I remember when everything I tried on there was small, but I just received a new skirt today...with that in mind I ordered a 10 to be safe...and it is at least a size too big. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19482 Fri, 08 Aug 2008 18:35:23 +0000 Patience 19482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Monica, are you familiar with what jcrew size you wear? If so then I'd say the skirt is consistent. If not, then I'd say jcrew bottoms run big on me in general so you might want to try your normal size and one size down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19411 Fri, 08 Aug 2008 14:15:13 +0000 Monica 19411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And here I was just griping to myself about my difficulty finding denim skirts in styles other than the usual 5-pocket, zip fly "jeans" skirt. I am very impressed. Patience, since you said you had the J. Crew pencil skirt, if you see this post, could you let me know how it runs size-wise, please? Can I believe the size chart on this one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19402 Fri, 08 Aug 2008 13:52:47 +0000 Jillian 19402@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dani, I obviously need your shopping help more often. Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19398 Fri, 08 Aug 2008 13:44:58 +0000 Dani 19398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FYI...the Boden comes in a tall length (20") as well as a shorter length (18"). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19397 Fri, 08 Aug 2008 13:38:05 +0000 Jillian 19397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a good denim skirt and have several, including the Boden one. The Boden one is too short for me (18" in a small size). My favorite is not from this season. My latest might fit your criteria and is a real bargain ($21!). It measures 21.5" in a small size. I'm liking the detailing on the hem: <a href="http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_007A9697000P?vName=Clothing&#038;cName=Women%27s&#038;sName=Skirts" rel="nofollow">http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_1.....ame=Skirts</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19263 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 19:02:22 +0000 Patience 19263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kyle, I just thought of something-- if you are tall that skirt might be too short on you. I'm 5'3" and the regular hits middle of my knees. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19261 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 17:37:19 +0000 Patience 19261@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kyle, I have the first jcrew skirt and I like it a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19244 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:37:55 +0000 Angie 19244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I often have low waisted skirts adjusted to fit my natural waist. I do not like them moving around when I walk. But you have to watch the length. This alteration takes away a bit of length so be sure to check.</p> <p>Try the Nordies skirt. It's beautiful and I have seen it firsthand. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19240 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 14:30:22 +0000 Anonymous 19240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kyle, I'm looking for the same thing, but especially a pencil skirt since that's best for my body type. Almost all are too short or have a dropped waist like the Nordstroms one above in Inge's post. Should one hold out for a regular waist if you want to define the waist and create the look of curved hips or will this low waist style work? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19232 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 08:42:00 +0000 Inge 19232@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same problem Kyle, and I'm 'only' 5'8. I like my skirts to fall on the knee or just below, but each time I see a picture and think 'oh this might work, it definitely falls to the model's knees and she must be taller than me', the skirt then usually is 23 to 25 inches (depending on the cut, 25 inches works for me). Are models shrinking or something?</p> <p>Anyway, here are a few more suggestions:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2973583?cm_cat=datafeed&#038;cm_pla=bottoms:women:skirt&#038;cm_ite=classiques_entier(r)_denim_skirt:221261&#038;cm_ven=Linkshare&#038;mr:referralID=c06cf077-6459-11dd-9333-000423bb4e95" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....0423bb4e95</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/S+MAX+MARA/dept/women/tskay/3FD17CD7/rr/1/cod10/421184011L/sts/sr_women80" rel="nofollow">http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/.....sr_women80</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/DG/dept/women/tskay/3FD17CD7/rr/1/cod10/421165591L/sts/sr_women80" rel="nofollow">http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/.....sr_women80</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/WEEKEND+MAX+MARA/dept/women/tskay/3FD17CD7/rr/1/cod10/421184091L/sts/sr_women80" rel="nofollow">http://www.yoox.com/item/YOOX/.....sr_women80</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.tobi.com/product/10481-stewart-brown-pleat-skirt-skirts?cmp=shp" rel="nofollow">http://www.tobi.com/product/10.....ts?cmp=shp</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.revolveclothing.com/DisplayProduct.jsp?product=TRUE-WD25&#038;c=True+Religion&#038;d=5&#038;sc=Dresses+%26+Skirts&#038;source=shopstyle" rel="nofollow">http://www.revolveclothing.com.....=shopstyle</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.newport-news.com/shop/product_ensemble.aspx?ifn=S0816020_NBE08_030&#038;effort=1P&#038;style_id=32959146&#038;index=5&#038;gp_coll_id=9&#038;gp_cat_id=1649&#038;nav_cat_id=8853&#038;category_id=9259&#038;gp_fashcoll_id=5637" rel="nofollow">http://www.newport-news.com/sh.....ll_id=5637</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19211 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 02:59:11 +0000 Angie 19211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you're willing to pay a little more, try shopstyle.com.

I think I would be open to a pencil or an a-line -- I might get both! I wonder how the lower waist on the second J Crew would flatter... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19198 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 02:20:04 +0000 shell 19198@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i really like the two dani suggested from j crew. well actually i like all of them, but something more fitted would look nice with boots or sandals. my vote is for #3, only b/c the second one is maybe a bit too corporate for the styles you're suggesting. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19192 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 02:01:46 +0000 Dani 19192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kyle, I've been looking at this one from Boden:<br /> <a href="http://www.bodenusa.com/col.asp?styid=WG299&#038;segname=Women&#038;segid=6&#038;gpname=Skirts&#038;desname=Authentic+Denim+Skirt&#038;gpid=26&#038;gen=1&#038;col=DAR" rel="nofollow">http://www.bodenusa.com/col.as.....38;col=DAR</a></p> <p>Here's a few at J Crew:<br /> <a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Feature_Assortment/NewArrivals/skirts/PRDOVR~96120/96120.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../96120.jsp</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/WomenBrowse/Women_Shop_By_Category/skirts/pencil/PRDOVR~94850/94850.jsp" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Brows...../94850.jsp</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19190 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 01:48:26 +0000 Ana 19190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you looking for a denim pencil skirt, or an a-line skirt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-skirt-1#post-19189 Thu, 07 Aug 2008 01:41:07 +0000 Kyle 19189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Does anyone have any good ideas about where to find a stylish, dark wash, knee length denim skirt? I keep finding either minis, or really long and dowdy, or light washes that are too casual. I'd like something really versatile to wear with everything from sandals to boots. Suggestions? This would be such a great foundation item. </p>
