XXL in the black fits great (I'm an 18 at Dress Barn for Women and a 18 or 20 at Avenue) - they look to be very similar to the skirts available from The Avenue a couple of seasons back. Didn't buy the charcoal - too similar to another skirt I already have. Sept 16, 2012. xoxox happy shopping! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa---ellen-tracy-ponte-knit-pencil-skirts-at-costco#post-663969 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 22:38:07 +0000 velvetychocolate 663969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ack - sorry to hear that lyn* - must be one of those cases where they don't always have the same stuff in various Costcos. If I remember right - you're in Canada aren't you? Lots of times I'll tell my Mom about something in Costco, and it's not there at her Vancouver stores. </p> <p>There are some things that are kind of regular there though - I did recommend the non-iron button down shirts for men (Kirkland brand) ...my Mom bought one, and then went back and bought several more for my stepdad. They a lot of the same foods too. </p> <p>In terms of clothing and accessories - I think this can vary wildly. And a lot of these 'one time deals' are just that...only at the store temporarily, whereas the Kirkland men's shirts are there all year round. </p> <p>I think it was just last fall that my local Costco had Elliot Lucca handbags for some insanely great price. But once they were gone, they were gone. </p> <p>Sorry you didn't find the skirts...:( Hope it wasn't a totally wasted trip for you though. Did you get something at least? Maybe a five year supply of ...olive oil? A three year supply of Kirkland body wash? (I like that stuff a lot btw....it's orange scented, and very nice quality). </p> <p>Hope it wasn't a wild goose chase, and that you had reason to be at the store anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa---ellen-tracy-ponte-knit-pencil-skirts-at-costco#post-663958 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 22:28:33 +0000 lyn* 663958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bah; there weren't any at my costco :p just really expensive pi's. Next time! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa---ellen-tracy-ponte-knit-pencil-skirts-at-costco#post-663946 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 21:52:53 +0000 velvetychocolate 663946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! Thank you for posting about your experience with the skirt - I didn't buy one yet, but will be sure to do so next time I'm there.</p> <p>You have made a very good point about the thickness of the knit - hadn't thought of that, and will definitely get one of these skirts (I also have lumps and bumps). I saw only black at my store, but I have two or three grey skirts already. </p> <p>Also - thanks for the review on sizing too - helps a lot when you can't try stuff on in the store and have to go home, try on and possibly go back to return it. </p> <p>By the way, I didn't know this before - but I bought some Carole Hochman "midnight" pajamas there for a gift for someone awhile back, and I learned (after asking) that they have a pretty generous return policy as well. The impression I got was that there wasn't really a time limit, which was useful because I was buying a gift for someone I wasn't going to see for another month or so. </p> <p>Glad the skirt worked out </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa---ellen-tracy-ponte-knit-pencil-skirts-at-costco#post-663919 Sun, 08 Jul 2012 20:12:30 +0000 Abie 663919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the heads up, this was a great find!</p> <p>I got one today. Very nice! The knit is thick enough that the skirt looks great without lining and I rarely wear unlined skirts as I have plenty of lumps and bumps. </p> <p>The sizing went to xxl and i believe started at xs. I usually wear an 18-20 on bottom. The XXL fit well and had some room. It looks nice but I might try the XL too. My Costco had black and charcoal. I'm going back for the charcoal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa---ellen-tracy-ponte-knit-pencil-skirts-at-costco#post-662125 Fri, 06 Jul 2012 01:40:12 +0000 velvetychocolate 662125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Made my bi-weekly trip to Costco this morning, and spied Ellen Tracy ponte knit pencil skirts for $16-something. I didn't buy one (yet), but the quality of the item looked very good, and this would be an extremely useful item to have for fall. At $16-something? You can't possibly lose. </p> <p>The skirt looked like a 'seamed' pencil skirt of sorts - nice material - but not lined. Still though, at around $16...you can't beat this price and quality.</p> <p>editing to add: the only colour available was black. </p>
