I've done it again. I've bought another ugly skirt from Monsoon.

I get carried away when they're reduced. And I think "gosh, that's practical for work!"

So, it's stretchy t-shirt material, maxi, side splits to knee, straight, waste tie thing (like ornamental belt). And it's black, with a blueish, greenish floral design. Slightly Liberty, but not.

My question: is there any way to make this stylish? What should I wear it with?

I've tried to find a pic of it online but can't.

When it's stretched around your sitting knees because you forgot everything your mum told you and didn't hitch it up!!!!

I wasn't knocking it op, I was just reassuring you that I think it fine for work! 😉

It's not that bad but yes, a holiday will need to be booked.Grin

Little white t-shirt, sunshine and a gin and tonic would accessorise it nicely.

Loved the Thai fisherman comment though - spot on. Sorry OP.

Look at the trees and weather behind you! I'm jealous.

Crowdblundering · 30/01/2017 20:45

I really like it

piefacerecords · 30/01/2017 20:59

It's a nice skirt but it's v summery - keep it to wear with a vest top a flip flops.

I love it OP! Smile

Aww, thank you for the positivity!

I will always think of it as my Thai Fisherman skirt now, but I'll still wear it :)

Go for it OP! It suits your figure and if you're in sunny climes Thailand you'll look great.
