I’ve had longer length skirts on my mind lately. I feel they look so sophisticated and elegant compared to their mini counterparts, and this crisp full skirt is a current favorite in my wardrobe. In fact, I’ve had longer length skirts so much on my mind, that I’ve finally been tempted to give the midi-skirt a try. A notoriously difficult skirt length, especially if you’re short, it remains to be seen if I can get it to work for me, but I’ll happily give it the ol’ college try.

Adorbs!! Love the length on you.
Thanks Beth!
Very chic outfit.
Thank you Victoria. =)
Glad you’ve crossed over to the Dark Side :). I wear a lot of midis–so comfy and ladylike. This one looks so elegant on you! Love the hints of leopard in your belt and bracelet, too. Tres chic!
Thanks Tam! You always look so chic in skirts. =)
Such a gorgeous skirt! Loving the length on you!

Thanks Annick. =)
LOVE skirts like that!
Thank you Michelle!
I like it, very chic. Have you tried pinning the sides to see if you took a little of the width out of the bottom sides if it could look even more elegant? At that length I like it so it has plenty of swing but too much looks dowdy on me.
Thank you Tam! I haven’t tried pinning the sides, but I’m sure it could be done if anyone wanted less volume. I like the fullness at this length, but unfortunately it means it only really looks look with heels. No flats if I want to wear this skirt. =P
That skirt looks so cute on you!! I love that it’s perfectly “full”, if you know what I mean. I’ve been eyeing the midi-skirt as well but have had cold feet everytime I was about to click “add to cart”. I can’t wait to see the possibility of your outfit pairing with a midi-skirt! Have a great rest of the week! :)

Thanks Christine!
The watch looks huge on you
Ain’t nothing wrong with that.
I think this is a lovely length for skirts. I dunno about the calf length tho. I really don’t think it’s flattering on anyone! Maybe you’ll prove me wrong :)
Hmmm…maybe not. I’ve been playing with the midi-skirt I received in the mail the other day and it doesn’t seem to be working. =P
I’m on the shorter side, and I prefer midi over mini :)
Go for it!!
such a cute look!
