Has anyone got the White Stuff denim skirt that is linked to on earlier post? If so, how long is it?

LoveMyLapTop · 09/02/2009 21:45

God I dont know what i linked to but i dont wear menopause jeans like that

have a couple of the cord skirts from kew - their sizing is generous I think - am a 10 there but normally 12. I live in skirts in the winter with my boots!

mileniwmffalcon · 09/02/2009 21:51

white stuff skirts are all 4" too long.

ABetaDad · 09/02/2009 21:54

If you are over 20 years old - I would wear a very long coat to hide it.

A denim skirt is never a good look for a woman - alright for a girl.

ramonaquimby · 09/02/2009 21:54

ignore abetadad

Lizzylou · 09/02/2009 21:56

Abetadad
Agree, ignore

C'mon - who do you know who seriously looks good in a denim skirt over the age of 20?

Don't get me wrong - I like a woman in a skirt - in fact I plead with my wife for her to wear them instead of trousers. Short, long, wrap round, A line, pleated. I love em all.

Its just denim skirts that are for a certain time in a woman's life and over 20 is not it.

ABetaDad - why are you being such a perve?

All you are doing is going around the message boards stirring up trouble. FO.

There's not a lot that doesn't look good with a denim skirt. I love boots and white linen shirt, chunky jewellery...

AnyFuckerForAShiteSoppyCard · 10/02/2009 08:16

chip, he (it?)is a fairly crap troll

MrsWilburton · 10/02/2009 10:24

I think abetadad is allowed to have an opinion guys! really!
yes kew skirts are very generous in size

ChippingIn · 10/02/2009 14:18

MrsWilburton - did you read the other thread he started and other posts he has made? He just likes to stir up trouble - well, he can go and do it somewhere appropriate not on a genuine board.

ooh lots has happened on my lowly denim skirt thread since yesterday !! My skirt is from Dotty P's and was just £25. I was paying for said stripey top and the assistant was wearing it, before I knew it I had asked her about it, she'd whisked a 14 off the rack and it was paid for! Had planned to wear today but snowy here again so didn't want to go out in cowboy boots

I'm saying nothing.

Firstly, thick tights, coloured ones can look good. Flat knee high boots only realistic option at the moment. I am a big fan of the 'Emily' style from Hobbs. Ballet or any flat pumps good for warmer weather though.

Long C&C california vest or t shirt with shrug or cropped cardi.
