I am learning to love what I got and make stuff that works for me!<br />I think you look curvy and gorgeous but I think a darker Plantain under your top may give you some 'wearing' confidence.<br />xx Nmotherof5https://www.blogger.com/profile/10195031588051037622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864688565474192425.post-29270952685758993082016-02-02T20:29:43.106-05:002016-02-02T20:29:43.106-05:00You know, I have to tell you, I feel this same way...You know, I have to tell you, I feel this same way about pencil skirts as well! So I totally get where you are coming from! I don't feel like I have them normally, but for some reason, this style skirt can make them look like I do. I have one that works for me - in my entire life. I have tried on many. It's kind of like high waisted dresses like the Washi- they will always look rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12000794959264304528noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864688565474192425.post-10735966739588913002016-02-02T10:08:17.157-05:002016-02-02T10:08:17.157-05:00Thanks Elizabeth!Thanks Elizabeth!Mashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364861545043732582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864688565474192425.post-86264610086421837012016-02-02T10:07:56.915-05:002016-02-02T10:07:56.915-05:00Thanks Dasha.

I do like the more a-line shape and after looking at the photos I think I will try again and flare it out even more. I have some black ponte burning a hole in my stash ;)Mashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364861545043732582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6864688565474192425.post-76858475891483421842016-02-02T07:25:39.435-05:002016-02-02T07:25:39.435-05:00This is a great skirt and the red one looks like a...This is a great skirt and the red one looks like a perfect fit. I know the feeling of "is my belly flashing" and that is something I always consider with tops/bottoms too. The photographer in the glass door is precious.

I love skirts like that and will have to make me a couple for summer (though after this pregnancy my leg veins are popping out big time which is worse than saddlebags).

I think mine shows off my saddlebags a bit too, but it's not so bad over a pair of "Assets" tights (which I don't wear for their shapewear-ness, but because they stay put and don't roll down the waist as much as other tights), and I agree with you, I prefer the skirt with a nice long top and cardigan.
