I wear it with a fitted tee so my waist is defined. It doesn't ride up at all and the hip area is smoother. The reason I decided to try the larger size was because the back darts seemed in the wrong place, once I tried the size larger everything fell into place. I've worn it with ballet flats and flat peep toes, love both. Hope you can make it work, I wear mine a lot.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17605411.post-19502051834452969032009-05-09T21:36:00.000-04:002009-05-09T21:36:00.000-04:00I actually love this look, but I agree with your s...I actually love this look, but I agree with your sister that if YOU don't like it there is no sense in keeping it. I love high waisted skirts though...maybe it's because of my short and stumpy legs.

So if you can maintain only a model walk and never make any lateral moves, I say keep it. If not, you kept the tags on!!Kristinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17605411.post-83524644633056810922009-05-09T03:57:00.000-04:002009-05-09T03:57:00.000-04:00I like the skirt and think it looks good on you.
