Spring skirts

This is IM's new floral skirt-A262843

And these from GS- A262238

At this point in my life, "yes" to all except the florals. In a heartbeat. Only a few years ago I would have said yes to all of them.

Thanks for sharing; those are lovely. My problem is that I have yet to find a designer or store that offers multiple length. They are showing them all right at mid knee length. On me it would be above my knee...not an attractive length. At least a shorter woman has the option of shortening if too long. A few companies are show midi length that is a few inches longer.

After a few years of thigh exposure and the now classic maxi, there was no place for designers and brand manufacturers to go with length, which they would promote as the latest great thing we all must have, other than at the knee/or right below the knee.

In other words it's a trend. For those who don't like it there just won't be as many options for you in the skirt/dress area this season. This is always the case when a certain length is the hot look. I'm sure women who didn't want their thighs exposed, had to leave a lot of dresses and skirts on the racks for the past couple of years.

Here are some options for $100 or less (Nordies).

The length of skirts/dresses is a deal-breaker, I realize. I buy almost exclusively from the Linea line on QVC. However, many a skirt and dress I have sorrowfully passed up because for me, a shorty, they would end at or above the knee. That is not a flattering look on me. The length of the skirts pictured above is right up my alley, so to speak. That is why I said yes to the skirts.

If only the manufacturers could routinely produce longer lengths on skirts and dresses, more people would be able to buy. I think this is true, but I could be wrong. And yes, there will be that repugnant $20 alteration fee for me, the shorty, but at least I would have a choice of whether or not I would buy the garment.

Thanks, just got the gingham one, I happen to love skirts, I do buy from talbot, when they go on sale, mostly.
