Full Skirts

[avojuice]

i do not know if these skirts are still trendy, but not too long ago i bought a boho- looking full circle skirt (is this the correct term?)
and although i love it i do not know what shoes or top to match with with. help~ i tried posting photos but its kind of difficult to take close up shots of your own bottom half


pardon the roll of tummy fats spilling over!!

[ShoppingQueenie]

I think this skirt can go with many kinds of shoes like - Sandals for weekend look or pumps for a slight formal look

[avojuice]

this skirt kind of "puff" out at the hips area...maybe wedges?

[ShoppingQueenie]

I imagine >> Look nice

[charms]

i think almost any kind of shoes would be fine, best with sandals for bohemian look For tops, i think something fitting would be best

[avojuice]

fitting bohemian tops are those thin, tops i see at the push cart at cineleisure? but those are usually loose fitting ones

[vernis]

me in dreamy state.... wooo... wooo... with long ribbon espadrilles will be nice too....

[avojuice]

vernis you just reminded me of those cherry ones i saw on the gojane.website!! i have overspent for this month

I'm not going to be of much help here...

Your skirt isn't actually a circle skirt. A circle skirt should form a full (or almost full) circle of material when laid down outer-side up, and usually doesn't have the gathers at the top. So when it's worn, it has a very wide flare to it, lots of excess material, giving a very swishy effect when you move. Last season there were loads of them on the Banana Republic site, and I saw a couple at Zara too.

Does your skirt very full anyway, with a very wide hem? It looks like a dirndl skirt to me, what with the gathers. Great for a folksy look.

Check this article out. Apparently tight and mini are out, loose and breezy are IN.

this considered a potential Full Circle Skirt? :huh:

[snowrunner]

minis are never really out of fashion.. so long as girls still like guys....

[vernis]

so mine is a fool skirt..

Actually vernis' one looks like it could be. Looks quite wide! Open it up and spread it out on the floor and see whether you get a circle. I really like the look of circle skirts, but gosh, they make your arse look HUGE. Not for the short and pear-shaped, like moi!

You can still see a few of them on the BR site, I just can't link the pictures here for you. Gap has one too now in an eyelet fabric.

:eh: thanks for the advice but what is a dirndl skirt?? folksy look is it the hippie look?? i'm not very good at this....

I'll pair it with a fitted cami or tube and kitten heels or beaded flats, and top it off with a bohemian-y necklace
