Lookbook: Peaches for under $50 and Tiny Skirt Alert

Sorry I have been MIA for the past several days....just got back from visiting my family in the Midwest!!! If I haven't responded to emails or post questions, I will tomorrow!!:) I was really excited to shop at different places other than where I live. Here is an outfit for under $50 at H & M I put together:
Tank: H & M - size XS $5.95 (similar HERE and HERE)
Skirt: H & M- size 2 $29.95 (similar HERE)
Necklace: H & M $12.95 (similar HERE)
Shoes: Aldo Taupe Patent- size 35 (similar HERE)

Tiny skirt alert!! This skirt runs really small! It fits me perfectly but I could have sized up if I wanted to. I like how fitted it is and the waist fit snug without being too tight. It's hard to tell by the lighting but the outfit is PEACH. The skirt has a really pretty texture which you will see a close-up of!
I was really hoping to get tons of goodies going back home but I was really disappointed! I think it may have to do with the timing of the season. I normally go home in early June but this year I had to wait until late August which all the cute Summer clothes are now gone.
I love this necklace! It's a ribbon necklace so you can adjust the length but I wanted to incorporate it with the tank so it looks like it's part of the tank. I thought it went well with the plain tank and textured skirt. And for the price of this outfit- which I love myself a good bargain, I was quite pleased!
Here you can see more of the skirt....
I had to hurry because the sun was going down...LOL
I wanted to do one last Summery outfit before Fall fashion hits...I prefer Summer/Spring clothes rather than Fall/Winter.
Here the outfit looks white but it's not!
Ah ha! More of my backyard....I'm testing out my new tripod!
Below is a close-up of the necklace so you can see the details...soo pretty!

And here is the skirt texture and color....its much prettier in person and in different lighting.

I am trying to catch up on all the blogs so sorry I haven't been commenting on anyone's. I hope to catch up in the next day or two!!! Sorry this is such a short post- in a big hurry again!! That's all from me! I am very much looking forward to Labor Day weekend shopping!!!
