Here's it is

my skirt

Does anyone know of a similar but less pricey one? Must be the same length (I'm 5'10) and most others I've seen appear to be above the knee.

Perhaps I just need to bite the bullet and buy it - cost per wear should be quite favourable anyway!

wait for the sale. it is bound to b ein the sale. have you tried on? prob. worth splashing out as it is something you could wear for a few years.

naffedoff · 10/02/2011 21:27

No, I haven't tried it on so it may well look crap anyway.
Button-throughs can gape horribly so I'll probabaly need a size 12 judging by the width of the ASOS model.
Will ponder a bit more and maybe give it a go.

it is a funny length

cyb · 10/02/2011 21:29

I bought a similar in White Stuff was about £45, I'm 5 9 and its just on knee

naffedoff · 10/02/2011 21:33

It's a midi length - all the rage apparently! I didn't try White Stuff in my web surfing so will do that now.

I like that length-looks good with woodeny platform sandals

naffedoff · 10/02/2011 21:37

I've got some neutral clog sandals from last year so thought they'd pair up well for that 70s vibe.

What do i know, listen to cyb, she is much more shallow fashionable than i am

Sariska · 10/02/2011 21:49

Yep, looks similar to the Havana Harbour denim skirt in White Stuff. I'm 5'10" and it's knee length on me.

DuplicitousBitch · 10/02/2011 21:51

but the whistles one has buttons! surely that is worth 40 quid?

Glamour mag have a 20% off voucher for Whistles, buy the mag and the skirt :)

gap have one that is very similar, but might be shorter than you'd like.

Piccalilli2 · 11/02/2011 10:41

Marks and Spencer have very similar (button through but slightly more pencil-ly than A line)£25. Bargain. I've worn mine almost constantly.

jamaisjedors · 11/02/2011 11:42

oh I like the Gap one;
