Review: Zipper Back Knit Skirt

15, Sep 2009

Zipper Back Knit Skirt ($7.50)
Rating: Buy It Never
Fit: I picked up this skirt after seeing the simple knit skirt. I though for sure I’d like it better since an exposed zipper makes everything look cooler. From the front, everything was fine. Then I turned around and it looked like I was one of those cats [...]

Review: Simple Knit Skirt

13, Sep 2009

Simple Knit Skirt ($7.80)
Rating: Wear it Forever
Fit: With control-top tights or a pair of Spanx underneath, this skirt fits like a flattering glove. If you have thinner legs, you might want to try the shorter version (I couldn’t find it online but I bought it at my local store). If your body is pretty proportional, [...]

Review: Zip Front Leopard Skirt

11, Sep 2009

Zip Front Leopard Skirt ($29.00)
Rating: Trendy For Now
Fit: I surprisingly loved this skirt. It doesn’t seem too much like my sort of thing, but I kinda wanted to buy it after trying it on–the colors and leopard print (something I usually HATE) are just so captivating. The only weird thing about it is F21’s insistence [...]

Bubble Hem Satin Skirt ($19.80)
Rating: Buy It Never
Fit: I think this photo of me in the skirt says it all. I’m all for volume, but seriously, wtf?
Versatility: Throw on some bunny ears and you can look just like a Louis Vuitton model.
Trend Factor: Volume is all the rage but extravagance only works for the runway [...]

Review: Rose Party Skirt w/ Sash

4, Sep 2009

Rose Party Skirt w/ Sash ($19.80)
Rating: Wear it Forever
Fit: I don’t know why Forever 21 puts these wrapping-paper like ribbons on so many clothes. But take off the sash and you have a flouncy skirt that shows off your waist and hides your hips.
Versatility: Check out how I styled a similar skirt three totally different [...]

25, Aug 2009

Pleated Polka Dot Skirt ($14.80)
Rating: Buy It For Now
Quality: It’s just a cute, basic polka dot skirt.  Doesn’t look cheap, doesn’t look expensive. But at $14.80, it’s probably the perfect high quality: low price ratio.
Versatility: I actually bought  this one. It has become part of my weekend wardrobe. Perfect for the beach or backyard BBQs [...]

Review: Exposed Zip Front Coloblocked Skirt

Exposed Zip Front Coloblocked Skirt ($24)
Rating: Buy It Never
Fit: At first glance, this skirt looks just the trendy bandage skirts on celebrities. But the minute you put it on, you can see all the puckering at the seams.
Versatility: You could wear the belt with jeans then cut off the zipper to make a [...]

Trend Factor: Volume is in for fall. But the draped pockets make you look like you have saggy outer thighs.
Demographic: Nobody
