauren Conrad for Kohl's collection, including this skirt. Our first challenge was to use 3 of the items they sent us (I chose the skirt, shoes and jacket) to come up with two outfits - one for sightseeing and one for a date. They did not ask us to post about it, but since this is my first time wearing a hi-low skirt, I wanted to share it with you! (I'm also hoping you will help me out by voting for me and/or leaving a comment. If I win, I will give away one of the prizes, a $500 Kohl's gift card, to you guys right here on the blog! Please go here to vote and comment.) So, tell me - are you a fan of hi-low skirts? Would you wear these looks?
