I tried a new fabric for a spring / summer skirt– a silky knit material (and that is as technical as I get). It is super comfortable and cool when wearing.
Attempt #1:
Note to self: Apply stage makeup prior to picture taking so as not to look like an albino ghost.
Somehow my scissors developed a mind of their own and cut this skirt a little too short… so I can’t wear it at my natural waist AND to work at the same time. It’s also not exactly cut even… but we’re pretending that was intentional. BUT, as I said, I like the fabric and shape– it’s a little more full, but can get away with it because it’s a lighter weight fabric. Great for summer.
Attempt # 2:
Ah, that length is much better.
And here you may note that rather than putting wet hair in a bun, I actually took 5 minutes and straightened it styled it on this day.
Oh, and I tried as I might to make this a “midi” length skirt… but could not get past the fact that it made my hips look huge! I mean, I know they have birthed 2 babies but still. Was it the fabric, the style, or just me??
