It's edgy and trendy. The old skirt can be kept for when trends change. If it were me, I would keep the colour, but play around with adding a removable long fringe hem. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1641516 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 15:08:55 +0000 citygirldc 1641516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab in both. &nbsp;The first skirt is definitely more edgier than the second and is so you, but then I like the dark color of the second skirt too.That's just me though since I tend to vear toward dark colors in the bottom.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1641514 Fri, 08 Apr 2016 15:04:50 +0000 Momo 1641514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great skirt ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640781 Thu, 07 Apr 2016 14:29:28 +0000 Sara L. 1640781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The new skirt is great!&nbsp; I love those sandals too - I've been stalking them but they're too pricey right now.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640757 Thu, 07 Apr 2016 13:26:10 +0000 Janet 1640757@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all! Lyn, the more casual vibe of the new one is a definite plus in my world! I like that the vibe sort of evokes a pair of cutoff jean shorts, but in a more sophisticated way. </p> <p>Bijou, your "block of color" remark is exactly what I thought about the old skirt once I saw the new one on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640726 Thu, 07 Apr 2016 11:52:52 +0000 lyn67 1640726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, strategical fadding can help if you don't mind beingit more casual, too. I think the new one is much &nbsp;more adorable than the old one, afresh and younger look for sure, and think it fits you like a tee!:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640705 Thu, 07 Apr 2016 10:36:14 +0000 Bijou 1640705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the new skirt and think it is much more flattering that the old one which is more of a block of colour. Whilst the old skirt fits well and there is nothing wrong with it, it pales in comparison to the new skirt. I hope you enjoy your new wardrobe addition - it looks a perfect fit and as denim gives with wear, it is probably good to have it a little snug to begin with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640703 Thu, 07 Apr 2016 10:15:15 +0000 Jjsloane 1640703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the new one. Perfect for you. I"m still intrigued by the DIY pending on the old one and will look forward to what your artist eye comes up with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640674 Thu, 07 Apr 2016 05:14:01 +0000 Gigi 1640674@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! This one embodies your style so much better. I vote keep this one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640457 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 20:00:38 +0000 Mochi 1640457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's really really really cutting-edge cool. Somehow gives this impression of illumination (weird comment, I know). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640454 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 19:59:08 +0000 annagybe 1640454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>New skirt is great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640450 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 19:56:41 +0000 Janet 1640450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Donna, I had the same thought -- thanks for confirming! Hmm, could be interesting.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640443 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 19:52:53 +0000 DonnaF 1640443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm wondering if bleach followed by an overdye would work better in the way that hair color over black hair won't show up unless it is bleached first. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640379 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 18:34:34 +0000 Janet 1640379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! I'm glad this got such positive feedback because I loved it when I put it on…even with the waist being a little snug. And, this skirt is also a reminder to try things on, even if the size on the tag seems one size too small or too large. My eyes told me it could work -- it seemed a touch big for a 6. I'm working on my eating habits and starting to ramp up cycling season, so hopefully that snug waistline issue will subside. Even so, I would wear the skirt today if it were warm enough. It's not uncomfortable, so even if I lose weight and it doesn't come off of the menopausal belly, I will still be able to wear it.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'll hang onto the old skirt for now. I'm intrigued with Liz's idea (I think it was hers!) to overdye. I don't know how to do that, and it has been many years since I attempted to dye anything, but that's what Youtube videos are for, right?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640378 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 18:32:52 +0000 Anonymous 1640378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wait. &nbsp;I was trying to say I liked the new one you found because it is much more authentically "Janet." &nbsp;My wording made it sound like I preferred the original skirt. &nbsp;Sorry for any confusion. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640368 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 18:18:14 +0000 jill58 1640368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, definitely keep! I didn't like the original one--thought you could do better--and so you have! The slightly longer length and the distressing really makes a difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640316 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 16:49:54 +0000 Elizabeth P 1640316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes, much more "you".&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640306 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 16:38:52 +0000 catgirl 1640306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, now I'm a big yes - this is exactly what I'd picture for you and I love it.&nbsp; You've triggered a thought that I will post separately.&nbsp; Happy bleaching! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640288 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 16:00:53 +0000 RoseandJoan 1640288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, this one is more you.</p> <p>Now get to work, Angie's set you some homework </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640287 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 15:58:13 +0000 Bonnie 1640287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the new skirt and am looking forward to seeing how you style it.

The distressing almost makes them look like a pair of shorts. Very cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640267 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 15:30:51 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1640267@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, this has the edge that makes it more "you." I still like the old one, too, though. Could you use both? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640266 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 15:30:44 +0000 abc 1640266@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep, love. &nbsp;The one in pics 3/4 reads more classic and doesn't have that bit of edge you tend to have in your outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640262 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 15:27:28 +0000 Anonymous 1640262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yea! Love it! Definitely more 'you' than the other one. The fading and&nbsp;the unpicked hem look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640257 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 15:22:46 +0000 Colette 1640257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto what Angie said! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/about-that-denim-skirt#post-1640254 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 15:19:29 +0000 El Cee 1640254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your new skirt -- very in line with your style. I agree with Angie that it might be fun to play with the old one now that you do not need it as a place holder.
