Review for LL Boot skirt A262069

Thanks for the review, Happy Lady, this is very helpful! My black skirt is on its way. I really love the mid-calf WK skirt, and your comparison encouraged me go ahead and order this one.

Happy Lady, I thought the same thing you did, that the bottom was going to be too wide and look a little dumpy. I was all st to have it taken in, but when I received it and tried it on it was perfect, whew! I think it's the QVC photo that is deceiving. It's a great skirt and I have nothing like it in a fabric like this. I love my WK version. I'm ordering two more and having them cut to right above my knee. I know I'll wear them all summer.

Have this Skirt in both the Black and Navy - love it - it's my favourite length - and the 'shape' is amazing! Just wish it had come in White (like the LL Pants).

Am currently 'living' in my WK Long Skirts and WK Pants (own 7 Pants) - have been great to wear during this DEEP FREEZE Winter. Will likely 'live' in my Linea Leisure Items during Spring and Summer.

Aren't those photos the worst. This skirt fits nothing like that horrible picture and the description is as bad. I love this type of skirt. I don't like my skirts to be skin tight but I do like them to fit. I was soo happy when I put this cutie on. I was also concerned this skirt would be an odd length and not be quite long enough; but it sure is a winner! Hope this line sells since it is on line only, I would love this skirt in grey and brown.

Morning Seka.....I asked Louis on his website if he would do this in white and he said it all depends on the success of LL since it is sold on line only. I would love a red skirt and other colors as I mentioned to Marilyn M.

My WK long skirts and pants and sweaters have been worth every penny this winter and look pristine after several launderings. Love these pants; such a shame; this is the end of the line. Glad I was a piggy and bought a lot of them. Louis warned us and Sheesh took the time to set up an exchange program to avoid returns but nothing worked so we better enjoy them while we can. Sad...

If we want the LL to be successful, we all need to do reviews here for sizing and on the item pages. "Word of mouth" is the key for this line to succeed. Glad we are all loving it so far. If the sizing issue can be resolved we have a chance of more items.

Happy Lady: You've summed up my response and observations on this Linea Leisure skirt exactly! I too am a little disappointed it's not an exact match to my other Linea dark navy pieces. In some cases it's close enough to wear together but not in most cases. On your clear expression on what I was feeling about this skirt I ordered what I think is the last tank in the matching navy and ordered a Linea Leisure jacket in the same navy.

That said, I'm LOVING this skirt with so many of the other bright and beautiful colors in my Linea wardrobe. I love it for example with nutmeg and also with hunter green. Incredible with butter yellow and Louis' gorgeous ivory - and of course the optic white. All the reds for spring etc. I like your comparison to the mid-calf WK skirts because I too have lived in these all winter and they look like new. I'm ordering the black in this skirt as well and like yourself and others, am really relieved that I don't have to take this skirt in. I too love the silhouette - long and lean, straight but easy to walk in with no kick pleat or side or back slit - so perfect under so many of my various jackets and sweater jackets. I'm loving it too for example under my vintage long Linea ottoman sweater in "malachite" (though they called the color something else back then) with gold buttons. Basically it will take me all spring, summer and fall to BEGIN to work through all of the potential color combos with these two skirts. And yes to possible future options in red, hunter green, white, ivory, dark brown and more!

I'm also loving the pants. Got one in navy before it went to waitlist, black is on waitlist and decided I better go for 2 in the white before they are gone.

Darn, I wish I was smart like you and ordered more of the WK pants---I have an original pair in Black and then got 2 Black, a Navy and a Hunter in the new version---so 5 pairs....but I should have gotten a couple more for backups...put them away for later years.

So glad you love the new skirt Happy Lady!

I have resisted this skirt because I thought I would not want a longer skirt for summer. Now you all have me re-thinking. Enablers!
