I really like this skirt...  Very much!  It's long enough to be worn like a lady and a bit tight to remind everyone that you one.  It's made to be a higher waist, and the belt makes it pretty flattering.  I'm not sure that this skirt is made to last forever, but it's not cheap-looking and holds up well.  I was so pleased with this skirt that I bought it again in another color.. okay, two other colors.
