Oh my goodness I love this skirt!!!!!!! I have tried several different pencil skirts and they have all ended up too tight and too short. This one fits PERFECTLY!!!!!! I am 54 and 104 pounds. I ordered a medium. Im normally an XS, so 2 sizes up as recommended. It hits a little below my knees and its just the right fit... snug enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to show you're a lady. Its easy to move in and looks great! Also super comfy! I was concerned about the quality from the photos but its nice and thick and very good quality. I haven't washed it yet so hopefully it won't shrink. I am very please with this skirt and definitely recommend it!!! I will buy it again when I wear out this one!
