Anyone bought one recently?

I'm looking for one that's not too short! Slightly a line if possible!

Thanks

Warehouse faux leather is really good - can't tell it from the real thing

zoosie I got a 12 instead of my usual 10 so it would sIt a bit lower rather than on my true waist. I am 5ft 6 and it hits a few inches above my knee.

I bought a gorgeous fake leather black pencil skirt for £10 from Primark but that was about a month ago.

I have 2 from new look

I have loads of real leather skirts, try All Saints, Reid’s and Whistles.

Ha, zoosie,we will be skirt twins as well as size twins! I have worn it loads, mainly with fine-knit jumpers. Footwear-wise, with black Stan Smiths, chunky brogues, Chelsea boots, and DM boots, always 100 denier opaques. The leather is really soft so it can look a bit bashed up after an evening sitting in it. I hang it in the bathroom for a day after wearing it before putting it in the wardrobe.

I also have a White Company one which doesn’t have the pleat, which I wear to work. It’s from last year but I imagine they do a version of it still. I have the 10 in that and could probably have gone to an eight. The leather on it is thicker and less soft.

I tried a number on in Reiss (real leather) and none of them sat right (especially not for the price). I was so disappointed!

I have the faux leather warehouse one on order now, hoping it's a step up from my coated one which I wear a lot.
