I bought the skirt with the pink roses.  It was very pretty, but I had to return it.  I love skirts with these kind of pleats.  I asked the question if the pleats went all the way to the back.  A previous buyer answered, "yes,"  She was wrong.  It has pleats in the front and gathering in the back.  Pleats look elegant and allows the skirt to lay nicely.  Gathering looks cheap and makes it look like you have a puffy butt and hips.  I bought a size large according to the chart.  The chart is correct.  However if you have a 31" waist and your hips and chest are larger, good luck getting the skirt on.  Even though the waist fits, it does need to slide over your hips or shoulders.  Therefore, you might need to buy bigger.  I have three skirts at home with these kind of pleats and two of them have the same kind of fabric.  However, the pleats go all the way around and they have a zipper.  The price on these particular skirts are good, but I'd rather pay more for the extra quality.  My skirts at home are longer too, which I like.  These skirts are shorter.  Again, the measurements are correct, but when you wear a skirt that flares, the flare automatically shortens the skirt.
