I am quite taken with this floral tiered skirt from local label Lili.

While the words “floral tiered skirt” usually conjure up images of the mid-to-late 1980s, and I am usually thoroughly anti- anything 80s, for some reason this skirt doesn’t horrify me as it technically should.

In fact, I think it would look really nice for a winter night out with opaque black tights (Leona Edmiston, of course) and the black platform heels that are all the rage right now (such as the Wittner heels here. I own them and yes it was probably a stupid purchase).

The skirt retails for $139. Lili is stocked in Myer and selected boutiques around Australia.
