I am so in love.

Ive had this skirt in mind for a long, long time and finally decided to try it. I wish I would have sooner!!

First let me say that everything people say about the color is true. It is completely inaccurate as pictured by the seller. I found the customer photos helpful but I assume there is probably a bit of variation from green-grey to blue-grey. Mine falls more on the blue side. Since it is cotton, and I LOVED the deep blue-green pictured I thought id Just dye it, easy peasy. When it came I actually like it so much Im not going to touch it!

The bustles are easy to figure out, and being 59 and naturally high waisted I adore it let down as well. Nothing is ever long enough for me and I revel in it. Its slimming, and makes me look taller (both things backed up by my husband who notices NOTHING, and who furthermore offered to buy me a backup on the spot the second I tried this on).

Its soft and ultra lightweight lovely for hot weather. It is a little see-through on first glance, but once on all the fabric moves in a way that completely nullifies the issue. The delicacy of the material means it won't be especially durable, but I wouldnt dream of sending it back.

I typically wear a 2x and purchased a 3x in this skirt due to the listed measurements and the fact I have a mama belly. While the waistband itself is quite comfortable whether I wear it high or low, it started a little snug and clingy in a way that ruled out crop tops for me. After wearing for a day, it did relax some, so well see. There is plenty of stretch for curvy shapes!

My only gripe is the the waist area is super itchy. Im not sure if its the thread used for the serging at the seams or what, but at this price point I would have expected at very least a partial lining.

My only other complaint is that it doesnt come in more color options. Not even the black and white versions come in this size. Offer them and Ill buy them!! Line the waist and Ill buy one for every skirt loving woman I know.
