So I realize I'm completely late to the party, but this skirt is amazing!!! I kept reading rave reviews, but never purchased because I never had time to go to the store to figure out my size. I ended up buying online during an amazing sale, and let me just say, I want EVERY color now! I decided to purchase a size 2, even though I'm usually a 4-6, and it fit perfectly (I'm 5'9 and 125ish BTW). So thrilled with this skirt! It's not too short, and I LOVE the high waist, which gives it class and sexiness at the same time. I recommend trying it on in the store to figure out your size, since reviews seem to vary about the sizing. I say size down (or 2 =)
I had been wanting to order this skirt for some time. I read all of the reviews over and over and over...:-) I finally ordered it as part of a Christmas present to myself during one of the many November sales and I'm so glad I did!! It is beautiful!!!! The fit is awesome. I am 5'8" 158 lbs and the size 10 was perfect and still had a little "wiggle" room. I have more of an athletic build (code for broad shoulders and little to no hips :-)) but the high waist accentuates my legs, butt, and waist perfectly. I think this skirt could work for just about any body type, as long as you find your correct size, you will look and feel GREAT!!! :-)
Love, love, love this skirt. It is extremely flattering and does run a little big. I recommend going to the store to try it on thou because my boss has this skirt too and she said it ran small for her.
