ah help I give up, any ideas where I coul get a nice knee length skirt in brown?

[harpsichordsgoingbangandwoosh]

perhaps cord?
looked all over today but no luck

here) is one but I don't like it look get ink{http://www.monsoon.co.uk/invt/11202625 his one instead

oh dear

i need a lie down I think

this one is fun

this one is dull

god that monsoon one is hideoso
I will look like sexless maiden aunt
first one nice but not, strictly, brown or cord

small hi-jack - what are whitestuff sizes like? I've never bought any before but as dh is away for the weekend I feel a saturday evening spree coming on...I'm basically about a size 9.

no

I think you should forget brown cord and get orange silk

that is what I am trying to convey here

Am not getting my head around 'brown' 'kneelength' and 'nice skirt' occupying same sentence.....

next

i'm surprised button skirts are making a comeback

yes well brown cord skirt will compliment rest of wardrobe and open up outfit opportunities
orange silk skirt will require entire new wardrobe

also shoes
bag
and coat
possibly new car
do you see where I am going here

moondog, I already have one lovely knee length brown skirt but have horrible bleachy mark on it I think it was diesel

oh get a brown marker pen and colour over the bleach mark

ta daaa

I have the right skirt, in black

it is knee length and cute and flippy. I want one in brown, and possibly purple as well

I was thinking of that

is that next one a tad long and frumpy? it is a good price though abd we do have a next so I could whizz in and try on

Mmmmm,actually yes I too have fairly pleasant brown cord skirt.
Tis shin length though.
I may well wear it to work tomorrow.

YES knee length and cute and flippy
that is what I need
I desire it
it will make my life complete

Machine washable wool - in camel?

bugger I KNEW Boden would have one
£50! though and somehow a tiny bit too....... Boden

make one?

I have to defend the brown skirt. I have a jigsaw one - standard three tiers cotton/linen mix jobby (and no, it's not a ra-ra skirt) just below the knee and it has been worth it's weight in gold. worn with flip flops for casual summer, with strappy heels for smart, with boots in winter, worn with elegant bodeny/jigsawry tops for work, with vest-tops, with cardigans, with beige, with brown, with blue, with pink. it has been the dog's bollocks. so I think harpsi is seeking that thing that I think has a name - a very important bit of your wardrobe that works with everything and lasts for years. she is a wise woman.

(had thought of this one but out of stock).

I missed out green. goes with green too.

yes I Seek the Holy Grail of Skirts
come, join with me
