I think for my particular lifestyle, it doesn't make sense to keep too many shorter skirts because I prefer to keep my legs covered. I very rarely wear tights (bar interviews &amp; the last time I tried them out on the forum, haha) &amp; so I'd have to wait for knee-high boots weather to wear them (which doesn't last very long in Hong Kong, unfortunately). </p> <p>I might see about taking in the waistband &amp; shortening the copper maxi a little to just above the ankle, so it doesn't look as heavy. As for the shorter skirts, I may keep one for now (seems the floral one gets more votes) but then keep the teal one in my UK wardrobe. Although maintaining two wardrobes across the globe has been a bit of a headache for me, so I'm thinking of simplifying everything to just live out of my suitcase whenever I'm back home. Decisions, decisions! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2105081 Mon, 09 Mar 2020 22:50:35 +0000 Angie 2105081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think a midi length would work better on the copper skirt.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2105038 Mon, 09 Mar 2020 19:42:20 +0000 Carla 2105038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep the teal and the floral. &nbsp;Sorry, no love for the maxi. &nbsp;:-( </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104977 Mon, 09 Mar 2020 15:34:51 +0000 kellygirl 2104977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha. Yes, I have a maxi dress that's just this length that I need to get altered to show a little more ankle. It's kind of a stumpifying length--I think because it's just a wall of fabric.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104956 Mon, 09 Mar 2020 14:28:52 +0000 avicennia 2104956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep the floral skirt — it quite lovely on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104952 Mon, 09 Mar 2020 14:21:36 +0000 Mirjana 2104952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, just that in front. You can see in my last two posts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104919 Mon, 09 Mar 2020 12:30:04 +0000 lyn67 2104919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the&nbsp; colors of the unicolored/single colored ones(gold and teal)!:-) And I meant that the gold fabric pulls a bit downward, yes-excuse my not so correct English. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104829 Mon, 09 Mar 2020 02:33:48 +0000 Zaeobi 2104829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@kellygirl I think part of the issue is that the waistband is too big to sit at my natural waist - will try hiking it up a little &amp; see if that helps the silhouette. I guess the new pants length hasn't translated to skirts yet, lol. I have a yellow draped tank that might work, but that may look like colour overkill. </p> <p>@Beth Ann I may need to try it with a more blousy top than a turtleneck for the draped tuck. Do you think a peplum top could work, too? </p> <p>@rachylou Oh it may not be clear from the photos but the floral skirt comes with a belt in the same silky satin type of fabric - I've just cinched it through the belt loops at the waist &amp; tied the tails at the back so people could see the skirt shape better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104823 Mon, 09 Mar 2020 00:41:32 +0000 rachylou 2104823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the real. I’m not sure I understand the floral ... something is going on at the back, at the waist... is that a bow tie? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104769 Sun, 08 Mar 2020 18:30:54 +0000 Beth Ann 2104769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes to the floral and the teal!</p> <p>When I tuck these days, I often "tuck and blouse," by which I mean that after I tuck, I loosen and drape the shirt slightly.&nbsp; This is partly because I move so much, and it allows for movement without ruining the look, but I also find it looks good!&nbsp; You might give this, or a semi tuck, a try! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104761 Sun, 08 Mar 2020 17:47:40 +0000 kellygirl 2104761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the teal untucked and the floral is just flat out gorgeous on you. I like the copper but it seems like it needs to be just a bit shorter if it's not full length. I'd try the copper with a draped tank for summer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104731 Sun, 08 Mar 2020 16:29:36 +0000 Zaeobi 2104731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@slim cat Yes I bought the floral skirt a while back - knew there was a reason that I haven't culled it yet! Burgundy is a combination I hadn't thought of yet - would khaki look strange, do you think?</p> <p>@Janet &amp; @Jenni NZ &amp; @Joy - seems the copper maxi skirt isn't getting much love! I really wanted to love it but something about it just feels off - @lyn67 by weight, do you mean that it looks heavy or that you think it's pulling downwards? I'm wondering if they cheaped out a little on the bias construction (it doesn't really look too bias but it does have a flounced or ruffled looking hem). I can't quite put my finger on it... Also sorry but what did you mean by 'for the unis'? </p> <p>@notsaf I agree - I'm really liking @lyn67's suggestion to tie a knot in my top instead. Could a peplum top work too? </p> <p>@Angie I think it's supposed to be asymmetrical but it's hard to tell on my hips lol - there's a side slit over one knee, where it flounces a little more on the other knee. Interesting that you feel the copper maxi is too long - it stops above my feet, so do you think an ankle length would work better? Just worried about hemming something with a flounced hem... May have to try it with proper footwear to see</p> <p>@Mirjana do you mean just tucking in the front but not the back? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104730 Sun, 08 Mar 2020 16:28:55 +0000 Mirjana 2104730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The floral skirt is beautiful, and the teal skirt is nice to. Maybe try with semi- tucked top, sometimes it solves the problem to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104721 Sun, 08 Mar 2020 15:52:30 +0000 Bee 2104721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the floral and the teal. Floral seems to be the best fit. For the teal, I think untucked looks better, and I love the styling with boots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104555 Sat, 07 Mar 2020 20:09:50 +0000 Angie 2104555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the floral a lot! FABULOUS on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>The teal skirt is wonderful too - is it asymmetrical? Not pulling across the tummy too much at all. Looks great :)</p> <p>The maxi fits quite well, although I find it a bit long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104554 Sat, 07 Mar 2020 20:08:10 +0000 Anonymous 2104554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with slim cat and like the floral best. You could try a grey, silver or navy top with the copper color. Or wear a print top with copper in the print and a long topper in another color in the print. I like the untucked version best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104533 Sat, 07 Mar 2020 19:07:04 +0000 lyn67 2104533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, beautifull colors here for the unis esp, I think first one is a bit big on hips and too long-(and weighty? can be styled&nbsp; beautiful for&nbsp; dressy with a white button down shirt tucked in or knoted on waist like Sharon Stone's timeless look-) teal can have potential&nbsp; with an over the waist top-the floral is perfect!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104529 Sat, 07 Mar 2020 18:58:06 +0000 Jenni NZ 2104529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>PS: No, I don’t think the teal is pulling too much across the stomach. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104528 Sat, 07 Mar 2020 18:56:51 +0000 Jenni NZ 2104528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the floral best, out of sight. Then the teal which I think hangs better than the copper. Floral looks great as you have styled it.<br /> As my body has slowly changed from primarily a pear to secondarily an apple, I have personally preferred less clingy than the copper satin in skirts, which is likely why I give that opinion- my own preferences are colouring what I say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104525 Sat, 07 Mar 2020 18:23:10 +0000 notsaf 2104525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie will have more to say about styling, but I think it’s tough to tuck anything into this kind of bias cut skirt fwiw. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104518 Sat, 07 Mar 2020 17:21:19 +0000 Janet 2104518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the teal and the floral. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104507 Sat, 07 Mar 2020 16:57:55 +0000 slim cat 2104507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Floral skirt looks the best fit/color to my eye. The print usually distracts from any imperfections we see in our body/shape. Any color pulled from the print can be combined in outfit. Dark blue, burgundy, white for summer...<br />The teal skirt is looking very nice with boots. I'm not sure about copper satin skirt - seems the most difficult to play with. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-my-slip-skirts#post-2104499 Sat, 07 Mar 2020 16:41:48 +0000 Zaeobi 2104499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's been a while! Trying these skirts on &amp; seeing how they all cling/ drape differently confuses me even further about my body shape - think I'm a pear with a belly? If there's one you think I should keep or cull, please let me know if you have styling tips for it (I prefer to stay more covered up).
