You really have to do a double take to see it is a skyline. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/city-lights-skirt-graphic-goodness-or-cringe-worth-kitsch#post-875058 Tue, 12 Mar 2013 00:08:33 +0000 lyn* 875058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY!

Serious envy! That skirt has been my favourite print forever and I seriously wish I could buy it, but I can't seem to find any used ones online. I think it fits into your style description - but then again I'm super biased. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/city-lights-skirt-graphic-goodness-or-cringe-worth-kitsch#post-874996 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 23:08:44 +0000 Angie 874996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I voted YAY </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/city-lights-skirt-graphic-goodness-or-cringe-worth-kitsch#post-874936 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 22:31:36 +0000 Sarah A 874936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it would be great for you!

The black &amp; white scheme helps there. I'd base a lot on fit--if the skirt is very flattering (or whatever term or conditions you use for how it looks when it's on YOU, not what it looks like in the photo), then I should think you will enjoy finding ways to style it and wear it. I say that because I sometimes try a skirt or other item that looks like it ought to be perfect for me, and then it's MEH, or worse, when I get it on. But I don't think the print is the deal-breaker at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/city-lights-skirt-graphic-goodness-or-cringe-worth-kitsch#post-874917 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 22:20:11 +0000 Diana 874917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! And from a distance it looks like an abstract b/w print, so I think it would be pretty versatile to style too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/city-lights-skirt-graphic-goodness-or-cringe-worth-kitsch#post-874913 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 22:18:20 +0000 Janet 874913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's adorable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/city-lights-skirt-graphic-goodness-or-cringe-worth-kitsch#post-874844 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 21:37:05 +0000 milehighstyle (Linda) 874844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A big yay from me - I love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/city-lights-skirt-graphic-goodness-or-cringe-worth-kitsch#post-874828 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 21:17:58 +0000 Karie 874828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the skirt! I say if you loved it before, you should get it now before it is sold out again. It IS a fun, graphic print! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/city-lights-skirt-graphic-goodness-or-cringe-worth-kitsch#post-874824 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 21:15:22 +0000 Raisin 874824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have similar style to you Charmian. I love the minimal, graphic, clean lines. I love this skirt! I think it would be worth it, you loved it BEFORE it went on sale, so it's not sale goggles, and now you get to buy it at a discount. Score! I think it reads as abstract dots as well, and I love that up close it looks like a sky line. It's awesome! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/city-lights-skirt-graphic-goodness-or-cringe-worth-kitsch#post-874819 Mon, 11 Mar 2013 21:11:59 +0000 Charmian 874819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi ladies, I've admired the <em>idea</em> of the <a href="https://www.google.com/search?q=kate+spade+lillith+skirt+city+lights&amp;tbm=isch"> Kate Spade City Lights skirt</a> for almost a year but never acted on it because the skirt had already sold out before I knew it existed. I recently found a used one in my size and am wondering whether my desire to pounce is because it's a Charmian-skirt or something more akin to "sale goggles" (maybe "sold-out goggles")?</p> <p>My biggest fear is that the print comes off like an expensive version of those kitschy "I ♥ New York" t-shirts. To me, the print reads like "abstract white dots" (I didn't even realize it's supposed to be the NY skyline), but I can't tell anymore -- these stupid goggles just won't get out of my way.</p> <p>Please help me decide:<br /> * YAY - looks like a graphic print. Fun, but not too girly-girl/precious.<br /> * NAY - sorry, the print is too precious/sweet/kitschy for your style goals.</p> <p>( ETA about me: minimalist modern classic who loves clean -- almost architectural -- lines and geometric prints ) </p>
