Well worth the purchase. I would love to be quints with you guys so if anyone finds a 10 or a 12 laying around, you gotta hook a girl up! londonkiwi (now back in NZ) on "My most expensive purchase - ever!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-most-expensive-purchase-ever#post-128373 Thu, 25 Feb 2010 12:27:37 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 128373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love the skirt, it has such attitude!

I'm so glad that the skirt aligns with my style well. I'm going to play around with outfit ideas this weekend and post pictures. Sarah, That is so awesome! Please post pictures :-) Ana, you inspire me no end so I do hope you don't think I was trying to copy you! ;-) I've been so busy lately with work, it's not funny. I sat down so many times tonight, determined to reply to this thread and others but was called away by phone calls and emails. I do grab every chance I can to read everyone's threads but I miss talking to you all!

I am speechless! It is simply stunning on you (and you know, when I say simply, I mean it in that totally southie way!). I really like it with that black button down but there are so many styling options, my head is spinning. Totally HOT!

Add heels, moto jacket, blazer or denim jacket and you are IN BUSINESS. It's the expensive stuff in my wardrobe that hands down gets the most mileage. Perhaps you'll find that too. Srujana on "My most expensive purchase - ever!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-most-expensive-purchase-ever#post-128151 Wed, 24 Feb 2010 17:33:10 +0000 Srujana 128151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ That skirt looks ridiculously hot on you! I never saw the older posts, but all the fuss over this skirt is definitely worth it, and you pull it off fabulously!

I second what Marianne said; it suits your style. I often look at your "What I Wore" because I like the way you style your outfits. marianne on "My most expensive purchase - ever!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-most-expensive-purchase-ever#post-128140 Wed, 24 Feb 2010 16:56:22 +0000 marianne 128140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The skirt is lovely, Vani! I too remember it from last year. It doesn't look snug at all and it suits your style very well. Vani on "My most expensive purchase - ever!" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-most-expensive-purchase-ever#post-128134 Wed, 24 Feb 2010 16:49:53 +0000 Vani 128134@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ When Maya posted <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/does-anyone-know-the-origins-of-this-amazing-skirt">this</a> a few weeks ago, I went looking on ebay and saved a search for all Marc Jacobs skirts. I was pleasantly surprised when this skirt popped up one day. I've actually been in love with it since I saw it on Ana on her blog. It was expensive since it is new, with tags, (more than my leather jacket!) but I just had to have it. It is a size 8 and I usually wear an 8 or a 10. It is definitely snug right now but I've been steadily losing weight and (a tiny few) inches so I'm hoping I'll fit into it soon. It is also a huge motivation for me now to continue what I'm doing! <a href="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/skirts/mj_fishnet_skirt/IMG_4874.jpg">Pic 1</a> <a href="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/skirts/mj_fishnet_skirt/IMG_4875.jpg">Pic 2</a> I cannot return this skirt, so if it looks awful, I'll just try reselling it on ebay.
