Skye Short Pencil Skirt

Lovely fitted smart pencil skirt in great quality fabric. I bought the violet and the navy. I’m a UK size 14 with quite a narrow waist and found the size Medium was the best fit. I’m 5 feet 6” and this sits at a very flattering length just a little above my knees.

This skirt is excellent quality. The material is quite thick so definitely not at all see through. The lovely bright purple is very true to how it appears on screen. I disagree with the reviews that say this comes up small: I usually wear a size M in Kettlewell skirts with an elastic waist; I’m a UK size 12-14. Based on others reviews I initially ordered a size L but it was too big, so I should have just ordered my usual size.

I bought ultra violet and navy blue and, due to previous comments, I went for the large rather than medium. I am a Spring and both colours are perfect. The large is tight and a little more so since washing but it is a stretchy and fairly thick material so hope it will give a little with more wear. These will be perfect for winter wear as well as autumn but would be too hot to wear during summer months.

Despite the lovely substantial material, and lovely colors, I thought the color purple was more for winter than spring, I am a bright spring and I couldn't pull it off, the sizing was too small also, as I am a curvy person, this was not the right shape for me, so unfortunately had to return If I got the sizing right at least I would have kept it, as I like the skirt, but I use size medium and even the large was a bit too tight

Fabric felt a little cheap - didn�t have the confidence to keep it as the waistband looked like it would be liable to crinkle and fold over after wearing and washing - also odd that it didn�t match other purple tops I bought - I love your variety of colours it you do make it hard to carry an outfit colour through which is importante for shorties
