You know when you get a vision in your head for an item of clothing that you have never actually seen?? I have a hankering for a really casual skirt made of sweatshirty fabric, straight, just above the knee.

Kind of like this but in my head the colour is nicer and the fabric is more distressed/brushed. The kind of thing you'd wear to the beach with your perfectly tousled tawny hair and gleaming bronzed skin... Since I am pale short and plumpish sz12/14, I dont know what I would do with such a thing, but the heart wants what the heart wants!!!

Has anyone ever seen such a thing? Ta!

[http://www.surfdome.com/rvca_skirts_-rvca_slow_light_skirt-_navy_heather-54925] this kind of thing? lots of nice ones on that site - check out surf labels like roxy, Oneill, billabong, protest etc

Thanks Mewkins, loads of good ones on that site,
this one would be perfect if it was shorter. The one you linked would be perfect if it was straighter!! I couldn't carry off that volume.

blue2, I'm apple shaped, so A-lines dont suit, I need straight...
